Thank you for visiting the web site of the MBA Program within the Graduate School of Commerce and Management at Hitotsubashi University. This course was established in 1996. A notable characteristic of this program that contrasts with the usual type of MBA is that in many ways it requires students to think far more deeply. Although we aim to produce students with requisite management skills and knowledge, the program goes further, striving to cultivate talented individuals who are able to meet society's needs by analyzing, thinking critically, and seeking answers to issues of concern in business management, an activity that is a characteristically human phenomenon. This approach is founded on the belief that the only way for corporations and society to maintain long-term competitiveness is through the continuous acquisition of such enlightened individuals. If you seek training that will enable you to critically analyze and discover practical solutions to current problems facing management and corporations, then the MBA Program at Hitotsubashi University's Graduate School of Commerce and Management is the right place for you.

Motohiro Morishima, Director of MBA Program and Professor of Graduate School of Commerce and Management, Hitotsubashi University
