Past and Ongoing Initiatives

Joint Project for Female Researchers in Science and Engineering through Cooperation with Other Organizations

The university has been implementing the project, which aims to improve the ratio of female researchers in science and engineering, in partnership with Shibaura Institute of Technology and the National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) since FY 2014. We have held on-site tours of companies and research institutes in Tour at NIMS (FY201S) science and engineering for female junior high and high school and undergraduate and graduate school students, exchange meetings for senior female researchers, and events to strengthen faculty's skills. This project has been adopted as a Program to Support Research Activities of Female Researchers (Hubs and Collaborations) (FY 2014 to 2016), which is a part of the Science and Technology Human Resources Development Aid Program by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (mainly for students and researchers at our university and partner organizations).

Achieving Work-Life Balance COSMOS

The Center for Leadership Education and Research has been making efforts in the improvement of working conditions, which allow us to work in very diverse ways. Our effort to achieve a work-life balance includes the following:

Expanding support programs focusing on childcare and nursing care
Changing the way people work through initiatives like No Overtime Day
Developing a research-assistant system for researchers caring for children or family members
Raising awareness about gender equality

This effort is called “COSMOS” (Career Opportunity Support Model from Ochanomizu Scientists). We assume a leading role in encouraging a work-life balance for employees in other universities as well.
