The Department of International Cooperation for Medical Education is responsible for promoting international level of educational cooperation in the field of medical education. We demonstrate leadership in international cooperation projects related with medical education mainly in developing countries, aiming for “face-to-face” and “interpersonal communication.” In addition, with regard to international cooperation in the medical education field both at home and abroad, we strive for information gathering and humane interaction, and provide supports to related projects in Japan. Furthermore, we are also working on human resource development as the only academic institution in Japan in the field.
