Suwa University of Science
About Suwa University of Science
Basic information and contact details for Suwa University of Science
Suwa University of Science is located in the large town of Chino in Nagano, Japan. Formerly a private university, Suwa University of Science became public in 2018.
In 1881, 21 young scientists envisioned "building a better future with science". This led to the establishment of the university’s predecessor, Tokyo Academy of Physics. Suwa College was then established in 1990 and became Suwa University of Science in 2002.
The area of Suwa is often referred to as "Eastern Switzerland" owing to its pure air and clean water. The district is surrounded by beautiful scenery including high land lakes, striking canyons and the volcanic mountains of Yatsugatake.
The university has become a hub of knowledge in the Suwa area. It helps to improve regional industry and culture by creating jobs for local people. It also teaches students how to adapt to the rapid development of science and technology.
The university seeks to educate students in engineering and business administration. It hopes that its graduates will contribute to the development of the region, the rest of Japan and eventually the world. This can be achieved through new industries that are created by scientific and technological advancements.
As a university of science, the only undergraduate faculty is engineering, and within it are two departments for students to specialise in. The faculty of applied information engineering includes the study of artificial intelligence, software design, and media expression technology. The faculty of mechanical and electrical engineering has courses in aerospace, environmental energy management, and innovative manufacturing.

Nazarbayev University
Kazakhstan, Astana (ex Tselinograd)
Nazarbayev University (NU) is signalling a step change in its research ambitions. Our new President, Professor Waqar Ahmad, has committed NU to becoming a globally outstanding research-intensive university. To do this, we are strengthening our academic leadership. Professor Rehan Sadiq has joined us as Provost, from his role as Provost and Vice President at the University of British Columbia (Okanagan Campus). Professor Bjorn Birgisson, a world-class research leader, is joining NU as Vice Provost Research and Innovation. Other outstanding leadership positions will be announced in the coming weeks. The Vice Dean Research and Innovation is part of this drive to enhance research leadership at NU, to enable us to achieve our potential as an internationally competitive research-intensive university. NU is a young institution in Kazakhstan, conceived as a beacon of excellence, and thus holds significant strategic value for the country's and the region’s development. Our students are equivalent in ability to those attending the Ivy League or the Russell Group universities. Faculty come from around 60 nationalities, mostly with doctorates from leading, research-intensive universities. The School of Sciences and Humanities (SSH) comprises 220 faculty members and 2,500 undergraduate students. It encompasses basic sciences, social sciences and humanities disciplines. Research is at the heart of NU’s identity. We invest substantial amounts in research infrastructure and projects and compete for external research funds. While we can take pride in our research achievements, our current performance does not fully reflect our potential. Nor does the current position of 401-500 in the Times Higher World University Rankings reflect our strengths. The VDRI’s role will be to enhance productivity and quality of research across the School. Considering that 80% of SSH relates to STEM areas, your disciplinary background will be in the physical sciences (chemistry, mathematics or physics) but you will understand social sciences and humanities sufficiently to provide leadership across the School. To command authority and respect in the role you will hold Full Professorship with proven leadership experience and a record of developing research groups and individual scholars, and attracting research funds. As VDRI, you will be instrumental in achieving our ambitious goals by driving research excellence across all the discipline areas of SSH, fostering innovation, and strengthening NU's global academic standing. You will work closely with the Dean and Executive Committee of SSH as well as the Vice Provost Research and Innovation and the Provost. Benefits Nazarbayev University offers an internationally competitive compensation and benefits package, which includes: Internationally competitive salary Free fully furnished housing Relocation support International health insurance for faculty and dependents residing in Astana Education allowance for dependent children residing in Astana Application Instructions To apply, please submit the following documents: Cover letter outlining your vision for research leadership at SSH Detailed curriculum vitae Three letters of recommendation.
