Improving the University's Information Infrastructure.
In response to the global pandemic, Tohoku University has reformed its administrative services to fit the needs of students, faculty, staff, as well as community members. We reorganized and improved every workflow and administrative tradition that seemed "conventional" in order to not only overcome difficulties, but to create the best experience and environment for all.
Here is a list of various digital assets available to Tohoku University members.
