There has been increasing discussion about improving business education in universities in order to cultivate human resources with outstanding capabilities in both scholarship and Information Technologies, and who are equipped to create value-added assets and services with the aid of the information technologies.
Tokyo University of Technology has organized a research and development project entitled “Tangible Software Engineering Education and Research”. The project is part of the “Program promoting the leveling of private university academic research,” in which the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology invited public participation for the academic year 2007.
The symposium is a platform for researchers to present novel results, for the transfer of research results to educational practice, and for the presentation of educational experiences that can inform new research directions. The symposium has poster sessions for all accepted papers, keynote sessions for invited professionals, and a panel session.
Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to:
- Programming education
