In October 2021, Tokyo University of Technology joined the Global Technology Initiative (GTI) Consortium.

With the purpose of “assuring the quality of engineering and science education,” “fostering human resources,” “driving innovations,” and “enforcing industry competitiveness,” the GTI Consortium currently consists of nine government and administrative agencies, forty universities both in and outside of Japan, and 182 industry participants.

Moving forward, TUT will be pushing for international exchange with overseas university and industry members through international research collaborations and inter-university cooperation.
