Takarazuka University Of Art And Design
Satellite Building, Osaka, Japan
Japan's prestigious Takarazuka University of Art and Design was founded in 1987 to facilitate traditional art and design education while encouraging new opportunities made possible by on-going technological innovation. The University seeks to foster creativity in various fields of study, provide students with professional art and design expertise, and make a lasting contribution to the industry and society at large. To help support this mission, the University unveiled a new satellite facility in Osaka in the spring of 2002, housing the University's Division of Continuing Education.
