In addition to contributing to the progress in educational research, the center shares its intellectual property with the local community and local businesses. We aim to establish a cycle of intellectual creativity through contributing to local residents’ pursuit of life-long education and community projects. In May of 2004, the Regional Collaboration and Research Center, the Life-long Education Center and the Center of Instrumental Analysis merged to form the current center. In addition to the merger, incubation facilities and a new section for intellectual property as well as a section for regional and legal affairs support were added and the center has since been active as a unifier of the university and local community.
