Foreign language/second language education
Research theme
Language is inseparable from society and the economy, and therefore how we deal with language is a very important issue.

Specialized Field
International Management, Business Strategy (mainly standardization strategy), Software Business Research
Research theme
Cooperation and competition surrounding the standardization of embedded system software In recent years, mobile phones and automobiles have become increasingly sophisticated, but at the same time, their development has become more and more difficult. As a result, companies that were previously rivals have formed groups and are now cooperating with each other, aiming to improve "quality" and "development efficiency." However, even though they may simply refer to cooperation, there are differences in each party's intentions, making it not an easy task. How can we make it work? With this issue in mind, we are currently conducting research.
