In Asian countries with rapid economic growth, CO2 emissions from the use of cars and motorcycles are increasing. Globally, the increase is most pronounced in China, but emissions are also on the rise in ASEAN countries, where the SDGs clearly state that CO2 emissions must be reduced, and ESG investment is gaining attention and strength worldwide. Japan’s public transportation system, especially in the Tokyo metropolitan area, is a complex mess, but each route is organically connected to each other. Moreover, urban development is being planned along the routes. In addition to the domestic market, railroads and urban development are expanding internationally to India, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Australia. At the same time, the railroad companies are taking the initiative in reducing their environmental impact further, such as through zero emissions.
Students in this program learn about these efforts through lectures by faculty members of the university and lectures by guests from companies. In addition, through group work and presentations, students consider models for deployment in other countries, thereby consolidating their knowledge.

急速に経済成長が進むアジア諸国では、自動車やバイクの利用によるCO2排出量が増加している。世界的に見ると、中国での増加量が顕著であるが、ASEAN諸国においても排出量は増加傾向にある。SDGsではCO2の排出量削減が明記されており、世界的にもESG投資が注目され、その流れは強くなってきている。日本の公共交通システム、特に首都圏のシステムは複雑に入り乱れながらも、それぞれの路線が有機的に結びつきあっている。また、路線沿線は計画的に都市開発されている。さらに国内だけでなく、インド、タイ、インドネシア、ベトナム、豪州など、鉄道と都市開発を通して国際展開している。と同時に鉄道各社はゼロエミッションなど、更なる環境負荷の軽減に率先して取り組んでいる。
これらの取り組みを、本学教員の講義と企業関係者からの講演を通して学ぶ。さらに、グループワークと発表を通して各国への展開モデルを考えることで、知識を定着させる。日本の公共交通システムの先端的な取り組みや環境に配慮した経営を理解を深めることで、日本での就職、また、現地日系企業への就職を促進する。
