Management System

The National Institution for Academic Degrees and Quality Enhancement of Higher Education (NIAD-QE) has established a Steering Committee for Japanese College and University Portraits (JPCUP). The Steering Committee discusses how to manage JPCUP. NIAD-QE provides a platform for initiatives common to national, public and private universities and colleges. NIAD-QE also deals with information about national and public universities and colleges, and the Promotion and Mutual Aid Corporation for Private Schools of Japan deals with information on private universities and colleges. These two bodies work together to ensure that JPCUP system operates effectively.
NIAD-QE’s Center for Japanese College and University Portraits is responsible for the collection, management, publication and application, based on the management policy determined by the Steering Committee.

The Steering Committee is composed of members from the following stakeholders:

The Japan Association of National Universities, The Japan Association of Public Universities, Japan Association of Public Junior Colleges, Federation of Japanese Private Colleges and Universities Associations, The Association of Private Junior Colleges in Japan
