Tohoku University Cognitive Neuroscience Application Center

The information society, including internationalization and advances in AI, changes in social thought, and changes in regional, social, and business environments, have made it increasingly unclear what human resources skills will be required in the future and how they will be developed.
Various keywords such as “thinking for oneself,” “comprehensive knowledge,” and “breaking down vertical divisions” are being bandied about as required abilities, but there are no concrete definitions or evaluation methods.
Furthermore, while there are empirical proposals on how to cultivate these skills, such as the importance of “experience,” “action,” and “stories,” there is little scientific verification of such proposals.
This symposium aims to scientifically define the human resource abilities required in future society and how to develop them from a multifaceted approach (social, psychological, cognitive, and brain), and to construct a new fusion academic field to realize their development through education, social design, and product creation (education, economics, law, and engineering).
