Practical educational environment with world-class business systems
Full-Scale training of practitioners through the introduction of SAP's ERP package
In order to foster advanced practitioners in the field of IT, we have introduced SAP S/4 HANA, an ERP system from Germany's company, SAP, the world's largest ERP* (enterprise resource planning) package vendor, for educational use, creating a practical learning and research environment.SAP systems are used by more than 320,000 companies in over 180 countries (according to figures released by SAP as of December 2025), making them a global standard.This system has been introduced for the purpose of education of management information management. There are few other cases in Japan where it is introduced for the purpose of full-fledged ERP professional education including system development. This is one of the features of KCGI, Japan’s first IT professional graduate school.
Effective Use in Management
SAP's ERP system is a huge and complex system.The objective is not only to learn how to operate SAP's ERP systems, but also to learn the flow of business processing in a company, and to acquire advanced and practical skills for customizing to support business operations and consulting regarding ERP implementation in a company.
Developing Advanced Practical Skills
Our students will examine how the SAP S/4HANA System works and what kind of operations it can support, and through a practical introduction of ERP they will learn how businesses change covering a wide range of industry-focused topics such as purchasing inventory, production, sales logistics, accounting, and personnel management.Students will challenge ERP implementation in various industries, study and analyze the characteristics of the industry, and consider the customizing methods suitable for the industry through the Master Project. As a result, students aspiring to become ERP consultants aim not only to learn how to customize systems for representative industries but also to acquire the knowledge needed to consult on ERP implementations across a wide range of industries by learning how to customize systems for the specific business needs of other sectors.Add-ons will be developed if needed.SAP S/4HANA is an ERP system with built-in machine learning and advanced analytics, and has a conventional GUI screen and the Fiori User Interface.Students can learn about the latest technology at our school and also learn the use of HANA, an in-memory process technology that is one of the most important technologies in the loT (Internet of Things) era, using actual equipment.
Through courses in the ERP specialization, our university has produced students who have passed the “SAP Certified Consultant” certification exam.We've supported the latest version of SAP's S/4HANA test since the 2019 Fiscal Year.
