Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology started a new department on “the ubiquitous and universal information environment” in October 2005 funded by MEXT. It has a purpose to give an education on the human characteristics to engineering students so that they may be able to design useful products in industry after graduation. Human Centered Design course was included in the program that is based on the notion of HCD in ISO13407 and the combination of the lecture and the exercise was given to students. The evaluation by students was quite positive.
