Providing every person with opportunities to work is one of important issues in the world. In these issues, the employment of elderly persons or persons with disabilities is more important problem in Japan. Creating an inclusive society, "a society for all", is one of the best ways to improve this problem effectively. At this society, providing opportunities to learn techniques is important to support a person with disability for engineering students. In order to touch welfare situations for students, we have tackled development of an internship program and a company tour with a special subsidiary company (SSC) and a welfare organization. As results of interview surveys, we found that SSC has not only welfare values but also educational values for society. These results suggested that industry-welfare-academia collaboration is one possible way for growing welfare mind engineers.
