In Japan, however, the importance of global standardization has not sufficiently recognized, and human resources who can draw up international standards have been shorthanded. Also, the education to produce human resources concerning with global standardization has been insufficient. In this paper, the current situation of the education for the global standardization is studied and analyzed. Next, based on books and literatures published so far, the significance of global standardization and the knowledge on the procedure at the organization, R&D including intellectual property right, business strategy, competitiveness in international market, negotiation, and conceptual ability are defined as knowledge congeries that should be studied by those who are in charge of global standardization.

Furthermore, the progress of the lecture is reported, and the results of the questionnaires for students who are studying this education program are shown as a kind of evaluation of the program.
