Cyber University was founded in April 2007 as Japan’ s first full online university. All student engagement can be conducted online including taking examinations without leaving their homes. Cyber University offers more than 130 online courses to approximately 2,500 full time students each semester. In this article, we describe the outline of our best practice on information engineering education from human resources development perspective. The organizational effort is not only on technological innovation but also on networking with other academic institutions for synergetic academic collaboration.
