In the Tajima region, where population decline is advancing, the Professional College of Arts and Culture Tourism, established in Toyooka City in 2021, is expected to serve as a core driver of regional revitalization. Students reside for four years, learning about local resources and challenges through practical training and club activities, while deepening exchanges with residents to foster attachment to the area. This leads to employment and settlement after graduation, with the increase in “related population” supporting sustainable community development. The university has established a regional collaboration hub, working with government, educational institutions, and businesses to carry out numerous projects annually, while promoting citizen understanding through initiatives such as the Toyooka Theater Festival. Student-led activities, including the development of tourism content and the creation of dining maps, strengthen ties with local residents and highlight the university’s significance. Interviews with graduates and current students reveal that practical training and community engagement are key factors in fostering settlement intentions. Meanwhile, perspectives from migrants point out discrepancies between administrative and resident views of regional revitalization, indicating the need for the university to function as a mediator bridging both sides. In conclusion, the university is not merely an educational institution but a nucleus for co-creating a community where graduates wish to remain, thereby enhancing the sustainability of the region. |
