The University aims to contribute to the future of work, the future of living, and the future of people. In particular, the development of human capital (with entrepreneurial and design thinking skills) is important for these endeavors. Moreover, the Greater Bay Area is becoming an international center of innovation, which requires the establishment of an active ecosystem of both venture capital and entrepreneurship, as well as more talents with an open mind and creative thinking skills.
