About Tokyo Tech
The National University Corporation Evaluation is conducted by the National University Corporation Evaluation Committee within the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology every fiscal year and at the end of 6-year mid-term objectives periods to evaluate progress in mid-term plans and the annual plans of national university corporations and inter-university research institute corporations.
For evaluations conducted at the end of mid-term objectives periods, the National University Corporation Evaluation Committee delegates the National Institution for Academic Degrees and Quality Enhancement of Higher Education to conduct the evaluation of education and research, which the NIAD-QE specializes in. The results of the evaluation by NIAD-QE are highly regarded.
The following self-assessment indicates the progress of the evaluation indicators of the 4th mid-term plan. The following four levels of evaluation are used for the evaluation indicators.

An evaluation was conducted in FY 2008 of performance in the four years from FY2004 to FY2007 to serve as the basis for "Evaluation of performance in the mid-term objectives period (1st period: FY2004-FY2009)."
The evaluation assists in reexamining the overall state of their organization and performance conducted voluntarily by national university corporations and in formulating mid-term objectives and mid-term plans for the next mid-term period. The valuation is conducted one year before the end of the current mid-term objectives period so that results can be reflected in computing operating expenses and government subsidies for the next mid-term objectives period.
