Nippon Bunri University

In 1955, Yukio Suga, founder of the University, became the principal of "Saeki Industrial High School" (currently the Japanese High School attached to Nippon Bunri University). At the time of Japan's rapid economic growth, at the time when it was urgent to train personnel who became an immediate fight in the regional industry, Oita had various possibilities as an industrial and industrial activity base in the Seto Inland Sea Cultural Region.
