Its mission was to train broadcasting engineers that could meet the demands of the expanding television industry. Subsequently, the Hokuriku Broadcasting High School was also founded and, in 1962, it was renamed Kanazawa Technical College (KTC). The Hokuriku Broadcasting School shortly after became the Kanazawa Institute of Technology in 1965. Currently, the KIT/KTC campus has about 6,300 undergraduate students, 500 graduate students, 110 technical college students and more than 670 faculty members. In April 2018, KTC has changed its name to International College of Technology (ICT) in order to promote itself as Japan’s foremost global technical college. The school has been working to transform its curriculum and educational environment into one that can produce innovators who can play active roles in the global community.
