Overview
Aomori Chuo Junior College is a private junior college in Aomori Prefecture run by the Aomori Tanaka Gakuen school corporation, which was founded in 1946 with an abacus and bookkeeping school and a dressmaking school.
The college opened in 1970 as Aomori Chuo Women's Junior College with a home economics department and took its present name in 1974. Over the following decades the college separated its home economics department into specializations, established an early childhood education department in 1974, added a management information department in 1988 and created an advanced course in welfare.
The food and nutrition course became the Department of Food and Nutrition in 1988, and the early childhood program was later renamed the Department of Infant Education. Today the college offers two departments, Food and Nutrition and Infant Education.
It shares a campus group with Aomori Chuo Gakuin University, which opened in 1998, and the same school corporation also runs kindergartens attached to the college.
The college also runs an international exchange center and provides a student residence, scholarship guidance and a financial-support scholarship system for applicants. It publishes its disclosure information, history and founding spirit on its official site.
