“KOSEN Mind and Body Off-Campus Counseling Room”
In order to "promote mental health awareness and treatment" and "maintain and improve mental and physical health" among students and faculty, the National Institute of Technology (KOSEN) has established a mental health service called "KOSEN Kokoro" outsourced to a private consulting specialist organization. We provide an off-campus counseling room for personal and physical health (hereinafter referred to as the "off-campus counseling room").

In addition, faculty and staff at each technical college can use this service free of charge, and it not only supports students, but also contributes to the mental and physical health management of faculty and staff.
