- Kobe University
.
In 1949, under Japan's new educational systems, the university was merged with Hyogo Normal School, Hyogo Junior Normal School, Kobe Technical College and Himeji High School, all of which were in
Hyōgo Prefecture , leading to the creation of "Kobe University".From this period, the university has been expanded and has created new faculties to complement its main academic foundations, which is economics and commerce.
