- Mr. Yusuke Irisawa
- 2010 Admission
- Marketing & International Business major
My current research theme is product design management for creation of innovative
products and services. This is not limited only to visual design, but also covers a wide
range of content: designing processes for new product creation; designing value that
engages the senses (Kansei); and designing brands to differentiate from competitors.
Along with European luxury brands such as Louis Vuitton and Chanel, I am investigating
the traditions and innovations of long-established companies in Kyoto, such as Tawaraya
and Suetomi.
As a working graduate student, I am currently involved with new business planning in the
IT field. Often people ask, “Isn’t it completely unrelated to what you are
studying?” Business planning, however, is a rather unrefined field, and it’s
very important to have the background to generate new ideas. In that sense, my studies
are having a very positive impact on my work. In particular, the perspective of Kansei value is a very important component of new IT businesses: so in fact, I am applying my academic knowledge in my daily business practice.

- Ms. Yumiko Kizu
- MBA Graduate in 2012
- Beauty Editor, Deputy Editor-in-Chief “Harper’s BAZAAR”
While in school I studied luxury brands under Professor Shin’ya Nagasawa in the MOT
program. You may be wondering why I chose MOT to learn about brand theory. It’s
because I wanted to research luxury as a strategy from the standpoint of cosmetic
products, and because luxury brands are one of Professor Nagasawa’s research
themes.
As a beauty editor for women’s magazine, I have seen the transition of many
cosmetic brands. Through this program, I feel that I can delve deeper into the strengths
and weakness of brands and companies and the logic behind their actions from a new
perspective. I’ve also appreciated the opportunity to learn about other firms that
I wouldn’t have had access to in my daily work. Consequently, I now can recognize
the characteristics and position of the cosmetic industry in relation to others.
There are many editors and journalists who specialize in the beauty industry, but I hope
to apply the knowledge gained through this program and speak from a new and differing
perspective. I would like to contribute to the development of the cosmetic industry and
empower Japanese women to become even more beautiful.
