In order to fully support NAIST's growing network of researchers, alumni and collaborative partners around the globe, NAIST has established international collaborative laboratories on-campus and overseas, and maintains overseas offices.
Currently there are three collaborative laboratories operating to facilitate research pursuits at a level only made possible by the cooperation of talented researchers at an international scale.
Overseas offices are managed to promote education and research collaboration not only with NAIST partner institutions but also with NAIST alumni who are active throughout Asia. Additionally, the offices have become bases for recruiting efforts to ensure the successful recruitment of talented students from various countries.
