Conduct research and research on the whaling industry, whale culture, fisheries history, etc. from `` Whale Town Shimonoseki '' through primary materials and interviews with related parties, etc., and how to connect `` whales '' to regional development in Shimonoseki Is the research theme. Currently, industry and industry is working on a demonstration project that effectively utilizes unused areas (residues) of whales and lead to new commercialization. In addition, we are engaged in project activities to spread whale food to the younger generation and to spread the history and culture of whaling. In the future, we plan to conduct research on the history of the fisheries industry in Shimonoseki after the war, utilizing the historical materials held by the university.

Regardless of marine products such as whales, we aim to compile regional promotion measures utilizing local resources into groups such as policy proposals, business proposals, product development, etc., and aim to finally compile them as proposals over a year. We value fieldwork surveys at the site.
