Osaka Prefecture University (OPU), also abbreviated to Fudai , is one of the largest public universities in Japan. The main campus is among big Kofun tombs in Sakai, Osaka.
History
OPU was established in 2005 in its current form by integrating three prefectural universities: University of Osaka Prefecture , Osaka Women's University and Osaka Prefecture College of Nursing .
University of Osaka Prefecture
UOP was originally established in 1949 as Naniwa University ( Naniwa is the classical name for Osaka) by mingling several national and public technical colleges. Among them was Osaka National College of Engineering . Since then the faculties in the field of engineering have been very competitive. In 1955 the university was renamed University of Osaka Prefecture (Japanese name for the university has not been changed since 1955).
The history of the precedent colleges of Naniwa University (NU) is as follows:
In 1888, the oldest root was founded as Osaka Prefectural School of Agriculture in Sakai. It consisted of two courses: Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine. In 1942, during World War II, the course for Veterinary Medicine was reorganized into Osaka Higher School of Veterinary Medicine , which was renamed Osaka College of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Husbandry in 1945. This prefectural college, together with Osaka Agricultural College (, established in 1944 in Ikeda), constituted NU Faculty of Agriculture (now OPU Graduate School of Life and Environmental Sciences/School of Life and Environmental Sciences).
The main origin was founded as Osaka National Higher School of Engineering in 1939, which was renamed Osaka National College of Engineering in 1944. Its site is now the main (Nakamozu) campus of OPU. The college was merged with four prefectural technical colleges to constitute NU Faculty of Engineering (now OPU Graduate School of Engineering/School of Engineering). In 1950, the two of the former prefectural colleges constituted Junior Technical College Division (one campus in Neyagawa and the other in Yodogawa-ku, Osaka. Neyagawa campus was reorganized into Osaka Prefectural College of Technology in 1962, while Yodogawa campus was later abolished).
Still other origin was established as Osaka Youth Normal School (a national college) in 1944. This teachers college constituted NU Faculty of Education, which was later abolished and reorganized into Division of Liberal Arts (now OPU Faculty of Liberal Arts and Sciences).
Osaka Women's University
OWU was established in 1949 by developing Osaka Prefecture Women's College, which was established in 1924 under old educational systems (the second oldest public women's college in Japan). Its campus was originally located in Sumiyoshi-ku, Osaka. In 1976, the university was moved to Sakai. The campus (abolished in March 2007) was next to Daisen-kofun (supposed to be the tomb of Emperor Nintoku).
OWU at first had one faculty: Faculty of Liberal Arts and Education, which included:
- Course for Japanese Literature
- Course for English Literature
- Course for Social Welfare
- Course for Life Science
In 1999 Faculty of Liberal Arts and Education was reorganized into two faculties:
- Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences
- Faculty of Science
Osaka Prefecture College of Nursing
OPCN was founded as Osaka Prefecture Junior College of Nursing in 1978. Its campus was located in Sumiyoshi-ku, Osaka. In 1994, the junior college developed into Osaka Prefecture College of Nursing (four-year course, located in Habikino, Osaka).

Campus life
OPU has one of the largest campus areas in Japan, and it has a very nice relaxing atmosphere especially in the parks where children often come to play during holidays. There are four cafeterias which are popular among the students and also the professors.
OPU is specially superior in the engineering science field. All information about classes and student's results are administered using an IT System and there are lots of computers that all students can use freely.
OPU has four school festivals namely "Yuko festival", "Tanabata festival", "Anju festival" and "Shirasagi festival." The Yuko festival is held in May, where many freshmen set up refreshment booths and make friends in this festival, since "Yuko" means "friendship" in English. The Shirasagi festival is held in November and is a big festival that has been a tradition for more than 60 years. Every year, in this festival there are many booths and four stages for some events, where famous singers and artists are invited to perform. Among all the refreshment booths, the one that sells "Churros" is the most popular. Each festival, many people come and check out the booths and enjoy the events and OPU.
OPU has two large famous gates: Nakamozu gate and Shirasagi gate. Those gates are used by most people who go to OPU. OPU has facilities such as library, U Function hall and grassy areas where people can have picnics, so in weekdays most students enter the university through those gates in order to take lessons, and in the weekends, people who live near OPU enter through those gates in order to play or just walk around in the parks inside of the university.

To be with the sea for our future and our aqua planet!
The Earth System is composed of atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere and biosphere. The sea, occupying most of the hydrosphere affects, and is increasingly affected by, the other three as humankind, included in the biosphere, is engaged in the social and economic activities in the sea. Within our significant marine system focus we are concerned with all kinds of interactions affecting the subtle balance of Nature and of the human activities in the sea. This does not necessarily mean the manmade structures only. Marine System Engineering thus falls within the discipline studying the equilibrium of the natural and human activities in the sea from an engineering perspective. Academic Staff

Department of Materials Science
Materials science, the key for the success of new technology, ... and to the future.
Often, the progress in science and technology in the modern society is limited not by design, but a lack of materials that realize the idea of a designer. The mission of our department is then to ultimately provide such materials, as well as to train materials scientists. This is indeed a formidable task, and a systematic approach by experienced researchers is much needed.
Thus, in our department, about twenty qualified materials scientists, together with talented graduate students, are working on a number of problems ranging from the synthesis of high-temperature intermetallic compounds to the analysis of nanostructured magnetic thin films. Our specific activities include design and fabrication of various functional materials, such as thermo-electric materials, multilayered thinfilms, and nanostructured composites; investigations of mechanical and thermal-resistant properties of recent ceramic materials used in the aerospace industry; and the first principle simulation of the structure of light-weight superalloys, just to name a few.Academic Staff
