ABOUT JAIMS
Established in 1972 by Fujitsu Limited, the JAIMS
program provides an intensive postgraduate certificate program with
a major focus on U.S. business principles and methods within a global
context. Participants learn about business strategy; marketing;
accounting and finance; negotiation; computer and information technology
applications; regional and global business practices.
CRITO has hosted the JAIMS group for over 10 years.
The group comes to America to study information technology and management. Faculty
associates from CRITO and other universities provide classroom lectures
to groups of 15-20 mid to upper level Japanese managers on topics
such as IT and Business in the Internet Age, Supply Chain Management,
Collaborative Technologies, and Competing in the Digital Economy.
Local companies also participate in this program
by hosting the JAIMS students for a site tour and talk at their
facilities. The firms generously donate their time and hospitality
to introduce the students to their organizations and provide them
with real examples of the business models and concepts they have
been studying at CRITO.
Some of the companies that
have hosted the JAIMS group in the past are:

BECOME A JAIMS HOST
We welcome companies interested in participating
in intercultural exchange through hosting the JAIMS group.
Host companies typically accommodate the JAIMS students at their
facility for a presentation and a site tour (if appropriate) for
approximately 2 hours. The companies prepare a short presentation
of no more than 60 minutes providing an overview of their organization
and business model. During the presentation, group leaders
from JAIMS conduct sequential interpretation in Japanese and facilitate
questions and answers between the students and the speaker.
Many companies find the experience of participating
in the JAIMS program to be an interesting and rewarding way to work
with UCI and CRITO while interacting with and learning about the
perspective of Japanese managers.

become a host company, please contact (949) 824-1323 for more information.
