●Comments from participants (excerpt)●“Specific examples made it easier to understand export control in relation to the law explained at the beginning. The presentation was very informative.”●“AIST’s examples were informative. The questions and answers were more specific and instructive.”●“I want to review the administrative practice at our university.”●“I hadn’t had much chance to learn about export control, and found the detailed explanations highly informative.”Export control is a very important scheme to maintain the peace and safety of the international community. More specifically, to prevent proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and excessive stockpiling of conventional weapons, export control is put on arms exports, as well as on export and provision of goods and technologies that could be used for the development and production of weapons. Because of this, strict export control is required for companies and organizations that may have a relationship with overseas counterparts.Since its establishment in 2001, AIST has developed a strict security export control program ahead of other research institutions and universities. We have provided export control training to AIST researchers, performed internal audits, and have reviewed goods and technologies as well as transactions to determine their subjectivity to export control. Universities too are required to have such an export control system in place, but programs which are suitably sufficient have yet to be created. Appropriate export control at universities is a concern to AIST with a growing number of collaborative research projects and personal exchanges being conducted with universities. We held presentation meetings at AIST regional research bases and visited local universities to give an explanation of our export control activities, and to learn about and provide advice on their own activities in this area. In FY2011, we were requested by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry to report on the experiences of AIST as an organization which has implemented export control, at a presentation for universities, in addition to the usual explanation concerning the export control law. We explained examples of our export control activities at presentation meetings hosted by the Ministry at seven locations across the country, including AIST regional research bases. More than 250 people from a total of 130 universities and research institutions participated in the meetings. We received positive response from the participants. It is expected that the export control activities of universities will be improved.Support of the Development of an Export Control System at UniversitiesPresentation meeting at AIST Kansai36|Fair Operating PracticesConflict of Interest and Appropriate ProcurementFair Operating Practices
