History
The University of Hyogo (UH) was established in April 2004 by integrating three universities which were run by Hyogo Prefecture government: Kobe University of Commerce (神戸商科大学, Kōbe shōka daigaku?), Himeji Institute of Technology (姫路工業大学, Himeji kōgyō daigaku?) and the College of Nursing Art and Science, Hyogo (兵庫県立看護大学, Hyōgo kenritsu kango daigaku?).
