Tsukuba University Well known in Japan as the first open campus, the Medical School Group at Tsukuba University has faced problems with theft and needed to keep records of who was entering buildings and when.
As a solution, they chose to install Paxton Access’ Net2 and add to the installation every year. We asked Prof. Naoto Terui, the person in charge of installations at the school, and Ms. Adachi, who manages the use of the system, to tell us about their experience with Net2. The Tsukuba University Medical School Group is located on one corner of the Tsukuba campus, in the center of the 2,700 hectare Tsukuba City Research Park. The Medical School Group is composed of three separate fields: Medicine, Nursing and Pharmaceuticals. About 1,900 people (including the students, doctors and other staff,) are using the eight buildings belonging to the Medical School Group. At the open campus, there are no walls or gates. Beyond that, buildings were always being added that had no real plans for an overall security system. Anybody could come into the campus at any time. From a security perspective, there were a lot of things that were being over-looked.  Click here to download this case study as a PDF
