Graduate School/Faculty of Engineering
Contributing to Sustainable Development
Technology looking to the future, youth interests and sustainable efforts lead to the new age
Science and technology today, as typified by IT and biotechnology, have been developed in the studies of engineering, and contributing to dramatic improvement of society and industries. On the other hand, in the 21st century, humans are faced with various problems including global environmental problems we have never experienced before, and thus we have the challenge of developing of nature-conscious Soft Technology. The School of Engineering established one of the national best education systems with 6 departments to cultivate human resources who can efficiently deal with diversified and sophisticated needs of the society. The origin of engineering which creates the affluent society comes from intellectual curiosity and infinite inquisitive spirits of youths. We are looking for new students who have dreams and hopes for future science and technology. Shall we take part in making challenging new technology for the 21st century together?
Departments have been renewed
Advancement of science and technology and the requirements for technology have been rapidly changing, such as basement and application research associated with disseminating advanced technology to the world, the creation of urban space bringing affluent and healthy living to society, response to global environmental issues. Engineering should solve more interdisciplinary and sophisticated issues. Faculty of Engineering has been restructured with 6 departments to strengthen education and research curriculums since 2009, and renewed as the new system mobilizing the broad knowledge and creativity from field of academic study.
Graduate School, integrating and deepening theory and practice
In response to the further improvement of science and technology, Graduate School of Engineering consists of 4 majors, covering broad areas in order to develop experts and researchers with outstanding specialist capabilities who will be the bearers of the next generation; 1) Mechanical and Physical Engineering, specializing in mechanical engineering which is the key foundation of manufacturing, and its basic field; 2) Physical Electronics and Informatics, creating the physical science foundations which sustain the advanced information society, and advanced technologies; 3) Applied and Bioapplied Chemistry, focusing on the environment-conscious technology, producing next-generation materials; 4) Urban Engineering, creating and maintaining social infrastructure, architecture and life environments in urban cities. To provide well-developed education curriculums and achieve outstanding research results, each major consists of pre-doctoral course (2years) and subsequent doctoral course (3 years).
