<Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Course>

Today, it is impossible to construct advanced engineering systems without using technologies
from computer sciences. In response to the societal demand for electrical, electronic, information,
and communications-related technologies as an industrial foundation, the Electrical Engineering
and Computer Science Course accepts prospective students with the following characteristics The
Course provides education and research guidance in order to nurture outstanding engineers and
researchers in acquiring global perspectives, a wide range of values, and sophisticated general
education, as well as developing the abilities to contribute to the regeneration of Japan as a
technology-oriented nation.

<Materials Science and Engineering Course>

Materials have always played an important role in human society. Going forward, the
importance of materials in social-infrastructure technology continues to increase. Along with the
recent development of the advanced science field, the field of materials science and engineering
is also diversifying in the ways in which professionals tackle the key issue of enhancing the high
functionality of materials without creating any environmental load. For the development of modern
scientific technology, one of the most important foundations is to conduct scientific work on
materials or to pursue superior materials based on the relevant social background. The Materials
Science and Engineering Course seeks the following characteristics from prospective students.

fellow colleagues.
<Architecture and Civil Engineering Course>
The Architecture and Civil Engineering Course provides education and research guidance to
nurture engineers who will engage in the building of the human life environment, which involves
working on the land, regions, cities and architecture. This course seeks prospective students who
have completed specialized education in different departments at an undergraduate level as their
foundation, have developed a broad perspective on society to which technologies will be applied,
and demonstrate a motivation for acquiring in-depth knowledge, skills, and findings from their
respective specialized fields.
In its future training of graduate students, the Architecture and Civil Engineering Course will
focus mainly on the following four areas, which can be further categorized into a more detailed
research guidance system.
- Engineers who are engaged in architecture- and urban-related design and planning.
- Engineers who are engaged in research related to architectural history or the repair and
conservation of old architecture.
- Engineers who are engaged in design, planning, and research related to architecture, urban
structures, the environment, and production.

The Course has constructed its entrance examination, curriculum, and policy and system of this
course up to the point of completing a Master’s thesis in light of these areas. Faculty members in
the Course teach in four different undergraduate Departments and one Course. In this Course,
however, they form cross-departmental groups to provide research guidance, and the subjects
offered to students after their enrolment are composed also based on these cross-departmental
groups.
Cosmopolitanism and expertise:
Both broad perspectives and language proficiency are vital to the realization of cosmopolitanism,
the concept on which this university is focusing, and the Course structure reflects that focus.
