Outline

  Graduate School of Natural Science and Technology, which was recently established in 2018, integrates the Interdisciplinary Graduate School of Science and Engineering and the Graduate School of Life and Environmental Sciences. It comprises three majors in which the graduates receive Master’s degree: Science and Engineering, Science of Environmental Systems, Agricultural and Life Sciences. In addition, each major is connected with a department in the undergraduate school, which enables a continuous education from the undergraduate level. The graduate school undertakes education and research in a wide range of academic fields including science, engineering and agriculture. The students will develop scientific knowledge, presentation skills, a global insight, and the ability to formulate new ideas.
  The graduates will become highly creative innovators, engineers, and researchers who will contribute to the development of science, technology and the creation of a sustainable society and whose comprehensive and interdisciplinary viewpoints will be of benefit to those in the local community.
  In the Science and Engineering Major, students acquire the basic knowledge mathematics, physics, and informatics. Based on this knowledge, they will contribute to the development of mathematical science, physics, information science, mechanical engineering, electric and electronic engineering, and materials engineering as advanced engineers and researchers with an international viewpoint.
  In the Science of Environmental Systems Major, students acquire the basic knowledge in earth science, environmental and sustainability sciences, chemistry, and architecture. Based on this knowledge, they will contribute to the creation of rich and environmentally friendly society as advanced engineers and researchers with practical skills, creativity, and an international viewpoint.
  In the Agricultural and Life Sciences Major, students acquire the basic knowledge of agriculture and life sciences. Based on this knowledge, they will contribute to the development of life science and utilization of agricultural and forest products as advanced engineers and researchers with self-reliant problem solving abilities, rich humanity, and an international viewpoint.
