Education

The course structure aims at the wide and deep exploration of education and research relating to computer science and systems engineering. The undergraduate program structure is carefully designed for students to study multi-disciplinary major courses as well as liberal arts. Freshman students start fundamental courses of computer science and systems engineering, such as mathematics, physics, logic circuits, and computer engineering. Sophomore students study both fundamental and advanced courses, including programming languages, spectrum analysis, and system analysis. junior students mainly take advanced classes such as database systems, sensing technology, and robotics. All senior students are engaged in research projects. Four-year Bachelor's degrees are awarded to undergraduate students. With respect to this department, a Graduate School of System Informatics was established in 2010 with three departments and in 2023, the three departments were combined into one department in order to build an integrated education and research environment. Master's and doctoral degrees are awarded to students who have successfully completed the required subjects of an authorized graduate program.We have accepted many foreign students and young researchers from more than 20 countries around the world.

Master Program — Our Master Program is geared toward creating highly creative, advanced professionals possessing broad knowledge of each departmental field as well as an interdisciplinary perspective.

The program provides a highly professional education in the student's main department through basic departmental courses and departmental application courses, and enhances the student’s multidisciplinary education by establishing common courses within the Graduate School of System Informatics (fundamental courses that are common to all three departments) and introducing inter-graduate-school courses (courses that cross over our five graduate schools of natural science: Graduate School of Science, Graduate School of Engineering, Graduate School of Agriculture, Graduate School of Marine Science, and Graduate School of System Informatics).

By incorporating within this education system and research guidance through a master’s thesis, our Master Program makes every effort to cultivate high creativity and problem solving skills.

Doctor Program — Our Doctoral Program promotes education and research for fostering researchers, higher education research facility faculty members, and professionals possessing advanced independent research skills, high creativity, and an international mindset for identifying, exploring and resolving problems.

The program establishes rigorous courses related to the student's doctoral thesis, requiring presentations over time in relation to investigational research, problem excavation, research planning, research implementation, research result organization, and methods for solving unresolved issues.

The program also introduces a system of professional courses taught by multiple faculty members as well as cross - graduate - school courses, thereby fostering human resources equipped with advanced expertise and a wide perspective.
