Mechanical Engineering spans a full spectrum of modem technology,
,covering the design, production, improvement, operation, maintenance, etc. of
machinery and equipment. The undergraduate curriculum of the Department is designed
to give students a solid academic foundation in the area of mechanical engineering
during their second and third years through intensive learning of basic mechanics,
such as thermo mechanics, fluid mechanics, mechanics of materials and mechanics
of machinery, as well as the basics of instrumentation technology, control engineering,
electric engineering, electronic engineering, etc., thereby preparing them for
more advanced programs on applied mechanical engineering provided mainly to students
in the third and fourth years, such as those on heat transfer , combustion, hydraulic
fluid engineering, gas dynamics, elasticity, solid mechanics, computational dynamics
and tribology. The aim of the undergraduate curriculum of the Department is to
produce mechanical engineers with a strong working knowledge of basic and practical
mechanical engineering.
The Department also offers quality postgraduate programs that provide students
with opportunities to develop advanced expertise in mechanical engineering through
schooling on frontier disciplines. In addition ,the master's course in mechanical
engineering includes a special two-year research assignment program, in which
students conduct intensive research on cutting-edge topics in mechanical engineering.
The purpose of these postgraduate programs (schooling and research programs) is
to produce mechanical engineers who are equipped not only with advanced expertise
in mechanical engineering but also with creativity. |

Learn the production processes of the 21st centuryモ is the
catch phrase of the Department of Production Systems Engineering, which provides
a wide range of research and education opportunities in the field of production
engineering. At the moment, the world of production is faced with the growing
diversity, complexity and globalization of production processes. In response to
these ongoing changes, the Department provides educational and research programs
that integrate the three major areas of production engineering,
namely Systems Engineering (design, control and maintenance of production systems),
Mechanical Engineering (design and manufacturing of engineering products) and
Material Engineering (design, development, manufacturing and evaluation of engineering
materials), with the aim of delivering the next generation of leading engineers
who can make comprehensive judgments from a broad point of view.
Major research themes of the Department include: moving image recognition and
measurement based on signal processing; design, control and scheduling of systems
using computer technologies; control of conveyance systems using innovative control
technologies; humanoid robots; production of a variety of functional membranes
and junctions using spraying technologies; nanoscale precision machining; a variety
of production and processing methods using numerical simulation technologies;
material warranty technologies based on the evaluation of fracture characteristics;
material production technologies including material recycling technologies; improvement
of material characteristics and development of functional materials using surface
enhancement technologies; and medical and health care goods material technologies
based on biocompatibility. Vigorous research activities of the Department are
attracting considerable attention from a wide array of disciplines. |

The aim of the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering
is to develop young engineers who can be the next generation of leaders in this
field through the provision of quality courses both in electronic engineering
(electronic, optical, and magnetic material, semiconductor devices, integrated
circuits, etc.) and electrical engineering (electric materials, electric power
generation, electric power control, electric applications, etc.).
The undergraduate curriculum of the Department starts with programs on the basics
of physicality, energy and circuit design, which are designed to provide a sound
academic foundation both for electronic and electrical engineering, in addition
to programs on computer hardware and software. After this, students register for
specialized courses on subjects of their choice.
At the same time, the undergraduate curriculum is designed so that students can
complete the degrees required to be licensed as a Type One Electrical Chief Engineer.
Moreover, students in the fourth year are given opportunities to further develop
their problem- solving skills through conducting research on a theme of their
choice under the individual guidance in the research laboratory to which they
have been attached, in addition to the internship program carried out during the
third semester.
As a result of the recent development and advancement of electrical and electronic
engineering technologies, engineers working at the frontier of the field are increasingly
required to have advanced expertise and outstanding R & D skills. In response
to this, the postgraduate curriculum (master's course) of the Department provides
students with high quality educational and research programs in which they can
learn cutting-edge, advanced electrical and electronic engineering theories and
technologies. |

Information science, which is an area of study that has
gone through a dramatic growth hand in hand with the rapid progress of computers,
forms the foundation of today's information-oriented society. The department of
Information and Computer Science provides students with quality education and
research opportunities with the aim of establishing new fields of engineering
science in computation, information processing, and communication.
Based on this principle, the undergraduate curriculum of the Department starts
with well-balanced programs on basic knowledge of computer software and hardware,
which prepare students for their later studies in specialized courses. In addition,
the "Project Experiment" (information science experiment program), which
is offered to students in the third year during the third semester, provides students
with opportunities to master basic specialist techniques in information engineering
through studying their themes of interest in cooperation with team members. Moreover,
students in the fourth year learn practical techniques in information and computer
engineering in a systematic manner through teamwork in the "Big Experiment"
program, which is held during the first semester, do their BS thesis work in their
research laboratories in the "Special Experiment" program during the
second semester, and complete their
internship training in industry during the third semester.
In principle, the Department provides its undergraduate course and masters course
as one continuous curriculum. The aim of its postgraduate courses is not only
to deliver leading-edge theories and techniques in various fields of information
and computer sciences to students but also to develop creative leaders through
quality research programs. |
