Message from the Dean

While the Graduate School of Industrial Technology consists of one major, there are three degree programs. These three programs are referred to as courses: the Business Systems Design Engineering Course, which aims for students to acquire the skills to create future business models; the Information Systems Architecture Course, which aims for students to acquire advanced IT skills required by society; and the Innovation for Design and Engineering Course, which aims for students to acquire the design and engineering skills indispensable for production. Each course is designed to develop the human resources required in the economic activities of modern society, with curriculums aiming for students to acquire basic knowledge and expertise through various lectures and seminars, and to enhance their ability to carry out work through Project Based Learning (PBL).

For the reasons above, the faculty is made up of individuals in a wide range of area, from researchers in relevant areas to experts with rich practical experience. At this school, there are no laboratory affiliations, and students can communicate with all teachers without barriers. So long as they are motivated, students will be able to learn from multiple teachers and may receive various opportunities. This means that if they are proactive, they have many possibilities.

Also, all of our students have diverse backgrounds, and are expected to provide rich stimulation for each other. We believe learning with classmates who are diverse in age, experience, and area of knowledge makes it possible to study in an environment students have never experienced before.

Under such a learning environment, students are expected to become socially and internationally active individuals equipped with advanced professional knowledge and skills. I look forward to working hard together.
