All cours-es contain lectures from a wide range of chemistry for their respective educational purposes. In their final year, stu-dents execute their own research study under the guidance of professors. In the end, students efficiently gain the skills and knowledge required to complete their educational course and graduate.Advanced mathematics provides sophisticated tools and a rigorous framework to analyze and describe various re-al-life phenomena, and seeks the beauty in numbers. Our department offers two majors: in pure mathematics and in applied mathematics. In the first year, students learn vari-ous foundational courses. From the second year, they learn advanced courses, including algebra, geometry, topology, real analysis, complex analysis, statistics, and mathemati-cal modeling. By studying advanced mathematics, students develop a variety of skills, such as logical reasoning, cre-ative thinking, problem solving, knowledge of data analysis, statistics, and outstanding presentation skills.The department offers education and research related to the areas of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and electronic engineering. Students study a wide range of basic theories related to the areas of this department during their first two years. They then select one of two undergrad-uate courses: Mechanical Engineering Course, and Electrical and Electronic Engineering Course. The depart-ment aims to nurture graduates who have prepared for professional engineering in either mechanical engineering or electrical and electronic engineering with fundamental knowledge in both of the fields.●Basic Chemistry●Environmental Chemistry●Functional Materials Chemistry ●Mechanical Engineering●Electrical and Electronic EngineeringThe department offers research and education based on geology and some aspects of engineering geology. The main aims are: (1) to encourage systematic understanding of earth materials and resources; (2) to understand the mu-tual relationships among humanity, society, and the earth from geological viewpoints; and (3) to establish effective methodology to reduce natural disasters based on a wide knowledge of geological processes and environmental changes. Our education programs are aimed to train specialists in earth sciences and related fields. Field work and practical skills are essential in our undergraduate courses.Information and computer science and engineering has been indispensable to a wide range of human activities in society. The next stage of the society is said to be a data driven society, where data science is its foundation.The department aims to provide our students with the knowledge and skills of data science and computer sci-ence. The education program consists of two majors: information systems design, and data science. Information systems design includes basics in computer science and engineering along with practical applications. Data science includes statistics and machine learning.We conduct education and research in the fields of (1) ar-chitectural planning; (3) architectural environment. Students acquire comprehen-sive knowledge in these fields during their first two years. At the end of their second year, students can choose to follow one of the following two courses: (A) Building Structure/En-vironmental Engineering, or (B) Architectural Planning and Design. In the first semester of their third year, students decide the field in which they want to major. The graduation research topic will be decided at the beginning of their fourth year.●Geoscience●Geoenvironmental Science●Geo-disaster Science●Data Science●Information Systems Design●Building Structure/Environmental Engineering●Architectural Planning and Design(2) building structure; and Department of ChemistryDepartment of Mathematics●Pure Mathematics　●Applied MathematicsDepartment of Mechanical, Electrical and Electronic EngineeringDepartment of Earth ScienceDepartment of Information Systems Design and Data ScienceDepartment of Architectural Design
