Department of Computer and Information Sciences (established before department reorganization in April 2019)
Department of Department of Computer and Information Sciences Diploma Policy
- Students must have acquired the basic academic ability and knowledge of natural sciences, particularly mathematics, which are the foundation for working as an engineer.
- 1) Having acquired the basic theories of computer science and computer engineering, which form the basis for being an information engineering specialist. 2) Having acquired the specialized knowledge necessary to independently conceive, design, and develop new information technologies and systems.
- 1. Having acquired the practical ability to design and operate information systems based on theory, and to analyze and improve the results. 2. Having acquired the ability to conduct creative research that contributes to the development of information engineering.
- Students will have acquired the communication skills and culture necessary to become engineers who can collaborate with a variety of people both in Japan and overseas.
Department of Department of Computer and Information Sciences Curriculum Policy
In the first and second years, the most important basic subjects that are central to information engineering are placed and taught thoroughly through traditional "hands-on education". All of these most important basic subjects are taught through related exercises until students understand them. In the third year, students can choose which field to focus on from the three subject groups: "Computer Systems", "Mathematical Intelligence", and "Media". It is also possible to take courses across multiple fields. In the fourth year, students will further enhance their expertise by choosing one of the many laboratories with different specialties and working on their graduation research there. By studying in this curriculum, students will start from understanding the basics such as the operating principles of computers and programs, and by the time they graduate, they will be able to understand how cutting-edge technology is realized. Therefore, unlike simply learning techniques to use computer applications and software, students will be able to absorb new theories and technologies even after entering society and continue to be active at the forefront as researchers and engineers.
We also offer the SAIL education program to foster students' interest in natural sciences while nurturing their ability to independently advance research and development (1. Study ability, 2. Analysis, 3. Innovative design, 4. Logical presentation).
