Department Overview

Industrial Technology Design Field

We have established the Industrial Technology Design field, which integrates five research fields: mechanical systems, electrical and information technology, material and life chemistry, civil engineering design, and architectural design. In order to produce human resources with advanced research and development capabilities in each research field, or the ability to take on specialized education in university (including graduate school) education courses, we strive to practice healthy human education in both body and mind, with a strong inquisitive mind for the research subject and a strong will to carry out research. In addition, we offer day and night classes, provide education and research guidance that takes working adults into consideration, and cultivate human resources who can give back to the international and local communities while tackling international and universal issues toward achieving the SDGs.
