ABOUT
Department of Electrical Engineering
I've never seen that before.
I can't even imagine.
Electrical engineering is what creates that.
My goal is to become a researcher or engineer who will change the world in 20 years.
In order to realize the "smart city," a next-generation city that is safe, secure, and resilient to disasters, which modern society demands,
In Department of Electrical Engineering, we are working on "energy creation" using clean hydrogen fuel cells, which will be used in next-generation fuel cell vehicles.
Energy saving through home appliances that utilize highly efficient power conversion, and energy storage through wireless power supply systems that allow charging without connecting cables.
We are engaged in groundbreaking applied research, such as "communication" using next-generation 5G communication technology and next-generation visible light communication technology that transmits information through everyday lighting.

Study Widely
Communication Systems Engineering
Professor Yoshiteru Abe
Thanks to advances in electrical and electronic technology and information and communication technology, a high-speed, high-capacity communication infrastructure has been established, and with the spread of high-performance smartphones, we now live in a society where everyone can enjoy a comfortable communication environment. In Communication Systems Engineering, students learn a wide range of fundamental information and communication technologies that realize the current comfortable communication environment. This subject also teaches basic knowledge about the Internet and wired/wireless communication systems, allowing students to learn the basics of current information and communication networks. It is suitable for students who wish to work in the information and communication industry in the future.
From semiconductor manufacturing technology to measurement technology
Learn the basics consistently
Electronic Device Engineering Experiment
Tetsuro Sueyoshi, Associate Professor
In modern society, semiconductors and other electronic devices are incorporated into virtually every system, serving as its driving force. This course provides hands-on learning about the fundamentals of electronic circuits, including their design and basic principles, as well as the fundamentals of semiconductors, one of the electronic devices that make up these circuits. In particular, the semiconductor experiments include "making" experiments using vacuum and thin-film technology, and "measuring" experiments on the Hall effect, allowing students to learn the fundamentals of semiconductor manufacturing and measurement techniques in a comprehensive manner. This course is highly recommended for students aiming for careers in the semiconductor manufacturing industry.

Terukazu Nishizaki Seminar
In research and development of high-performance superconducting materials
Towards a prosperous future society
Superconducting materials have special properties not found in other metals or semiconductors, including the property of zero electrical resistance. Superconductivity is a technology necessary for realizing a smart society and improving the performance of medical devices, as seen in its application in MRI imaging diagnostic devices and superconducting linear bullet trains. In our laboratory, we are researching and developing new high-performance superconducting materials that are essential to realizing a prosperous future society by controlling superconducting materials at the nano level.
