Overview

Chemical engineers have been creating a variety of products and contributing to our daily life. For further development of chemical technology, they need more knowledge in biotechnology which is important for understanding the biological phenomena from the viewpoint of chemistry. In the present age our mission is to foster the engineers who contribute to the future chemical industry through our curriculum containing applied chemistry and biotechnology.

Educational Aims

We aim to foster the engineers who have highly awareness of global environmental problems and engineering ethics, expertise in applied chemistry and biotechnology, and will be able to serve as a leader on production sites.

Educational Objectives

  1. Environmental and engineering ethics : students will acquire the basic knowledge about the global environment.

  2. Expertise : students will acquire the fundamental knowledge in applied chemistry and biotechnology.

  3. Self-expression : students will acquire the basic ability to give presentations and communicate.

  4. Problem-solving ability and self-improvement : students will be able to continuously improve their acquired basic knowledge and skills, and be able to handle tasks related to applied chemistry and biotechnology.

  5. Sociability : students will learn to be independent, responsible, and community- minded through career education and extra-curricular activity.

Features of the Curriculum

Our curriculum has two courses of Applied Chemistry and Biotechnology, which is a highlight of our department. After 3-year basic study (mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology etc.), the students can select a course and learn the expertise and experimental techniques of each course for the last two years. Our curriculum emphasizes in experiments and practical training in all grades, especially graduation research in the fifth grade. Through such experiences, they can obtain practical skills which are useful in the society. In recognition by JABEE (Japan Accreditation Board for Engineering Education) since 2008, we continue to maintain the high-quality engineering education that meets the international standard.
