The Advanced Engineering Systems Design Program

Degrees Offered

Degree Title Doctor of Engineering

Educational Mission

Materials, environment, electrical and electronics, information, machinery, architecture, and community development domains should play the following role in the local community and society, by drawing on the University’s expertise in Kansei engineering and robotics: integrate various disciplines to foster human resources who develop advanced innovations based on their extensive knowledge and produce world-class engineers who understand practical aspects, such as the social application of basic research in the living environment, and technology’s co-existence with humans.

Three Program Policies

1Admissions Policy

  • Individuals who possess basic knowledge, cultural refinement, and master’s level academic skills, so that they can pursue advanced learning in the domains of materials, environment, electrical and electronics, information, machinery, architecture, and community development, and engage in research to complete a doctoral dissertation
  • Individuals seeking to gain creative skills by acquiring extensive knowledge in various disciplines other than their own
  • Individuals who are eager to understand the role of their expertise in the local community and society, contribute to the local community, and play leadership roles

2Curriculum Policy

  • Specialist elective subjects shall be offered with the aim of providing advanced specialist knowledge and technical skills in the fields of materials, environment, electronics, information, mechanics, architecture, and urban planning.
  • Advanced Seminars on Minors and On-site Studies, including internships and fieldwork, shall be offered as compulsory elective subjects aimed at providing candidates with a wide range of knowledge, an understanding of the need for the integration of diverse fields of study, multi-faceted perspectives, and an awareness of the role of their own field of specialization in the community and society.
  • Advanced Exercises and Advanced Research shall be offered as required subjects contributing to the “Plan, Do, Check, Action” cycle necessary for research progression, including researcher ethics.

3Degree Conferment Policy

  • Successful candidates shall possess global perspectives to contribute to science, technology, and innovation for the Sustainable Development Goals (STI for SDGs) as well as advanced knowledge and technical skills in mechanics, information, electronics, chemistry, architecture, and construction necessary to resolve 21st century problems relevant to engineering, and to contribute to the creation of sustainable and prosperous societies.
  • Successful candidates shall possess the fundamental knowledge and technical skills that form the basis of cutting-edge studies in engineering, and shall be able to apply the same within industrial and governmental contexts.
  • Successful candidates shall possess high-level communication skills allowing them to practice in a diverse range of contexts related to their field of specialization.
