The program consists of short-term intensive lectures and selections from the regular lectures of each department of the basic science research system. | In succession to the "Educational Program for Creativity in Transdisciplinary Sciences" (2009-2018), the name will be changed in 2017. | |
| Deep Space Exploration Education Program Deep Space Education Program |
Department of Advanced Energy Engineering Department of Complex Science and Engineering |
diploma | This course is open to students in the Department of Advanced Energy and the Department of Complexity Science and Engineering, however, students from other divisions, departments, and graduate schools are also welcome. | This course provides an integrated overview of the science and engineering of deep space exploration (the Moon and celestial bodies farther than the Moon), studying its fundamentals and applications including the scientific significance of deep space exploration, mission planning, spacecraft systems, observation instruments and such. s. The program is designed to foster human resources with a broad perspective who will pave the way for future deep space exploration through an educational system based on collaboration of science and engineering. The program consists of cross-cutting core subjects from introduction to practical training, as well as selected lectures from the regular courses of the Department of Advanced Energy and the Department of Complexity Science and Engineering. | Since 2018 | |
| Data Scientist Training / Education Program | Department of Integrated Biosciences, Department of Computational Biology and Medical Sciences | diploma | For students in the doctoral course of the Department of Integrated Biosciences or the Department of Computational Biology and Medical Sciences | The program aims to promote the discovery and development of human resources who can perform advanced data analysis of genome-related biological big data in the field of medical applications, along with promoting collaborative creation with related companies with a focus on human resource development. | Since 2018 | |
| Biomedical Innovation Course | Department of Computational Biology and Medical Sciences | partial independent entrance examinations | Master degree(Science) Doctor of Philosophy (Science) |
small number of people | New research results are constantly generated, and we regard the entire attempt to provide society with new medical solutions by integrating these results with those of other science and technology as "medical innovation. In order to design such activities, it is important to develop a perspective that takes a bird's eye view of bioethics/medical ethics, intellectual property, industry-academia collaboration, technological standards, regulations, business, science and technology policy, medical policy, and social conditions. In the Medical Innovation Course, we will work to develop human resources who can contribute to medical innovation through both education and research. | Since 2006 (Name changed since 2018) |
| Medical Genome Science Program | Department of Computational Biology and Medical Sciences | diploma | This program is open to all students enrolled under the department of Computational Biology and Medical Sciences. A certificate of completion will be issued to those who have earned the required credits. | This program was established as a five-year educational program with funding from the the "FY 2007 Support Program for Improving Graduate School Education" and is operated as an educational program for the departmen. The program is designed to nurture life science and medical science researchers along withtechnicians who aim to revolutionize medicine from the most advanced genome-based life sciences based on real experience in the medical field. Students who complete the program are given a certificate of completion and are expected to contribute to human understanding in, health and welfare as leaders of TR research and fusion research of medicine, engineering and informatics. | Since 2007 | |
| Computational Biological Science Program | Department of Computational Biology and Medical Sciences | diploma | This program is open to all students enrolled under the department of Computational Biology and Medical Sciences. A certificate of completion will be issued to those who have earned the required credits. | In addition to basic informatics research, there is a growing demand for people who are skilled in bioinformatics methodology in various fields of biological and medical research fields. This program aim to foster experts who can pioneer new fields of bioinformatics from a broad perspective, not limiting only to the basics of programming but also the development of various applications and algorithms. They are expected to be engaged in the promotion of medical research that contributes to life phenomena in and to health and welfare in general as leaders in genome analysis, medical genomics, TR research, and fusion research between molecular biology medicine, engineering, and informatics. | Since 2015 | |
| Integrated Environmental Design Program | Applicable to all departments in the Division of Environmental Studies | diploma | Approximately 20 students per studio | In addition to the skills to construct man-made and natural environments, 21st century environmental designers are required to acquire advanced skills and philosophies to nurture, maintain, and manage them. It is not possible to obtain appropriate solutions by confining oneself to a narrowly specialized field. Thus, in this program, students can acquire advanced and wide-ranging skills and knowledge by systematically taking eight design studios and the lecture course "Integrated Environmental Design", which are developed beyond their specializations, based on the environmental studies studied in each department. | Since 2007 | |
| Minor Program in Sustainability Science | Applicable to all departments in the Graduate School of Frontier Sciences | diploma | This program is open to all students enrolled in the Graduate School of Frontier Sciences. A certificate of completion will be issued to those who have earned the prescribed credits. | The essence of sustainability education established by the Graduate Program in Sustainability Science (GPSS) is made more commonlyavailable as a common subject in the Graduate School of Frontier Sciences to develop human resources who can contribute internationally to the construction of a sustainable society without being confined to their specialty. | Since 2020~ | |
| Environment Engineer Training Program | Department of Environmental System | diploma | small number of people | The program aims to foster engineering sense to solve environmental problems with technology along with,developing human resources who can see the ideal environment of the 21st century as a system and propose problem-solving methods that take the perspectives of both integrated technology and elemental technology into account. | Since 2006 | |
| Environment Manager Training Program | Department of Environmental System | diploma | small number of people | To foster a sense of environmental implementation policy and environmental risk management in administrative and managerial positions, and to develop human resources who can adapt to environmental issues from a broad perspective. | Since 2006 |
