About the Faculty
Create Unknown "Materials" Through the Power of Chemistry
Become Engineers Who Open the Future of Life and Matter
CREATE NEW MATERIALS AND LIFE
The Faculty of Chemistry, Materials and Bioengineering cultivates human resources who support the development of 21st century "manufacturing" and "advanced technology" with keywords of chemistry, life, and materials. We train researchers and engineers who create substances that are active in a wide range of fields such as nanotechnology, biotechnology, energy, environment, and medicine. Contributing to social development through science and technology that aims for coexistence of "materials" and "life."
Departments
DEPARTMENTS
Two departments learning the future of "manufacturing" in chemistry/materials and life/biotechnology.
Department of Chemistry and Materials Engineering
Learn functional design, creation, and manufacturing process technology development of new substances and new materials. In the first year, students commonly study physical chemistry and basic chemistry, and from the second year, they are divided into the following three courses.
- Applied Chemistry Course: Learn chemical reactions and synthesis techniques
- Bio-Molecular Chemistry Course: Learn functions and applications of biomolecules
- Materials Science Course: Learn physical properties and development of materials
Department of Life Science and Biotechnology
Conduct research that combines life science and engineering, such as developing safe cosmetics and artificial organs with less burden. From the second year, students are divided into the following two courses.
- Biotechnology Course: Learn technology using microorganisms and enzymes
- Life Science Course: Learn elucidation of life phenomena and medical applications
