Features

In the "Project Development Arena," which is the core of the program, students work on projects with clear objectives and requirements in order to conduct research and development for specific users (clients) based on social needs. The two-year Master's Program is divided into four arenas of activity, allowing for incremental refinement and improvement of results through iterations.

The program is unique in that it is possible for students to work on both research-oriented and development-oriented project themes in collaboration with colleagues across laboratories and research fields.

In addition to improving technical skills for problem solving, this department focuses on teaching students to improve their relationship management skills through teamwork. Another feature of the education is the use of English for lectures, student presentations.
