Education Goals

The educational objectives are that students acquire knowledge pertaining to semiconductor engineering, which is the core technology that physically supports our information-based and data-driven society, and achieve fundamental literacy (fundamental and applied knowledge of mathematics and data science) that is essential for the operation of this society. We will develop highly specialized human resources who can use their knowledge on semiconductor engineering, obtained in Bachelor’s and Master’s programs, to achieve independence in their respective fields and play leading roles in local and international communities. A particular objective is to develop human resources who have advanced expertise and deep insight in semiconductor engineering and related fields and who can creatively and practically contribute to academic development and human welfare.

Education Objectives

The following goals are established to achieve the educational objectives of this program.

1. Acquire foundational and applied knowledge in mathematics and data science to develop new technologies related to advanced semiconductor systems through the close integration of large-scale integrated circuit and system design and semiconductor device, material, and manufacturing-process technologies. Develop an inquisitive mind, logical thinking, problem-finding and -solving abilities, and expressiveness.
2. Acquire knowledge of the latest science and technology in specialized and related fields through lectures and laboratory seminars.
3. Develop presentation and communication skills by presenting papers at domestic and overseas academic conferences.
4. Collaborate with domestic and international companies and research institutions to improve internship programs and foster practical, planning, and social skills.
5. Encourage the publication of research results in specialist journals and learn effective research presentation methods.

What We Offer

“Specialized courses” are designed to provide students with the required expertise in semiconductor system engineering, which will contribute to the development of highly specialized human resources to play leading roles in the field, and with the fundamental literacy commonly required in the boundary areas of information engineering, mathematics, and data science. Additionally, “science and engineering integrated educational courses” are designed to teach students the ability to understand other fields that are important in practice, utilize expertise and technology from a broad perspective, and employ the English-language skills required in the science and technology fields.
