For International Students
I think your everyday life is surrounded by various instruments. These instruments have been developed through many years' research. In the past, a "machine" was only "machine" (such as bicycle), and an electric instrument is only "electric instrument" (such as electric light bulb). In recent years, however, almost all mechanical instruments are controlled by computers which consists of many electric circuits and electronic devices such as LSIs. In this way, we are usually using many mechanical-electronic systems. This trend will move forward further and further. Our department is doing research and education for such mechanical-electronic systems and engineers.
Using a huge amount of such convenient instruments, however, may give significant negative impact to global and local environment. We have to therefore pursue techniques to make and operate such systems with as high efficiency as possible. Otherwise, it would be impossible to realize high-quality life in many countries in the world. I think this is one of the most important policies for the engineers who study and develop next-generation mechanical-electronic instruments.
In our department, we welcome students who want to become such an engineer for the 21st century, by preparing a comprehensive education program to realize your dream. For more information, please contact our e-mail address shown in the "Introduction" page.
