The Division employs a program system
and curriculums. Seven programs are mutually linked.
Cross-sectional and organic unification of these programs enables
us to organize projects that meet various social requirements.
Students select a major program and a sub program.
After completing the major program, they participate in a research
project and incorporate the results into a master's thesis and a doctoral
thesis.
This enables them to acquire knowledge necessary for human resources
that can lead industrial society or for engineers and researchers/developers
that can be immediately of service to the society.
In addition, it can be expected that the completion of the sub program
will allow them to acquire a wide variety of knowledge across environment
and energy.

Environmental Management
|
Under
the program, students design a sustainable system for an area straddling
both systems of engineering technology and society, and also learn
and study principles and theories and practical activities for managing
environmental actions under a cooperation between actors.
Being conscious of horizontal connection with other programs, we study
and educate an environmental system and environmental management for
solving environment and energy issues.
Students make researches on a comprehensive process from discovery
of a problem to formulation of a management program and operation
of the program, the design of a social system under which the result
of analysis on a phenomenon is evaluated in consideration of uncertainties
and so on and design a platform for environmental communication, whereby,
proposing a technique and a social system to form a sustainable recycling-oriented
society.
Through these activities, we develop human resources that can contribute
to national and local governments, international organizations, firms,
and private organization, etc., with their special skills. |

Students
gain an insight into a relationship between human beings and environment
and seek the modality of sustainable cities and living environment.
Accepting that human environment is spatially made up of social environment
elements such as politics, economy, legal framework, history and culture,
and nature and artificial buildings, they pursue the modality of coexistence
of "people and people," "people and nature," "people
and technology," "people and (characteristic) individual
places" in the spatial fields of the environment.
"Design" shown by this Program does not simply mean to decorate
a thing in an aesthetic manner, but to give a structure to the thing
by conceiving its makeup based on the relationship among various elements.
From this viewpoint, they study the way of elucidating a mechanism
for human environment, specifically urban environment and the way
of "design", the ways of residents and local municipalities'
participation in "design" and their cooperation for the
design and the modality of an information system necessary for these
activities.
With an eye on the above goals, we conduct education and research
that fuse principles and theories in humanities and social science
without being constraint to engineering.
In addition, we develop human resources that can assume concrete planning
and coordination for the establishment of sustainable city and living
environment from the viewpoints of national and local governments'
staff and consultant engineers, and nurture researchers involved in
the related areas. |

Circulatory Material
and Resources System
|
We aim
to establish a system that is based on the development of recyclable
materials and materials aimed at recycling waste and on recycling
techniques for the resources.
For it, our research covers the design and creation process with which
materials can be easily recycled, without being constraint only to
the improvement of their functionality.
Additionally, it also covers the methods for managing resource recycling
in terms of environmental protection. In particular, we advance our
own research with a focus on environment-conscious materials, low
environmental load process and recycling techniques and develop the
methods for recycling waste and using recyclable resources.
Our emphasis for the development of researchers is placed on the fostering
of human resources that acquired proficiency in problem-solving environmental
techniques with various methods and obtained management skills of
resource recycling such as efficient use of resources and production
of ecological materials, without being constraint to the quest for
principles and theories. |

Sustainable Energy System
|
We aim
to develop an ecological energy system necessary for establishing
a sustainable society.
Students solve various energy issues, covering technical aspects of
science in a micro area of fuel and materials to system configuration
of various element techniques and interface between energy and people
to social acceptability of large-scale energy system, from the aspects
of both technology and human science.
We develop conversion techniques and materials for using ecological
energy such as hydrogen and sunlight. In consideration of global energy
cycle, this program is intended to make research on energy and risk
management.
In addition, a technique to use quantum beams for analysis and as
energy source is studied.
Through these studies, we develop human resources that can aspire
to developing new sustainable energy, understanding various demand-side
energy techniques in the social system, recognizing long-range issues
related to the techniques, and acquiring the methods for solving the
problems. |

Preservation of Sustainable
Environmental System
|
The program
is intended to quest for an engineering approach to protect environment,
coexist with nature and establish a safer and securer society.
Maintaining a viewpoint with which environment is taken as a combination
of global and social systems, we conduct education and research with
an eye toward individual techniques.
The research covers environmental monitoring and analysis techniques
for elucidating a relationship between nature and human activities,
methods for evaluating environmental risk involved in the soundness
of human health and natural ecosystem, application of ecosystem analysis
and measurement techniques to medical and welfare fields, water/air/soil
cleanup and restoration techniques, engineering response techniques
for reducing human loads to environment.
We develop human resources that can contribute to the development
and implementation of environmental protection techniques, those that
can commercialize the protection techniques and researchers that assume
basic research on the fields involved in the protection. |

Quantum and Energy

Nuclear
engineering is an integrated science that is supported by a wide variety
of academic fields, so requires knowledge on basic areas such as physics,
chemistry, biology and mathematic to application areas such as nucleonics,
materials, energy conversion, safety, environmental science, measurement
and control and computational simulation science.
Taking over the policy for the former nucleardepartment's research
and educational activities, this program is aimed to conduct researches
for advancing the techniques for nuclear energy, energy resource essential
for our country in the future and for developing a nuclear energy
system that has a higher level of safety, reliability and environmental
protection, and to nurture human resources that can accomplish such
development.
In addition to the application of existing techniques, we aim to develop
human resources that can contribute to the solution of social problems,
with a wide perspective covering a micro world to the entire society,
a macro world, using the characteristics of nuclear engineering, a
fusion of basic and application fields. |

Environmental Risk Management
|
We aim
to nurture human resources that acquire systematic and practical skills
concerning environmental risk management and have knowledge and capabilities
to develop "anticipation" and "preventive actions"
or organizational "future orientation" with an eye toward
human sustainability when the movements of new environment emerge.
In order to develop practical engineers and researchers, we provide
lectures and drills by interior and exterior practitioners with pragmatic
experiences and lectures concerning risk analysis on the harm of chemicals
and concerning communication and project management among different
concerned parties, while actively introducing an OJT approach, offering
on-the-job case-based learning and supporting on-site training.
In this program, if students complete over 30 credits of opened courses,
they can be certified as an "Environmental Risk Manager"
by an exterior accreditation organization. |
