Skills and expressions

  • Students acquire the experimental techniques necessary to carry out research, are proficient in obtaining information in their field of specialization, and have the ability to effectively present their findings to academic societies and society.

Curriculum Policy (Master's Program)

Knowledge and understanding

  • Lectures are offered which enables students to acquire advanced knowledge in each specialized field of "Materials," "Cellular and Molecular Function," and "Physiological and Molecular Function.”

Thinking and judgment

  • Seminars are offered which enable students to review research progress and to verify it objectively and logically through the presentations and discussions of their own research.

Interest, volition, attitude

  • The “Research for Master’s Degree” is offered as a subject for improving comprehensive and practical research skills, conducting discussions and debates with the supervisors and providing experimental guidance. In addition, students are required to write a master's thesis that meets the standards set forth in the JWU Degree Regulations.

Skills and expressions

  • The “Seminar of Material and Biological Sciences” is offered to improve students' presentation skills by allowing them to present and discuss their own research.

Admission Policy (Master's Program)

Knowledge and understanding

  • Students who have a systematic knowledge of chemistry, biology, and the fundamentals of their field of specialization.
  • Students who have basic English language skills.

Thinking and judgment

  • Students who have acquired objective perspectives as well as evaluation and judgment skills based on logical thinking.

Interest, volition, attitude

  • Students who have a strong interest in natural science and a volition to engage in more advanced research in their respective fields of specialization, with the aim of becoming independent researchers or engineers who can make the most of their expertise in the future.

Skills and expressions

  • Students who have basic research skills in their own fields of expertise, as well as a certain level of experience and ability in obtaining and presenting information.
