Fostering Leading Electrical Technicians
in the 21st Century
Electrical and Electronics Engineering
- the Foundation for Technology
The Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering covers
a broad array of areas in the field, such as electricity, electronics,
communication, optics, and information technology. Those research
areas are making remarkable progress as infrastructure technology
for all kinds of industry, ranging from energy, control, communication,
information processing, semiconductors, electronics, computer
software, communication systems and so on.
Our curriculum allows students to study effectively from basic
knowledge of a wide spectrum of electrical and electronics engineering
to advanced technology, and help them to become engineers who
know a lot about the field and can apply their knowledge to
different situations.
Introduction of the course system ensures
better education for students
Our curriculum is arranged in a way that allows students to
take the next step into a specialty area of study that they
are interested in, after thorough understanding of basic subjects.
Furthermore, from the second year on, they are allowed to choose
one of two courses, "the Electrical and Electronics Course"
or "the Information and Communication Course." In
this way, they can study their specialty areas more systematically
and efficiently.
Besides these features, every member of the teaching staff in
our department is required to be a student advisor and pay individual
attention to students from their first year onward. In this
way, we believe we can achieve tailored education. To ensure
that each student acquires essential knowledge in the field,
we are trying various ideas in our curriculum. For example,
some classes are arranged in a proficiency-dependent manner.
Also, some classes are repeated twice a year (once in the first
semester and again in the second semester).
Experiments and seminars are conducted in small classes with
plenty of time allotted to them so that students can take their
time in understanding theories and learning practical techniques.
We are especially careful to notice if the first year students
are really interested in whatever activities they are involved
in and are actually having fun with them.
Electrical and Electronics Course
The goal of this course is to train experts in advanced electricity
systems and electrical and electronics devices. Students are
expected to learn a broad range of knowledge and technology
from environment-friendly energy systems to highly functional
semiconductor integrated circuits.
Information and Communication Course
The goal of this course is to train experts who can flexibly
adapt to an IT society by learning about technologies such as
software development, multimedia communication, and optical
application. |
