About Us
Vision
Integrate the real world (physical) and information (cyber) as one system
to create new values for future society
The various equipment and infrastructures that support our lives, as well as living things including us are composed of various elements. However, these elements function and create value as an integrative system. In the Department of Systems and Control Engineering, we foster the basic ability necessary to objectively analyze everything — concrete and abstract — in nature and society as a system and to create new systems of value based on this knowledge. Students gain scholastic abilities in measurement, control, design, and system science as well as in areas such as machines, electricity, and information. Furthermore, students gain an advanced and integrative understanding of these areas through exercises. Through this education, we develop our students to become creative and innovative individuals who can make beneficial contributions to society.

Message from the Department Chair
A "system" means any complicated thing or matter. To create a new system and/or manage an existing system efficiently, it is especially important to understand and analyze the target system as a whole. The Department of Systems and Control Engineering will provide courses that train individuals to navigate systems that help us predict and control anything. Our interest includes not only artificial systems – such as robots, cars, planes, power plants, medical systems, and intelligent systems – but also life, society, and nature. We believe that you will become an engineer or researcher who can create novel systems to contribute our society through our educational program.
