5 Features

Learning materials sciences and engineering through a series of exciting lectures, exercises, and experiments

  1. 1

    Focusing on Three Fields of Study:
    Metals, Organic Materials, and Inorganic Materials

    Focusing on Three Fields of Study:Metals, Organic Materials, and Inorganic Materials

    In this department, an extensive range of materials science fields is grouped into three focuses — metals, organic materials, and inorganic materials — to allow students to choose the fields of specialization on which they wish to focus.

  2. 2

    From Basic to Expert — A Series of Fascinating Lectures
    Highly Acclaimed by Students

    From Basic to Expert — A Series of Fascinating Lectures Highly Acclaimed by Students

    The curriculum is systematically designed based on the abovementioned three focuses and provides a series of intriguing lectures that are highly acclaimed by students. Rather than one-way, passive learning, each lecture offers students an interactive learning experience in which they take on more active roles in their education. Furthermore, students have opportunities to enhance their levels of knowledge through several exercises.

  3. 3

    Extensive, More In-Depth Two-Year Experiment Courses

    Extensive, More In-Depth Two-Year Experiment Courses

    The Department of Materials Science and Engineering also places importance on creative manufacturing by conducting experiments in required courses. Students are required to take these courses in their second and third years, for three quarters each. Those in their second year will conduct basic experiments in the three focuses — metals, organic materials, and inorganic materials — and those in their third year will deepen their understanding of what they learned in major courses through more specialized experiments in one of the above three focuses, chosen by the students.

  4. 4

    Study Abroad Anywhere at Any Time
    in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering

    Study Abroad Anywhere at Any Time in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering

    Students in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering actively participate in a variety of short-term and long-term study abroad programs. They go abroad, communicate with students and researchers in other countries, and develop abilities to play active roles in the international community. Many students attain Tokyo Tech's target TOEIC score of 730 or higher by the time they complete their Bachelor's Degree Program.

    Studying Materials Science Enables Students to Work Actively around the World with Unlimited Opportunities

    Studying Materials Science Enables Students to Work Actively around the World with Unlimited Opportunities

    Most graduates of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering advance to a graduate program such as the Materials Science and Engineering Graduate Major or the closely related interdisciplinary Energy Science and Engineering Graduate Major, Human Centered Science and Biomedical Engineering Graduate Major, or the Nuclear Engineering Graduate Major. As listed on the web page of the Materials Science and Engineering Graduate Major, employment opportunities for students who complete the graduate programs can be found in a variety of industries and academic fields. There are unlimited opportunities for students at home and abroad after completing the programs.
