Department of Information Processing Engineering

 

Overview
  Information underlies the human thought, judgments and activities. Information Processing is the technology to construct a system to process rapidly by computer volumes of data of letters, graphics, images, voices etc. The department is equipped with the latest computer platforms, UNIX and Windows bases, and a computer network connected to the world through intra and internet. It provides for a comprehensive course for information technology, which covers fundamental theories through specialized knowledge and techniques. Students are educated to be engineers with both creativity and solution ability of problems. Graduates get jobs at locals and nationwide in IT industry as well as in wide areas of other industry, trade, service, etc.

Undergraduate Program
Students take subjects in the above fields selectively, some of which accompany relevant experiments and/or practices. They have to be credited with prescript hours of the department curriculum for graduation. Students are also encouraged to acquire certified qualifications, especially to pass the Japan Information Technology Engineers Examination (JITEE). In the forth year, students have to select a research theme through the instruction of a professor. They are asked to offer a final report and a presentation on their achievements, which are subject to professors' judge for a bachelor degree. Further the department offers two years' master and three years' doctoral programs.

Graduate Program
  1. Master Program
    The master's program intends to build up engineers of information technology with creativity and solving ability of problems. The curriculum is composed of major four courses. Students have to belong to one of the courses and take subjects for subscribed credit hours. They are asked to make research under the instruction of a professor of the course and to present achievements at relevant conferences. Candidates are eligible for a degree of "Master of Engineering" on passing required examinations and completing a master's thesis.

    PROGRAM

    1. Fundamentals of Information Engineering

    5. Common Lectures
      Bio-information Measurement, Advanced Optical Transmission

  2. Doctoral Program
    Students in the Doctoral Program carry out their studies and research under the instruction of a professor of the course. The research works should make a contribution with originality and worthy of international acceptance to Information Technology. And the achievement should be presented at conferences and/or symposiums, and be published in scientific journals. On completion of the doctoral dissertation and passing required examinations, candidates are granted a degree of "Doctor of Engineering".
