Infrastructure Development
2.1 Development and Environmental
Engineering Course
Construction, maintenance and renewal of various
infrastructures are of vital importance in every nation for developing all
types of industry and creating secure and firm build environments.
Infrastructure developments have been carried out as a national or an
international project under various environments, such as natural, social, economical
and human environments. Therefore the infrastructure development harmonized
with the environments is crucial to sustainable development of society and
industry. This course based on Civil and Environmental Engineering, and
International Development Engineering aims its mission to train creative
engineers and scientists. The graduates of this course are expected to play
pivotal roles in various projects, e.g., infrastructure development, resource
development and environment preservation projects, as a leading engineer or a
project manager.

2.2 Nuclear Engineering Course
Growing attention has been again placed on nuclear energy as
an ultimate measure for reduction of fossil fuel consumption and CO2
emission. Under the circumstances of global warming and the price hike of oil,
gas and coal, a number of countries have been considering the implementation of
nuclear power plants. Some
countries have initiated reconsideration on their denuclear policy. The key
factor of the nuclear energy development is the development of human resources. Our original course of international
nuclear engineering has been established in1993. Since then, a number of students have
joined us from many different countries and graduated from our course. They are
actively contributing to the development of industries and technologies in
their own countries. This graduate
course provides with core curriculum for nuclear reactor engineering and fuel
cycle technologies and also covers extended nuclear energy, such as beam,
accelerator, plasma sciences, nuclear fusion, energy and environment, and
social relations.

3. Guide to Study in Sustainable
Engineering Program
Sustainable Engineering Program (SEP) has been designed in
the scheme of eIntegrated Doctoral Education Programf in which the
Masterfs program is combined with the Doctoral program. Thus, all students in
SEP, including Masterfs degree recipients at other universities, must start
with the Masterfs program and are to study for both Masterfs and Doctoral
degrees.
To acquire the degrees, students in SEP must satisfy several
requirements as follows.
yMasterfs degreez
For a Masterfs degree a student must take 30 credits or more
and meet other requirements as follows:
(1) Credits
a. 16
credits or more must be acquired from the subjects provided by the special
course which she/he enrolls in.
b. 4
credits or more must be acquired from the subjects provided by other courses or
departments, common subjects in SEP or institute-wide subjects, such as
international communication subjects and Japanese cultures.
c.
The seminar must be acquired in each term. Note that the required number of
credits about the seminar might be different depending on the special course.
(2) Thesis
The student must
complete a special research, submit a thesis for the degree and take the final
examination given after the submission of her/his thesis for the qualification.
The students qualified by the examination committee can go
onto the Doctoral program with some formalities.
yDoctoral degreez
For a Doctoral degree a doctoral candidate must satisfy the
following requirements:
(1) Seminar
in each term and Off-Campus Project must be taken.
(2) Beside
the requirement (1), 26 credits or more must be acquired from the subjects
provided in the Masterfs and Doctoral programs.
(3) The
candidate must complete and submit a thesis for the degree, and take the final
examination and evaluation of his/her thesis.
The candidate who satisfies the above requirements and passes
the final examination is awarded a Doctoral degree.
The minimum period of study is three years in total, which
include both the Masterfs and Doctoral program for the both degrees. Note that
the above requirements are minimal and some additional requirements may be
conditioned depending on the special course. All students are strongly advised
to consult with their own supervisors about the study plan.
4. Tables of Course Subjects
All lectures offered in this program are given in English.
The students can learn the following subjects: 1) specialized subjects in the
enrolled course, 2) subjects in the other special courses relevant to the
specialty, and 3) common subjects in SEP. Beside the above subjects, the
students are required to take part in Off-Campus Project, i.e., internship
program primarily in domestic companies. The course subjects provided by SEP

Automn Semester (0-2-0)
Prof. Jun-ichi TAKADA and Prof. Shinobu YAMAGUCHI
[Aims]
This course aims at introducing practical approaches to
development projects. Traditional teaching in the classroom based on lectures
and exams, often do not address the need for practical, problem-solving skills.
The important and crucial ability for effective project management is the
ability to think, analyze, discuss, and develop solutions to problems as
professionals may encounter in the field. The case method is an effective
approach to strengthening these skills.

Advanced Technical Communication
Skills: ATC I
Spring Semester (
Professor David B. Stewart
[Aims and Scope]
In this roundtable seminar we intend to identity and
improve skills in academic writing (i.e., those used for technical journals) and
also to improve oral presentation techniques, assisted by Power Point or
similar media.
[Outline]
The basic approach to technical writing in the
fields of engineering and the sciences is unified. It can be learned through
content analysis and close attention to style. Each journal has its own house requirements.
Still, the structure of all peer-reviewed research follows what is referred to
as IMRaD: Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion. You describe (1) what
you did and (2) why you did it; then you tell (3) how you did it and (4) what
you found out. Finally, you must explain clearly what all this means for your readers.
You will learn to be clear and logical in approach and to write from the point
of view of a prospective reader. This is not a translation course. On
the contrary, you will be encouraged to
think and write in English.
In presentation, youfll be requested to speak so that you can be heard and also
to make your visual materials uniform and consistent, as well as attractive,
effective, and persuasive.
All this takes hard work and for some students may at first feel unfamiliar. To
achieve your aims, you must take risks, make mistakes, and then start again. To
do this, we must meet twice a week on a regular basis and you will spend a
certain amount of time outside class in preparation.
