1. Program Outline

The goal of the education in the department is to produce the engineers who can take the leadership in the sustainable development of the global society by utilizing the science and technology. The areas of their contributions include the industry, public works, information and communication technologies, and environment. Toward this goal, several unique components are integrated into the course: first, skills on project formulation and management are emphasized. In addition to the case method, the ongoing international development projects are used as the course materials for the analyses of the problems and their solutions. The skills provide the vision of the high level “problem solution” to the engineering students. Second, advanced knowledge in engineering fields is provided with the focus on the sustainable development. Third, internship and field work are provided as an elective course. Fourth, thesis writing provides an opportunity for the training to build the capacity as the engineer. The searching for solution for a specific development problem is emphasized in addition to technology itself. Therefore, a co-advisor from different engineering fields may be appointed on request.
The weights of the curricula in international development and the engineering are about 3:7.

International Graduate Program (C) on Global Values, Decision Making, and Culture

Master and Doctoral Program

Program discription
This program targets interdisciplinary studies on global values, decisinon makig, and culture. Solving the social problems in the 21st century requires appropriate understanding of global values and cultures in the world, and prominent ability on value judgment and decision making. Lecture courses (Category I to IV) in this program give students essencial knowledge of values, decision making, culture, and technologies. “Discussion and Presentation” courses (Cantegory V) require that students have a presentation on your research once a year and brush up discussion skills through debates and group presentations. Special seminars (Category VI) provide basics on humanities, social sciences, mathematics, information sciences, and communication skills. Through “Projects, Workshops, and Internships” (Category VII) and Colloquium with supervisors, students can improve their expartise. Master thesis and Doctoral dissertation are mandatory for gaining master's degree and doctoral degree, respectively.

Requirements
For the master degree, the following requirements must be met:

 · 30 credits or more in total, which must include 4 credits or more from; the courses provided by another department than “Value and Decision Science”; or the courses in Graduate General Courses on Humanities, Science and Technology; or the courses in Graduate Wide Area Subjects.

 · 6 credits or more from the Categories I, II, III, or IV;

 · 6 credits or more from the Categories V;

 · 6 credits or more from the Categories VI or VII;

 · Credits of Colloquium (from I to IV) in each semester (4 credits in total); and

Dept. of Civil and Environmental Engineering

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. Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering aims its mission to train creative engineers and scientists.

Courses in Dept of Civil and Environmental Engineering are categorized into seven fields, namely, (1) Structural Engineering, (2) Hydraulic and Environmental Engineering, (3) Geotechnical Engineering, (4) Transportation and Infrastructure Planning, (5) Concrete and Material Engineering, (6) Earthquake Engineering, (7) Common Basic Science. As requirements for master degree, the student in Dept. of Civil and Environmental Engineering should acquire at least two courses from the field which she/he specializes. The student should also acquire at least one course from each of the other four fields, in which the category (7) is compulsory.
