The
Interdisciplinary Graduate School
of Engineering Sciences was established
in 1979 to provide graduate education
and research courses without having
undergraduate courses. With the
introduction of the new “Graduate
School/Graduate Faculty” system
at Kyushu University in 2000,
the Graduate School, as established
in 1979, was reorganized into
two entities: one is an educational
entity, the present Interdisciplinary
Graduate School of Engineering
Sciences, and the other is a research
entity to which faculty members
belong, namely the Faculty of
Engineering Sciences. The education
at the Graduate School is managed
by intimate and active cooperation
of faculty members belonging to
the Faculty of Engineering Sciences,
the Research Institute for Applied
Mechanics and the Institute of
Materials Chemistry and Engineering.
Since its establishment,
the Graduate School has been playing
a leading role in education and
research in interdisciplinary
fields of science and engineering.
Due to the drastic increase of
material needs of society in line
with rapid developments in science
and technology, we are now facing
unprecedented issues in energy
and the environment. In order
to respond to the need to create
a symbiotic society, the Graduate
School is focusing on education
and conducting research in materials,
energy, the environment and their
integrated fields. |

Type
of Students Sought:
The Interdisciplinary Graduate
School of Engineering Sciences
seeks students who are graduates
of universities from across the
country or from abroad as well
as professionals, who have an
adequate scholarship and a thirst
for knowledge coupled with a strong
interest in symbiotic technology
and an awareness of issues to
do with materials, energy and
the environment.
Teaching
and Research Philosophy:
It is our aim to help students
become engineers and researchers
who can play an active role globally
in the establishment of a society
of sustainable growth, who have
advanced specialist knowledge
in symbiotic technology and the
ability to explore and resolve
issues in materials, energy, the
environment and their integrated
fields. |
