Students study required subjects including humane and social science, communication, mathematics and natural science, and basic engineering, as well as elective subjects of their majoring fields. They are expected to both develop various points of view and establishing their academic specialty.
In order to acquire skills and knowledge of interdisciplinary fields of engineering, a concept of PBL (Problem/Project Based Learning) is applied to some experiment subjects such as “Basic Industrial Measurement,” or “Basic Engineering Seminar.”
In addition to present JABEE accredited curriculum, the following subjects are supposed to open so as to develop higher level practical engineering skills:

1. ”Socio-engineering” field subjects concerning global viewpoints, contribution to community, and industrial technology.
2. ”Programs of students’ own initiative” including internship, development of students’ project designing ability.
3. ”Research promoting” activity including cooperation with other institutions.
