Science is inquiring into laws and logic, motivated by interest in the fundamental principles of how the natural world is made. In the School of Science, students study the laws hidden within all sorts of phenomena, such as the elegant theorems built from layers of logic, the structure of the microworld from molecules and atoms to nuclei and elementary particles, and even the internal structure of Earth and the structure of the universe. Imagine the astonishment from the realization that the structure of the sprawling universe can be revealed through reasoning and experiments. Picture the joy in creating never-before-seen substances by making various materials react with each other, and the thrill of verifying inferences made about the interior structure of the earth through experiments above ground. The School of Science trains students to engage in this kind of cutting-edge research, and produces graduates who can succeed in society on the basis of these skills.
The School offers an ideal place for students hoping to pursue in depth those fields that spark their interest.
Being able to study the field you like, based on your interests, is the biggest appeal. Students will become able to decide what field to concentrate on based on the knowledge acquired after entering university among the fields of mathematics, physics, chemistry, and earth and planetary sciences. This is important as subjects taught at university are quite different from what students might have previously imagined.
You develop the fundamental skills for your preferred fields, which makes finding a job easier.
Students will find that their years of study at their School of choice is rewarded with good job prospects. Graduates of the School of Science have a reputation for having a solid academic foundation, so that when a problem occurs in the workplace, they do not just take temporary measures ? they get to the root cause and produce a real solution.
Making new friends at the School of Science will make the college experience even more fulfilling.
Our community of highly capable students intellectually stimulates each individual through interaction with their peers. Voluntary study groups are popular among our students, and some students make progress beyond what is usually required in class. Students with similar interests congregate here, making the place an ideal base for those wishing to immerse themselves in their studies and club activities.

With the increasing globalization of society in recent years, the internationalization of the course curriculum has also become an important issue. At the School of Science, we have a group of full-time faculty who are native English speakers teaching courses in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry since 2015. Attendance is not limited to international students. The courses are effective for improving English proficiency, and the number of Japanese students taking these courses is on the rise. We are making steady progress in our effort to internationalize our Basic Science and Technology Courses.
In the School of Science, we hold seminars and joint forums on cutting-edge scientific research by inviting guest lecturers from around the world. Undergraduate and graduate students have also planned and carried out international workshops. Through these avenues we provide students with opportunities to be directly involved with frontline activities.
The School is not only dedicated to the education of students but the training of faculty as well. The school offers study sessions on teaching and conducts mutual classroom observation by teaching staff. All of us are always looking for ways to provide the best education and learning environment possible for 黄瓜视频app students. Other initiatives include the conferral of awards on two of our junior faculty members every year in recognition of teaching excellence.
黄瓜视频app is newly launching a consortium to promote the realization of Super Smart Society (Society 5.0), and planning to develop future leaders who are capable of supporting the transformation to Super Smart Society. To accomplish this aim, 黄瓜视频app is looking for highly motivated companies who wish to join this consortium and support this education program.
The WISE (World-leading Innovative & Smart Education) program for Super Smart Society (WISE Program for SSS) is an integrated master's and doctoral degree program offered by the 黄瓜视频app Academy for Super Smart Society. The program's objective is to help students develop competencies and skills they will need to become "knowledge professionals" ("super PhDs") integrating physical space technologies with cyber space technologies as well as combining advanced sciences and technologies, such as quantum science and artificial intelligence.
Working on Research for the Visualization of Four-Dimensional Manifolds
Ayaka Ise
2nd-year master’s student, AY 2017
Department of Mathematics, School of Science
It is difficult to see four-dimensional manifolds (figures) in real life. In modern mathematics, we are able to visualize them by decomposing them into "handles". My research theme contemplates the four-dimensional sphere. Before we started studying pure mathematics in university, we learned about spheres as two-dimensional figures. However, mathematics allows us to consider higher dimensional spheres. Visualizing four-dimensional manifolds helps us to investigate four-dimensional spheres, and results in further development of mathematics. I am extremely intrigued by this challenging, worthwhile and groundbreaking work.
Unraveling the Mysteries of the Universe
Lukas Berns
2nd-year master’s student, AY 2018
Department of Physics, School of Science
Many aspects of the universe still remain unknown, one of such is the origin of all matter which forms everything from stars to us humans. To investigate this issue, we fire a beam of neutrinos from an accelerator in east-Japan at the Super-Kamiokande detector located 300 km away (T2K experiment), and precisely study the properties of these elementary particles which might have played an essential role in the matter formation process. Through worldwide cooperation we are starting to understand more and more about our wonderful universe — I can hardly contain my excitement!
Collaborating with Researchers Worldwide to Unravel the Origins of the Universe
Shota Izumiyama
1st-year master's student, AY 2019
Department of Physics, School of Science
I research in the field of elementary particles, the smallest particles in existence as well as the most fundamental units of nature. My aspiration is to better understand the types and nature of elementary particles to discover fundamental answers to the natural world, such as the origins of the universe. Since experiments in the domain of elementary particle physics are extremely large in scale, I conduct my research through collaborations with researchers around the world.
Limitless Possibilities of Transition Metals Make Research Efforts Worthwhile
Shoya Watanabe
1st-year doctoral student, AY 2017
Department of Chemistry, School of Science
Exploring the use of transition metal complexes in chemical reactions, I seek to synthesize complex carbon structures from simple organic compounds, and to illustrate their skeletal structures. The elements on the periodic table from Group 3 to Group 11 are called "transition metals", which are used around the world in the research and testing of organic chemical reactions. The possibilities regarding the use transition metals are limitless, making my research feel extremely worthwhile. I want to further my knowledge in and innovation in the use of organic chemical reactions that will lead to the ability to synthesize various materials and pharmaceuticals.
Working on New Reaction Development and Chemical Compound Synthesis with Complex Carbon Structures
Takuto Takano
1st-year master's student, AY 2019
Department of Chemistry, School of Science
The mission of my research is to develop new reactions using alpha- and beta-unsaturated carbene as well as to synthesize chemical compounds with complex carbon structures. I find it fascinating when such efforts generate unexpected results, and it makes me wonder why such phenomena occur. The sense of achievement I get when finally creating a compound I had envisioned is also very special. My dream is to formulate complex compounds from easily synthesized molecules in single connected sequences during these daily endeavors.

Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, School of Science
Acquiring information about Vesta, an asteroid between Mars and Jupiter, from 4.5 billion years ago is a truly captivating experience. I also find the process of conducting cutting-edge chemistry experiments and uncovering fresh data to be a lot of fun. Alongside my research, I am actively involved in outreach activities, sharing my passion with a wider community. I hope that my efforts help connect people with this fascinating discipline and increase female participation in research.
The Goal of Building an Established Scenario for Planetary Formation
Ayumu Kuwahara
2nd-year master's student, AY 2019
Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, School of Science
Structures known as "protoplanetary disks," comprised of gas and dust, form near emerging stars. It is believed that planets are created through the repeated collision and merging of small dust particles in the interior of such disks. I focus on the intermediate stage in this planetary formation process, in which gas remains in the vicinity of newborn planets. More specifically, my research uses the hydrodynamic approach to evaluate the impact of this gas on planetary formation.

The word "science" originates from the Latin word "scire", which means "to know". From the age of Greek philosophers, the desire of mankind to know how the world exists has driven the progress of science. Although science has led to the development of technology, which brought welfare to mankind by solving many problems, scientists in the four departments of the School of Science, in my opinion, are doing research driven by the pure enthusiasm of discovering for the first time what mankind had not known, regardless of its usefulness. We would be pleased to welcome you to our School of Science! Masahiro KUZE
