Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Curriculum Policy
(1) Curriculum organization policy
Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (Doctoral Program) In order to acquire the skills listed in the diploma policy of the major, students will systematically acquire more advanced specialized knowledge in the field of intelligent information systems engineering, which covers information engineering, electrical and electronic engineering, and their boundary areas. We will organize a curriculum that will lead to the cultivation of interdisciplinarity necessary to explore new intelligent information systems engineering that will bring about change in society and create value. In addition to lecture courses to further deepen the knowledge and skills acquired in the undergraduate education and master's program and to acquire advanced specialized knowledge, practical courses are arranged to discover cutting-edge issues in specialized fields and cultivate the ability to perform tasks. In addition, internship courses are offered to develop the ability to collaborate with researchers and engineers in different fields and develop new interdisciplinary fields.
(2) Policy on the content of education and how to implement education
The subjects studied in the three years consist of "specialized subjects" and "common subjects".
For specialized courses, the subjects necessary to acquire the abilities of [Perspectives (A), (B), (C)] stipulated in the Diploma Policy are assigned. Faculty & Graduate Schools In order to further deepen the knowledge and skills acquired in the master's program and to acquire a higher level of expertise, the lecture courses corresponding to [Perspective (A)] and [Perspective (B)] are designated as "Advanced Intelligent Information Systems Courses" for each field of intelligent information systems engineering (computer systems, mathematical intelligence, media information processing, systems science, electronic devices, information and communication engineering, integrated circuit engineering, etc.). The course will be held as. The Faculty Member in charge will give lectures in an appropriate format (seminar format, lecture format, group discussion format, etc.) for each subject. In addition, in order to acquire the ability to set topics and interdisciplinarity through the investigation of previous research and discussions with others, special seminar courses are conducted in small groups centered on direct guidance by Supervisor, and "special planned research" to cultivate research execution and problem-solving skills by setting and planning tasks on their own will be arranged as "seminar practice courses".
In the common courses, as courses corresponding to [Perspectives (B), (C), (D)], we have prepared a "Collaborative Graduate School Course" that allows students to learn directly about various practical applications of intelligent information systems engineering technology from practical experience and corporate experts, and provides an opportunity to cultivate creativity on how to widely implement intelligent information systems engineering technology in society. In addition, in order to practically acquire the ability to collaborate with researchers and engineers of different nationalities and specialties and develop new interdisciplinary fields, comprehensive knowledge subjects ("International Communication" courses) and internship courses are arranged.
③ Policy regarding methods for evaluating learning outcomes
In order to develop engineers and researchers who have acquired the perspectives set out in the diploma policy, students are graded by exams and reports for lectures, and by reports and oral exams for experiments, practical training and exercises. Course grades are expressed in five levels: S, A, B, C and D, with S, A, B and C being passes and D being a fail. Students who pass are awarded the designated number of credits. In addition, for dissertations, the examination criteria and methods are clearly stated, and the dissertation examination and final examination are conducted rigorously by the Dissertation Examination Committee based on theses.
