Graduate School of Engineering : Applied Chemistry

Master’s Program

1. Objective of Education and Research
   To develop individuals who will be at the core of science and technology associated with the creation of functional substances, students in this course will be systematically educated in comprehensive content relating to leading edge fields, including chemical fundamentals, and will undertake research on topics of great importance now and into the future that are related to chemistry and chemical engineering. The process will develop individuals who are brimming with originality and who have the ability to problem solve. In addition to developing individuals who will gain a high level of expertise and deep learning about chemistry, the Program will also develop individuals who have a healthy conscience that enables them to make judgments about chemistry and chemical engineering from a broader perspective to make contributions to society on the foundation of Doshisha University’s basic tenets - liberalism, Christianity and internationalism.

2. Guidelines for Human Resource Development
   The objective is to develop human resources capable of exercising the following abilities:
   
   1. Ability to solve problems related to chemistry and chemical engineering, the ability to make presentations, and the international perspective and common sense to understand different cultures of both one’s own and other countries.
   2. Expert research capabilities to respond flexibly to issues in the chemical and chemical engineering fields sought by contemporary and international society, which has been undergoing rapid change in recent years.
   3. Ability to apply the above capabilities satisfactorily to development and research undertaken in a group, such as a project, and the ability to adjust in order to engage in problem solution in a spirit of collaboration.

Doctoral Program

1. Objective of Education and Research
   Just as in the master’s program, the Program delivers education and research founded in liberalism, Christianity and internationalism, guided by the awareness that chemistry and chemical engineering are an academic foundation and fundamental technology that humankind must share if society’s form, based on modern civilization, is to be sustainable into the future. Students also undertake research into issues relating to chemistry and chemical engineering that is and will be the core of the future, and the objective is to develop engineers and researchers who have strong will and energy to play a leading role, and are capable of making the right judgments from a broad perspective about the issues in which chemistry or its engineering should engage into the future and the directions in which it should advance. The Program also develops educators who have sufficient ability to be able to contribute to the development of such individuals.

2. Guidelines for Human Resource Development
   The Program objective is to develop human resources capable of exercising the following abilities:
   
   1. Ability to make judgments about the role of chemistry and chemical engineering in contributing to society from a broad perspective, to identify research problems related to those judgements and to display leadership in achieving their solutions.
   2. Communication ability to disseminate the results of research, with a command of both expert knowledge and an international perspective and common sense to understand diverse cultures.
   3. Ability to contribute to the development of contemporary and international society through progress in scientific technology, and the ability as an educator with a high level of expert knowledge, to develop the next generation of capable people.
