Characteristics of learning Faculty of Engineering
We will introduce the characteristics of learning in the Faculty of Faculty of Engineering.
To develop human resources who are always at the forefront of science and technology and who will lead the times
Message from Dean
Faculty of Engineering Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology was formerly known as Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology Textile College, which was itself a successor to Sericulture Experiment Section? Naito-Shinjuku Branch? Office Ministry of Home Affairs Industrial Promotion Board, which was established in 1874. Since changing its name to Faculty of Engineering in 1962, the university has been producing "human resources who can contribute to the realization of a sustainable society by acquiring knowledge and skills from the basics to specialists in the field of science and technology in the field of engineering."
The mission of Faculty of Engineering at our university is to "produce talent that will change the world through science and technology." In order to change the world through science and technology, I believe it is important to acquire knowledge in one's own field of expertise as well as to always be curious about things outside one's field of expertise. Also, since it is impossible to solve complex social problems by oneself, it is necessary to communicate with others, understand each other, and work together. In order to learn these things efficiently, Faculty of Engineering has established an educational system called "Keyaki-style education." There is a wonderful row of Keyaki trees on the Koganei campus where Faculty of Engineering is located. A single Keyaki tree has a thick, tall trunk and wide, spreading branches and leaves. The shape of the tree is modeled after that of a keyaki tree. The thick trunk of the Keyaki tree represents each person's expertise, and the wide branches and leaves represent diversity. This is an educational system that can cultivate researchers and engineers who have high levels of expertise, are not limited to their specialty, and can be active in an interdisciplinary manner by looking at other fields.
Our Faculty of Engineering is based on an educational curriculum consisting of six departments, and considering the fact that more than 80% of undergraduate graduates go on to graduate school, we have organized a highly specialized educational curriculum that is conscious of the connection to graduate school education. We offer many practical subjects other than classroom learning, such as experimental training subjects, laboratory experience assignments, internships at companies, overseas language training, and short-term study abroad. We also secure opportunities to take a wide variety of specialized subjects in collaboration with national universities in the western Tokyo campus.
In this way, all faculty and staff are always conscious of the need to continue producing "people who will change the world through science and technology," and we would like to continue our efforts to keep the PDCA cycle of our educational programs running. We are proud of the fact that many of our graduates go on to play active roles in society, and this is also fed back to current students, so we would like to continue to maintain this virtuous cycle with the cooperation of all faculty, staff, and students.

Purpose of learning/Characteristics of learning
Faculty of Engineering provides students with the opportunity to learn the fundamentals of science and technology in the field of engineering, specialized knowledge and techniques, as well as the liberal arts that will help them develop logical thinking skills, expressive abilities, the ability to accept diversity, and the ability to work collaboratively in order to demonstrate their expertise.
Our goal is to nurture individuals who have the expertise necessary to carve out their own path in life with autonomy, and the ability to consider and judge the various challenges facing humanity from multiple perspectives, organize their thoughts, and express them to others in a way that is easy to understand.
4-year learning flow (curriculum)
The curriculum is organized along the lines of "Developing intellectual professionals in engineering through Keyaki-style education - Nurturing the trunk of expertise and spreading the branches of diversity." With department names that make it easy to understand the specialty or academic field that will be the student's major, each department is designed to encompass multiple academic fields, establishing expertise and cultivating the interdisciplinarity required to survive in an increasingly diverse society.
The group of subjects learned over the four years consists of "general education subjects," "specialized basic subjects," and "specialized subjects." Students can begin studying basic specialized subjects from the first semester of their first year in order to develop the core of their expertise, and in their third and fourth years they can take liberal arts courses and in-campus internships to expand their diversity. Through lab experience assignments in the third semester of the third year and graduation thesis in the fourth year, students develop the ability to independently and proactively plan and carry out research.

Purpose of learning/Characteristics of learning
The Faculty of Faculty of Engineering aims to train individuals with the fundamentals and specialized knowledge and skills related to science and technology in the field of engineering, to cultivate the ability to discern the essence of the problems that need to be solved, and to develop broad-based, specialized knowledge that can be used to realize a sustainable society.
4-year learning flow (curriculum)
The curriculum is divided into 11 courses according to the characteristics of each academic field, and the curriculum is organized based on the objectives and philosophy of each course.
The subjects studied over the four years consist of "Liberal Arts Subjects" and "Basic and Specialized Liberal Arts Subjects." The curriculum is flexible, so it is possible to study a specialty in the first year and take general humanities subjects in the fourth year. In the graduation thesis in the fourth year, students will develop the ability to independently and independently create and carry out a research plan.
