The Graduate School of Science and engineering has concluded an agreement on a joint graduate school program with research institutes operated
by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, the Institute of Physical and Chemical Research (“RIKEN,” a national research and development
agency), the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (“AIST,” a national research and development agency), and Japan
Aerospace Exploration Agency (“JAXA,” also a national research and development agency), based on which students can receive researchguidance from visiting professors from the partner institutes. The names, study fields, and study descriptions of visiting professors are mentioned
separately after the list of this University’s faculty members in each Department. For details, please contact a university faculty member who has
the same field number as the visiting professor from a partner institute.

Important Reminders for Applicants of the
Department of Mathematical Sciences
Department of Mathematical Sciences

1. Mathematics I
Answer 4 questions in total, including 2 questions from differential/integral and 2 from linear algebra(matrix, linear mapping, and vector space).
2. Mathematics II (Only for summer examination)
9 basic questions from the following scope. Choose 2 questions to answer.
Scope of questions:･ Field of algebra (standard form of linear transformation, metric vector space, basics of grouptheory & ring theory)･ Field of geometry (general topology, differential geometry of curved surface/line)･ Field of analysis (vector analysis, differential equations theory, complex functions theory)･ Field of applied mathematics (discrete mathematics, algorism)
3. English language
2 questions including English to Japanese translation and English composition (including Japanese to
English translation). Answer those 2 questions.
4. Previous examination questions (Mathematics I, Mathematics II) are available on the website of the
Department(URL: http://www.se.tmu.ac.jp/mis/).
5. A questionnaire survey is conducted, which is used as reference material for the second-stage examination(oral examination). As the questionnaire sheet is enclosed with the exam admission card, fill out the sheet
and bring it with you on the day of the oral examination. It will be collected at the examination venue.
6. Please enter application field number and name of faculty member in the “application field number”
column.

Important Reminders for Applicants of the
Department of Physics
Department of Physics

1. Subjects on the examination
Physics I: Mechanics, Electromagnetics
Physics II: Quantum mechanics, Thermal and statistical mechanics
2. Selection procedures First examination
Examinees receiving high scores in the written examination are selected from each of groups A to D.
 Second examination
An oral examination is conducted for each of groups A to D, and applicants are assessed in acomprehensive manner based on the results of the first and second examinations. Those who receivescores above the passing score are accepted.
Enter the application fields in the “application field number” column of the Application Form as follows: First choice:

Write down one field number from (1) to (16).

 Second choice

Choose at most two from group codes A to D and write them down from theleft in the order of preference.

(Note)
Even when the group of the second choice field is the same as that of the first choice field, you must still
enter group code A to D in the “second choice application field” column.
3. In the case that the thesis advisor in the field you are applying is due to retire during your enrollment in
the Master’s Program, a replacement advisor or any other advisor in the group will take over and be incharge of supervising your research.
4. Important information on the entrance examination for the Department of Physics is available on thefollowing websites. Make sure to check the latest information.

Department of Chemistry
Department of Chemistry

1. Each laboratory has its own quota. Therefore, even if an applicant satisfies the eligibility criteria, he/she
may not be admitted to the laboratory of his/her choice. Please contact the thesis advisor of the laboratoryof choice for the quota and the number of applicants.
2. In the “application field number” column of the Application Form, enter the field number of your first
choice in the “first choice” column. In the “second choice” column, enter the field numbers of the second
choice to the fifth choice in the order of preference. Failure to do so would mean rejection of application
or failure to be assigned to a laboratory of your second or lower choice.

inorganic/analytical chemistry, and physical chemistry. How to choose questions is explained on the front
page of the question leaflet that is distributed on the day of the examination.
Previous chemistry examination questions are available on the Department’s website.

2. As each field has a quota, an applicant may not be admitted to the field of his/her choice even if he/she passes
the entrance examination. In the case where an applicant satisfies the acceptance criteria but the quota for thefields of his/her first and second choices has been filled by applicants with far more superior results, he/she isaccepted under the status of “Field Undecided.”
Taking the above into consideration, carefully decide the fields of the first and second choices. It is
recommended that you contact the faculty member of the fields of your first and second choices before
application and obtain details of the research and the number of laboratory members in the field.
3. The field for a “Field Undecided” successful applicant is decided based on the consultations after enrollment.
The “Field Undecided” successful applicant may be admitted to the field of his/her choice if there is any
admission cancellation.
