16 Introduction of Thesis Advisors, Visiting Professors from Partner
Institutions, and Study Fields of the Graduate School of Science(1)

Professors whose names are marked with “*” are scheduled to retire in March 2020 and those marked with “**”, in September 2020 and thosemarked with “***”, in March 2021 and those marked with “****”, in March 2022.

(2)

Numbers (1), (2), …on the rightmost column should correspond to the field number written down in the “application field" of the Application
Form.
In the case of applicants of the Department of Physics, however, enter only the field number in the first choice column under “application field" ofthe Application Form and enter only group numbers A to D in the second choice column. (For details, refer to “Important Reminders forApplicants of the Department of Physics.)
Further, in the case of applicants of the Department of Chemistry, enter at most 4 field numbers from the second choice to the fifth one in thesecond choice column under “application field” of the Application Form, from the left in the order of preference. (For details, refer to “ImportantReminders for Applicants of the Department of Chemistry.)(3)

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.

STUDENT VISA SUPPORT REQUEST FORM

Please be sure to submit this form along with your admission application documents to the academic affairs office of your desired
graduate school (graduate admission) or the Admissions Center (undergraduate). All students are required to submit this form.
Category A: You have to apply for a student visa assoon as possible. If you have the intention to enroll in
TMU after passing the entrance exam, you need toobtain a Certificate of Eligibility (COE) for visa
application. TMU applies for it to Japan’s Immigration
Bureau on behalf of you. The International Affairs
Office will contact you to give information aboutfurther procedures after you pass the exam.
Category B: For those who want to change yourstatus to ‘student’, you need to apply for a change of
the Status of residence. After being enrolled in TMU,
please come to our International Affairs Office withyour student ID, residence card and the receipt foryour tuition payment you made to the University.
Category C: You need to apply for an extension of
the period of stay soon. Please come to ourinternational affairs office with your student ID,
residence card and the receipt for your tuition
payment. If your period of stay is expired before
March or September, you have to extend at theprevious educational institution/employer.

Category D: You need to change the accepting institution
to our university from the previous one. Further

information about procedures will be provided atorientation for newly enrolled students.
