College of Agriculture and Forestry, 2 normal schools and a technical college were combined to form University ofMiyazaki, and the Miyazaki College of Agriculture and Forestry set up the Faculty of Agriculture with Departments ofAgronomy, Forestry, Animal Science, Veterinary Science and Agricultural Chemistry. The Faculty of Agriculture, by
successively expanding into several specialized scientific fields, eventually had 8 departments: Agronomy, Forestry,
Animal Science, Veterinary Science, Agricultural Chemistry, Fisheries, Agricultural Engineering and Grassland Science.
In 2010, after reorganizing the Departments, the Faculty now has Departments of Agricultural and Environmental
Sciences, Forest and Environmental Sciences, Biochemistry and Applied Biosciences, Marine Biological andEnvironmental Sciences, Animal and Grassland Sciences, and Veterinary Science. Graduate School of Agriculture for
Master's course (two-year course) was established in 1967, had 5 graduate courses: Agricultural Biology, Regional
Resource Management Sciences, Forest and Grassland Sciences, Fishery Sciences, Biochemistry and Applied
Biosciences. From April 2007, a Doctoral course in Interdisciplinary Graduate School of Agriculture and Engineering

Facilities(three-year course which combine agriculture and engineering), started with the purpose of integrating education and

International Research on Reducing CO₂ Emissions from Deforestation andEmission of CO₂ from deforestation and forest degradation in tropicalforests is a critical issue in climate change mitigation efforts. REDD+
is an international framework for supporting forest management
activities in developing countries. As a REDD+ activity, monoculture
plantation (e.g. rubber and oil palm) is favored because it facilitates
both carbon sequestration and income generation. However, large
scale plantations damage local ecosystems and cause biodiversity
loss. We have been attempting to determine sustainable forest
management activities that balance carbon sequestration, income

Department of Forest andEnvironmental Sciences
Outline of the Department
Forest and Environmental Sciences is an academic field which sees forests, rural and mountaincommunities, and cities as one continuous space of mutual inter action; it aims to uncover the
benefits (functionality; services) of forests and, based on this, establish techniques for their
management. We must work out measures for achieving balanced ecosystem services inlandscapes, which connect a variety of ecosystems, from the perspective of protecting naturalenvironments, forming safe and comfortable living environments, and sustainable use of
biological resources.

Global Human Resources Development Program is a four-year bachelor program, in which
students can obtain a degree of agricultural science from the University of Miyazaki, by completing
English-taught courses in the University of Miyazaki and the overseas partner university.
Specialized education provides students with courses on “bioresources” and“ biotechnology” ascompulsory core subjects, and courses on other fields of agricultural science as elective subjects.

The Veterinary Teaching Hospital was established in 1953 with the aim of promoting clinicalpractice, education and research of veterinary medicine. Since then, the hospital has contributed
much to the realization of that purpose. In 1985, the hospital moved to the new campus, and was
expanded and strengthened by the addition of modern facilities such as ultrasonic and X-ray
equipments, for large animals, etc., in order to meet the demands of current researchdevelopment.

New students admitted in April will take courses in general education and courses on thefundamentals of specialized education in the University of Miyazaki until July, and continue theseeducational courses in Kasetsart University, Thailand for about two years. Then, students who
have passed a qualifying examination will return to the University of Miyazaki to take courses inadvanced specialized education (including graduation thesis) focusing mainly on “bioresources”
and “biotechnology” for two years, and will complete the program and graduate from the Universityof Miyazaki in March, in four years after admission.

Agricultural Museum
The Agricultural Museum is located in the Kibana campus.Various kinds of specimens are
exhibited, for example, native wildlife and fish, skeletons of mammals, blocks of timber, bamboo,
seeds of trees, fossils of animals and plants, farming machines of old and modern types, andsections of typical soil composition from Miyazaki area. The museum is available for the study
and research of the faculty and students of the University, as well as is opened daily for the public,
