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 2023 and those marked with “**,” in March 2024.

(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.
