●Architecture and Civil Engineering
Construction technology, which is responsible for the development of spaces and facilities that support diverse social
activities such as living, working, relaxing, and moving, must ensure safety and security and harmony withthe environment, and must become more advanced in today's society, which is hit by severe natural disasters.
The department aims to nurture advanced researchers, engineers, and designers who can actively tackle such difficult
problems, and faculty members specializing in architecture and social design engineering (civil engineering) conduct
research and education in a wide range of fields. We also offer several curriculums to fulfill the practical experience
requirement for the first-class architect examination.

●Recycling and Eco-Technology
This department aims to develop the human resources necessary to realize a recycling-oriented society under resourceand energy constraints. It consists of six majors: Resource Recycling Engineering, Environmental Chemistry Control,
Environmental Ecological Control, Regional Environment, Environmental Management, and East Asian Cultural
Environment, and provides cross-humanities education by faculty members specializing in the humanities and sciences.
Although this department is established in the Graduate School of Engineering, it is open to a wide range of people,
including working adults and international students, regardless of the faculty or department from which they came from,as a graduate school that integrates the humanities and sciences.
