Educational Goals of Graduate School of Science and Engineering
Our university aims to nurture individuals who use their abilities as conscience dictates, and for this purpose wehave three principles in our educational philosophy: Christian principles, liberalism, and internationalism. Based onthese educational goals, our graduate school aims not only to provide individuals with basic and applied theories tobecome pillars of science and engineering but also to nurture them to be “the nation’s conscience,” contributing tosociety with knowledge and virtue. We also aim to cultivate creative engineers and researchers with diverse academic
skills and advanced expert knowledge in their majors who can cope with the innovation of science technology and playleading roles in the field.
The Master's Program is designed to equip students with broad horizons and advanced knowledge, and to cultivate
the abilities necessary to engage in highly-specialized occupations that require research capabilities in specialized
fields and advanced expertise. The Doctoral Program is designed to equip students with advanced researchcapabilities required to conduct independent research activities in their majored fields, as well as rich knowledge tosupport such activities.
The Graduate School of Science and Engineering consists of five majors; Information and Computer Science,
Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Applied Chemistry, and Science of Environment andMathematical Modeling. The aims of education and research in each major and the guidelines of our education are as
follows.

GPA (Grade Point Average) System
Doshisha University has been adopting the GPA system university-wide since 2004.
Graduate subjects are graded in 7 levels (A+, A, B+, B, C+, C, F). Each level is assignedwith a Grade Point ranging from 4.5～0.0. with which the Grade Point Average per credit
is calculated.

SatisfactoryC

AdequateF

0.0

FailureSubjects that are not covered by the above system are graded as PAS (pass), FAL (fail),
TFC (approved), PEN (pending) and CNT (continued).
GPA is calculated by firstly converting the grades for all the courses graded in the A+ ～ Frange to grade points, and calculating the weighted average based on the number ofcredits. The formula to calculate GPA is（【A+】×4.5+【A】×4.0+【B+】×3.5+【B】×3.0+【C+】×2.5+【C】×2.0+【F】×0.0）
Cumulative GPA =（【A+】+【A】+【B+】+【B】+【C+】+【C】+【F】）(A+ to F indicates the respective total numbers of credits for courses graded A+ to F)

DegreeFor the department of Applied Chemistry and Science of Environmental and Mathematical
Modeling, the name of degree is to be determined "Master of Science" or "Master of Sciencein Engineering" under the guidance of students' supervisor.

Ⅱ Issuance of Storm Warning (Not Heavy Rain Warning)•

If a typhoon warning or any type of emergency warning is issued for any of theprefectural forecast area, sub-prefecture region 1, region comprising several
municipalities or sub-prefecture region 2 in the table under “1. Areas Covered by
the Warning,” classes/final examinations scheduled for the day will be cancelled,
starting from the next period after the issuance of the warning.

•

For classes/final examinations that have already started or about to start at thetime of the issuance of the warning, the university will decide whether or not tocancel them with due consideration of the level of urgency of the warning.

•

An emergency warning is issued when the area concerned is in very dangerous
situation. Students staying in the warned areas must immediately take necessary
actions to protect themselves, regardless of the type of emergency warning.
However, those who are on campus at the time of the issuance of the emergency
warning should act as instructed by the university. Those who are at home or
during commuting in an area where the emergency warning is issued should dowhat they consider is best to protect themselves.

•

If the warning is withdrawn and safety is confirmed, the rest of the classes for the
day will be held according to “2.Time of withdrawal of warning and classes/final
examinations start time,” except for cases where the university makes a separate
announcement depending on the situation.
