Innovating Together for Today and Tomorrow

School ofInterdisciplinary Scienceand Innovation
2022-2023

Following the Links in the Chainof Knowledge
The spread of infectious diseases on a global scale. Economic disparities and poverty. The loss of the naturalenvironment and the scramble for energy resources. Conﬂicts between globalism on the one hand and religion andethnicity on the other.

As most of the problems that we face right now have been spawned by the complex interplay of a variety of factors,
it is diﬃcult to resolve them using the perspectives of a single discipline.

We seek to follow the links in the chain of knowledge across the boundaries between disciplines and explore ways ofsolving problems from multiple viewpoints, perspectives, and standpoints.

Experiencing this style of learning and this way of taking action is essential to addressing the issues that we face
now or could face in the future.

Kyushu University School of Interdisciplinary Science and Innovation was created to foster a ﬂexible stance of

welcoming and tapping into diversity and to cultivate wide-ranging knowledge and advanced communication skills.

Area of Expertise : History of Political Thought

School of Interdisciplinary Science and Innovation was founded as a new
type of undergraduate school in April 2018. It may be diﬃcult to imagine
what one would be studying from the name alone.
ISI aims to recreate undergraduate education. We want each of our students
to choose problems from around the world and work at ﬁnding solutions tothem, using skills learned from multiple ﬁelds, breaking down the walls
between the arts and sciences.
Our goal is to cultivate individuals to be powerful and intelligent, who canwork on the various complex problems faced by humankind in our
ever-changing world.
Universities in Japan are often criticized for being narrow-minded andstaying “stuck in their octopus-pot” - that is, stuck in their own specialized
area of study, instead of associating with people from other academic ﬁelds.
This situation occurs because typical universities have various schools andfaculties for speciﬁc academic ﬁelds, and those faculties are further divided
into more speciﬁc majors and courses. Most times students have no idea
what their peers in other majors are studying.
At the same time, each ﬁeld of study is too wide and too deep to masterseveral of them at once, and it is highly competitive internationally. Therefore,
we can say that there are good reasons why students pursue their studies in
speciﬁc singular ﬁelds. Surely there are treasures in the “octopus pots.”

EconomyNonetheless, we live in the time when things are constantly changing. Whatonce was thought of as two separated ﬁelds may suddenly become tightly
knit together by the advancement of human-made high technology and newsocial systems. Work which we have assumed could only be done byhumans can suddenly be replaced by machines.

Today, we canʼt simply cling to the traditional disciplines. Instead, students
need to go beyond them according to each personʼs awareness of issues andunderstandings of problems, to discover new knowledge and values in new
ﬁelds, forged by creative intertwining of multiple ﬁelds.
In order to solve problem in such new ﬁelds, ISI aspires to excel providing
the setting where students can gain the knowledge, skills and wisdom of“interdisciplinary science and innovation,” which associates diﬀerent
disciplines and creates the knowledge and wisdom needed for todayʼs
problem-solving.
To this end, with a staﬀ of 52 full-time faculty members and 30 course
lecturers (as of July 2022) covering a diverse array of specialist ﬁelds
spanning the humanities and science, we have put in place an educational
environment that enables us to develop links between diverse disciplines in
the pursuit of solutions to problems, while leveraging the educational
resources of Kyushu University.
ISI is a unique undergraduate school where each student accomplishes theirprojects individually, beyond the existing framework of departments andfaculties. Would you like to join us? We are looking forward to seeing thechallenges you make for yourself.

Areas : The New Forums for Learning

Aiming to create knowledge and values in our constantly changing society, we have identiﬁed four areas of global and humanchallenges that go beyond conventional academic disciplines. We have a curriculum for each area that will developinterdisciplinary skills and responses to issues relating to globalization, and provide learning opportunities based on a reorganized
academic framework.

Students will learn about the emergence andevolution of life, human thought, cognition, anddecision mechanisms through the prism of biology,
cognitive science, and neuroscience.

Students will learn about language mechanisms incommunication, prehistoric societies, multicultural
coexistence, welfare in society, and religious views
through the prism of sociology, cultural anthropology,
and communication studies.

Humans and Life

Crossing Study Areas

Students will study interdisciplinary courses that serve as a foundation
for the four areas for learning and developing reﬂectiveness. For example,
studying such courses as Design Thinking, Data Science, Global Ethics
and Global History will provide the knowledge and abilities that students
need to tackle challenges and solve problems.

Student Interview
Q1 Why did you choose ISI?

I have a dream to be the one who pursues and achieves a gender-equal world. Since high school,
I have always been intrigued by gender studied. As such, I have been cultivating my understandingby continuously presenting research and obtaining valuable feedback at Cambridge and Oxford
University. Throughout the process, it was riveting to apprehend how the issue is relevant to a
substantial number of factors such as social norms, educations, politics, sex diﬀerence, decision
making, stereotypes, religions, and laws. I am here, at the School of Interdisciplinary Science andInnovation, to develop a critical eye by receiving an education that is not limited to classiﬁed
existent study areas but in crossed various ones.

Q2 What were the good things about being admitted to ISI?

The School of Interdisciplinary Science and Innovation provides students with the opportunity tosigniﬁcantly improve their English proﬁciency, and simultaneously deepen their academic andpersonal understanding. Students take numerous classes in English from the ﬁrst year and learn
while collaborating with international students from all over the globe. I could only say "Hello" whenI entered the university, but now I ﬂuently speak and use English, both in and out of the school. I
have been appointed as a project leader, a teaching assistant, and can handle 50-page reading
homework assignments every week without any diﬃculty. I also conduct my research in English
and am constantly improving my expertise and language skills in order to apply to graduate schools
abroad. In addition, the school has a tutor system, in which one faculty member is assigned to each
student to support his or her university life. Besides course consultation, students can also receive
advice on their careers and research. Needless to say, faculty members and students have an
extremely close-knit relationship. When I was stuck, I was able to verbalize my concerns about mycareer and academics to my tutors. They would never fail to give me valuable advice, which in turnhelped me understand myself and establish ﬁrm goals to keep moving forward. Not only do
students here have rich backgrounds, they are interested in a wide variety of academic ﬁelds,
persistently striving to achieve their dreams, and providing each other with interesting perspectives
and motivation on a daily basis. In this way, the School of Interdisciplinary Science and Innovationoﬀers "stimulation and support that will greatly enhance your abilities" that cannot be found inother faculties. I will keep working hard to ensure self-improvement, and not take it for granted, butcherishing it.

IDEISHI Kotomi
Konan Senior High School(Kagoshima), April 2020 Enrollment

Q3 What is your theme for DP and what is your dream?

I aspire to continue my studies at Master's and Doctoral degrees at graduate schools abroad inorder to pursue my dream of becoming a specialist in Gender Studies. With the work experience I
have garnered; I would like to join the "Oﬃce of the Focal Point for Women" in the UN system
within UNWOMEN. There, I will be involved in developing international standards, planning laws,
policies, and programs to achieve a truly gender-equal world.

Q1 Why did you choose ISI?

Maybe many students chose and entered to ISI because they have some thoughts, “I want to study about
it!” or “I want to resolve this social problem!”, and you high school students who is reading this content maybe
also applicable of it. However, I am diﬀerent from them.
When I was a high school student and want to study for the Faculty of Economics, itʼs my homeroom teacher
that told me about Faculty of ISI, in Kyushu University. At that time, I was lost of my decision even The National
Center Test had ﬁnished because I donʼt know my decision is right for me. When I was worried, my teacher
shows me the pamphlet of ISI. I looked it, and this pamphlet said that characteristics of ISI are what students
can improve their own style to study aggressively, the way of learning from wider multi viewpoints, and theplace of resolving the social problem. While I read it, I was interested in this facultyʼs novelty, and I felt I could
do study freely here. I might be attracted the sells point of ISI that students could express myself by my style.
I want to thank to my teacher who invited this faculty.

Q2 What were the good things about being admitted to ISI?

I have some good points that I am studying here, but there are two big points when I summarize them.
Firstly, our everyday life changes the chance to learn. Literally, it is not only the time on your classroom andthe time to do your homework, but also, we can learn by various situations, such as the time to live in everyday
life, to stay with your friends, and so on. In this faculty, we try to ﬁnd some social problems and explore it. So,
you can study many things and become interesting if you live in your everyday life with thinking various things.
Actually, I noticed an awareness problem in my research theme when I was watching TV in my spare time.
What you want to study may have already existed in your everyday life you donʼt care.
Secondly, I could greet many students who have many thoughts and backgrounds. I think it is the best pointof ISI. All students are unrelated to whether you are “liberal” or “science”, so there are many students who are
diﬀerent from their major, their specialty subjects, and their own research theme. There is no student who issimilar to you. Making chances and talking with them are more stimulating than you imagine. Hearing theirstories and talking about it cannot only input their thought in your thought, but also can remember and checkyour idea and can see your station in your process of research theme. I realize I am greatly mature through that
communication.

Q3 What is your theme for DP and what is your dream?

I am planning my research theme combining international politics and the theory of media now. I found thistheme from an occasion which I doubt the ideal occasion of mass medium when I watched TV. It is still the earlystage, but I want to think about international politic which is seriously now, from the viewpoint of media.
I donʼt have clearly and concretely goal or job like “I want to be OO!!” However, I want to be a person or to
get a job that I can make use of more people as well as possible through my work and achievement. It is a very
ambiguous goal to say bravely, but it maybe the faculty of ISI that gives me clearly image in the future.
Dear many students who are interested in ISI or are reading this content, you can meet many unique people
who you have never met beyond your image. “I have to some aware of social problem.” “I should learn
communication or English skill.” No problem, your worrying is no need. While I have studied here for two years,
this faculty is seeking some students who want to be mature, to ﬁnd their aim, and to try hard to achieve them.
You students are certainly hard because of COVID-19, studying, and more, but I want you to do the best and tobe yourself. Good luck!

Q1 Why did you choose ISI?

I encouraged myself to choose ISI was purely because I could not ﬁnd any other faculty like ISI,
especially in my country. Having the freedom to choose what you want to do even in the middle ofyour university journey is something that I did not expect to be a very humbling experience. Also,
I always thought that being surrounded by interesting people with diﬀerent sets of motivation andbackground would broaden my horizon and strengthening my knowledge here in my university life.
Moreover, knowing that the areas of ISI are speciﬁcally made to be an ʻissue-basedʼ program, I wasamazed by the opportunity to make my own study and research being impactful to the society
directly.

Q2 What were the good things about being admitted to ISI?

Out of everything that I would appreciate about this faculty, I think it is the people. The faculty
and the staﬀs are the people that I believe will always have my back and stand there for any kindof support for me. Especially, as an international student, there were so many aspects of campus
life in Japan that was confusing and absolutely unfamiliar to me, however, all the professors andthe staﬀs are always positive and so helpful to me, speciﬁcally my academical journey. The othergood thing are my friends, I thought that having diﬀerent interest would cause such division and anegative output to my study, but apparently it turned out be these doors of opportunity to expand
my skill and knowledge. It is a truly humbling experience to learn about peopleʼs dream and visionand how everyone utilizes ISI to the maximum capacity to help them reach their dream.

Q3 What is your theme for DP and what is your dream?

Dhiva Althaf Pratama
SMA Negeri Unggulan M.H. Thamrin Jakarta, Indonesia, October 2020 Enrollment

The theme of my Degree Project is about [Coral Reef Environments] and the focus is to obtainnecessary information or parameters to conduct protection of coral reef ecosystems in southern
islands of Japan. By identifying the geomorphological changes and the spatial analysis I hope that
I could learn and develop important points to build a thorough legislation to protect the coastal
environments. This theme sparked an idea for me to make better movements for climate change
in a signiﬁcant manner. Objectively, being able to map and understand a designated area that could
have anthropological activities and a high-level biodiversity area would be impactful for the social
economy and the education of coastal communities that I hope it could help more research.

Q1 Why did you choose ISI?

Possessing a multiplicity of perspectives to understand the prevalent social issues are necessary;hence, the School of Interdisciplinary Science and Innovation (ISI) allows the integration of bothnatural and human science classes. That is, transcending the boundaries of the specialized ﬁelds andaddressing the issues multifacetedly. After completing the KIKAN education, I have acquired thefoundational knowledge and skills required for problem-solving, which enabled me to discover a
suitable specialized course. The student could choose from the four areas, through which I haveselected “People and Society;” more importantly, however, it is not limited to taking courses within thechosen area as the School of ISI encourages the students to take cross-area courses. Furthermore, as
the facultyʼs name suggests, the School of ISI accentuates the “interdisciplinary” aspect; therefore, I
can learn beyond the selected area and the specialized course. Accordingly, I could achieve my desire
to be a social innovator who can discover solutions to social issues on a local and global scale.

Q2 What were the good things about being admitted to ISI?

Community. Since the classes are quite compact, consisting of 20-30 students, the relationshipbetween students and professors is relatively close. Whenever there are problems in terms ofacademics or campus life, the professors accommodate the students in their best interests.
Additionally, the ISI oﬃce also supports the students with their concerns and questions.
The professors encourage the students to share ideas through group/class discussions; thus,interactions are inevitable. Besides focusing on self-expression, the students could expand on theirown perspectives with the other students since the classes are more of an investigative approach,where students ﬁrst-handedly and proactively raise questions. Henceforth, the ISI students are rather
creative and innovative whenever proposing solutions and, therefore, strive to achieve their DP.

Q3 What is your theme for DP and what is your dream?

With globalization advancing at an unprecedented rate, an increasing number of individuals havebeen situating cross-culturally, resulting in many children inhabiting cross-national lives; frequently
conceptualized as “Third Culture Kid” (TCK). As a result of children spending most of theirsigniﬁcant formative years in countries besides their parentʼs origin or the childrenʼs national
background, TCKs often feel rootlessness. As a half Japanese/Filipino growing up in China, I
consider myself a TCK. Identity issues are not simply an individual problem, which could be solved
alone, but rather a global phenomenon that requires attention; hence my research is to understandidentity further. To delve into the research topic, I am currently studying “Narrative Therapy andNarrative Analysis” in Clinical Pedagogy Graduate Seminar under the Graduate School of
Human-Environment Studies. Using the individualʼs personal narratives, I hope to become amultilingual counselor.
