OPTICS AND BIO DESIGN
PROGRAM

The Optics and Bio Design Program encompasses the fields of
optical engineering and molecular agriculture. The program
integrates biological sciences that link genetic information,
invisible to the human eye, with visible life forms – connecting
the analysis of genetic ‘big data’ with agricultural applications.
It incorporates a diverse range of optical technologies as well
as chemistry, linking the fields of biology and optics.

ADVANCED ENGINEERING
SYSTEMS DESIGN PROGRAM

The Advanced Engineering Systems Design Program
encompasses the fields of robotics and Kansei engineering to
address the role of materials, environments, electronics,
information, machinery, building, and urban planning within
regions and societies. It incorporates a range of disciplines
aimed at training highly skilled engineers capable of producing
internationally applicable solutions, ranging from basic
research to social dissemination, as well as uses and
applications in living environments and coexistence with
human beings.

GLOBAL AND REGIONAL
DEVELOPMENT DESIGN PROGRAM

The Global and Regional Development Design Program is
focused on multicultural co-existence and regional design. It
seeks to foster multi-disciplinary and wide-ranging
understandings of the origins and current status of
international cooperation, development, governance, and the
organization of regional societies. This will promote
sustainable development and prosperity in response to
globalization and community building for the realization of
peace.
