Educational and Research Objectives and Three Policies (Department of Chemistry and Biological Science)

POLICY Educational and research objectives, three policies

Educational and research objectives

Department of Chemistry and Biological Science aims to develop talent who can respond to academic developments and changing social needs by equipping students with a broad perspective and flexible thinking skills through a diverse selection of elective courses from the fields of chemistry and life science based on four specialized core subjects: physical chemistry, inorganic/analytical chemistry, organic chemistry, and life science. Emphasis is placed on experiments and practical training, and by conducting graduation research in small classes in the fourth year, emphasis is placed on developing practical problem-solving skills. By implementing this specialized education based on the Christian character education that is a distinctive feature of our university, we aim to not only acquire knowledge and skills, but also to develop members of society with good judgment and a sense of responsibility.

Diploma Policy (Policy for Graduation Certification and Degree Awarding)

■ Knowledge and skills
They have acquired basic knowledge of chemistry and life sciences, as well as specialized knowledge in physical chemistry, inorganic/analytical chemistry, organic chemistry, and life sciences, and have acquired basic literacy in English, mathematics, and information technology.

■Thinking ability, judgment ability, expressive ability
They have acquired the ability to put specialized knowledge into practice based on fundamental knowledge, as well as basic learning and practical skills related to research, presentation skills, and the ability to write papers.

■ Motivation, interest, and attitude
Students have acquired an inquiring mind and the ability to understand basic knowledge and specialized knowledge in the fields of chemistry and life sciences.

They have an interest in difficult problems and the desire to become engineers and researchers who can demonstrate the practical skills to solve them.

Curriculum Policy (Policy for creating and implementing educational courses)

We will develop an educational program that fosters engineers and researchers who can take responsibility for people, society, and nature through education in chemistry and life sciences.
In the first year, basic knowledge is provided through courses that emphasize the acquisition of English as a communication tool, physics and mathematics as the foundations of chemistry and life science, as well as the basics of chemistry and life science themselves, and basic experimental and practical skills.
In the second and third years, students are required to take elective core subjects in the four important areas of chemistry and life sciences: physical chemistry, inorganic and analytical chemistry, organic chemistry, and life science. Specialized experiments related to these four areas are also required. This allows students to acquire specialized knowledge and the ability to put it into practice in an intensive manner.
In the fourth year, as a culmination of this curriculum, students will conduct graduation research and seminars in each laboratory.

Chemistry and life science are broadly divided into four fields: "Physical Chemistry," "Inorganic/Analytical Chemistry," "Organic Chemistry," and "Life Science." Students themselves must carefully consider the path they wish to follow and make a course plan of their own volition and responsibility.
In parallel with this, we offer specialized experimental and practical courses such as Chemistry and Life Science Seminar I (seminar course), Inorganic Chemistry Experiments, Material Analysis Chemistry Experiments, Physical Chemistry Experiments, Organic Chemistry Experiments, Life Science Experiments I, Life Science Experiments II, and Chemical Information Processing Practice. These courses develop the ability to integrate and solve problems through practice.

In graduation research, students are given sufficient instruction to acquire basic research-related learning, practical skills, presentation skills, and paper writing skills, with the aim of nurturing engineers and researchers who can respond to developments in the fields of chemistry and life science and to the changing needs of society.

Admission Policy

■ Knowledge and skills
They have an understanding of the contents of foreign languages, mathematics, chemistry, physics, etc. necessary for studying a specialized field, and have knowledge equivalent to that of a high school graduate.

■Thinking ability, judgment ability, expressive ability
This is a level equivalent to graduating from high school, and students will be able to consider things from multiple perspectives and logically, and express and communicate their own thoughts in an easily understandable manner.

■ Motivation, interest, and attitude
Students should understand the characteristics of the department, have an interest in chemistry and life sciences and related academic fields, and have the desire and interest to contribute to society by utilizing their specialized knowledge and skills.
