The Graduate School of Agriculture focuses on nurturing people to adapt to a changing environment and be versatile enough to play a key role in different societies. The program is designed to build professional skills in students for the development of high quality researchers and engineers capable of researching the stable production of bioresources and the uses of biomaterial. In this regard, the graduate school covers three major areas: Bioproduction, Environmental Sciences and Technology, and Bioscience and Biotechnology.
The curriculum consists of a core education subject, a specialized education subject and an expansive education subject. The core education subject promotes the advanced knowledge necessary for flexible thinking and deep insight. The specialized education subject nurtures the ability to apply knowledge as advanced professionals. The expansive education subject equips an independent person with sufficient knowledge to work in scientific research, industries, and businesses. We offer an education program that helps students do extensive research, and thus, develop the ability to work efficiently in scientific research and development.
