Curriculum Policy

We provide a basic education in mathematics and physics, which are disciplines that explore the logic and laws necessary to understand natural and social phenomena, and develop the ability to solve problems based on scientific knowledge. From that perspective, the curriculum policy for each course is defined as follows.

Mathematical Science Course

• Mathematical knowledge helps in developing skills to analyze problems in natural/social science and technology, grasp them in mathematical terms, and find out essential laws lying behind them.
• The course helps develop the ability to resolve challenges mathematically and scientifically, by taking advantage of the knowledge of algebra, geometry, analysis, and applied mathematics.
• The course helps cultivate a habit to continue learning and working towards a solution to scientific/technical and social issues, with intellectually inquiring minds and free thinking.

Materials Physics and Astrophysics Course

• The ability to analyze problems in sciences, technology and society in order to find their essence will be cultivated.
• The ability to work on academic challenges and real problems in international and regional societies will be developed, based on an accumulated knowledge of physics.
• The ability to realize technological innovation, as engineers and researchers in the field of physics, will be developed.
• This course will also cultivate an attitude for continued learning towards problem solving with free and inquiring minds in academics and society.

Applied Computational Science Course

• The ability to deepen insight into nature and society, analyze problems, and determine issues by utilizing specialized knowledge related to computational science is cultivated through this course.
• The ability to apply specialized knowledge mainly related to computational science in problems and issues faced by the international/regional society is cultivated through this course.
• TThe ability to continue acquiring knowledge and skills needed to solve scientific/technical and social issues by intellectually inquiring minds and free thinking is cultivated through this course.
