Integrated Natural Sciences Course
Features
Natural sciences have developed by pushing the boundaries of each field and fusing with other fields. In the Integrated Natural Science Course, you can learn the fundamentals of each field broadly and study a specialized field while maintaining an interdisciplinary perspective that transcends fields. Why not develop a broad foundation in natural sciences and play an active role in new fields of the 21st century?
About Integrated Natural Sciences Course
The basic science subjects up to high school are divided into five categories: physics, chemistry, biology, earth science, and mathematics. However, high school science is often elective, and few students take all of these subjects. It is not easy to choose a specialty that will last into the future with only this limited learning experience. In the Integrated Natural Science Courses, students can learn the basics of each field of science broadly and carefully select their own specialty while taking advantage of the new university experience. In addition, by learning the basics of science broadly, students can deepen their knowledge and experience in their specialty while maintaining an interdisciplinary perspective.
The Integrated Natural Science Courses has four educational programs: Integrated Science P, Integrated Science C, Integrated Science B, and Integrated Science E. In the first year, students study a wide range of specialized foundational subjects while focusing on two or three specialized fields. In the second year, students select their specialized field and take specialized subjects in the Physics course in the Integrated Science P program, the Chemistry course in the Integrated Science C program, the Biological Science course in the Integrated Science B program, and the Earth Environmental Science course in the Integrated Science E program. In the fourth year, students are assigned to a laboratory in their respective course and conduct their graduation research.
