The Department of Mechanical and Precision Systems provides a rich learning environment, including the latest 3D-CAD software, one for each student to use, and an automobile maintenance training facility to stimulate students' interest and motivation in manufacturing rooted in practical learning. Through in-depth small-group instruction and easy-to-understand classes, we train engineers who have acquired a wide range of fundamental knowledge and the ability to apply it to meet the needs of the new generation.
カリキュラム
While studying subjects in Humanities, Social Sciences, and Foreign Languages to acquire a broad perspective and culture, students will simultaneously study subjects related to mathematical fundamentals, basic theories of mechanical engineering, design, manufacturing, and control of machines, which are the foundation of engineering. In their graduation research, students will acquire the problem-finding, problem-solving, communication, and written expression skills necessary for engineers.

Grading Criteria
About our GPA System
The intent behind our implementation of a GPA (Grade Point Average) system is to (1) create a unified standard for the campus, (2) have it function as an impartial standard, and (3) have it function as an internationally accepted standard. Our GPA system involves the assessment learning achievements using an objective numerical value called GPA. Additionally, this system generally conforms with the grade assessment systems adopted by universities in the West, and can be used overseas as an index used to certify a student’s academic ability when studying abroad, when going on to graduate school overseas, when finding employment at a non-Japanese companies operating in Japan, and so on.
