Department of Materials Science and Technology , Niigata
University,

Curriculum map

We have more courses on the fundamental subjects of mathematics, physics, and chemistry than ordinary engineering departments as we consider this fundamental knowledge indispensable to creating completely new technologies. We also provide many opportunities for studying electronics, machinery, and information processing as well as taking experimental courses with many topics.
