Field of Study covered in Information Science Course

The Information Science Course systematically learns a wide range of fields from computer hardware to software. The course aims to provide students with a well-balanced research and education in the construction of high-performance computer systems, computer languages, system software, communication, image and speech processing, and basic technologies related to multimedia.

Course Philosophy

Information and Media engineering deal with technologies for efficiently, accurately, and safely transmitting, storing, and processing large amounts of information such as big data and technologies for expressing, exchanging, and processing information in a form that appeals to the five human senses, respectively. Supported on the advance of technologies in both fields, the environment surrounding computers and networks are evolving rapidly and bringing tremendous benefits to our life. The Information Science Course has an important responsibility to link these changes to the creation of a prosperous and secure advanced information society.

The philosophy of the Information Science Course is to develop human resources with a sound mind and systematic basic knowledge to take charge of the development of these technologies. The course conducts research and education from basic to applied fields of information engineering, media engineering, and their fusion from the perspectives of both hardware and software, and nurtures human resources who are willing to take on the challenges of new technologies.
