The University of Yamanashi's Faculty of Engineering has decided to reorganize its current seven departments into one department with multiple courses in preparation for its 2024th anniversary in 100.The installation report submitted to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has been accepted, and implementation will begin in 7.There will be a slot for women and a slot for general engineering that allows students to decide on their specialty after enrolling.

 According to the University of Yamanashi, the current seven departments - Department of Mechanical Engineering, Department of Mechatronics Engineering, Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Department of Computer Engineering, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Department of Applied Chemistry, and Department of Advanced Materials Science and Engineering - will be combined into the Department of Engineering, and will be divided into three departments: Clean Energy Chemistry, Applied Chemistry, and Civil Engineering. Seven courses will be established within the Department of Engineering: Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, and Electrical and Electronic Engineering.There will be no change in the overall enrollment capacity of the Faculty of Engineering, which is 7 students.

 Among these, the number of students in the computer science and engineering course in the information field will be significantly increased starting from the second year, and the clean energy chemistry course will be created by leveraging Japan's leading research achievements in fuel cells and other fields that the University of Yamanashi has accumulated to date. .

 The entrance exam will be conducted in one batch, and successful applicants will be determined based on their course preferences.There will be a general engineering slot where you will decide your specialty after admission.

 The format of the entrance exam will also change.In addition to the current selection categories, we will implement a new "School Recommendation Selection I" that does not require a common university entrance test, and will allow applicants who have graduated from high schools in Japan or are expected to graduate in March 6 to take the exam up to 3 times. Provide opportunities.In addition, there will be two female slots for each course in ``School Recommendation Selection I''.``Biology'' will now be available for selection in all selections that use the common university entrance test (Comprehensive Selection II, General Selection (First Semester, Second Semester)).

 The Faculty of Engineering at the University of Yamanashi opened in 1924 during the Taisho era as the Yamanashi Higher Technical School. With the university celebrating its 2024th anniversary in 100, plans were being made to reorganize the department with the aim of cultivating the human resources needed by industry.
