From April, Shibaura Institute of Technology will start a full-scale international program at the Faculty of Systems Science and Engineering, which requires study abroad for more than half a year and submission of a graduation thesis in English.This course aims to develop human resources with international communication skills, with a course that allows you to change affiliations after enrollment up to 4% of new students.
Shibaura Institute of Technology was the only private science and engineering university to be selected for the "Top Global University Project" in 2014, and challenged to build a "SHIBAURA model" that fosters the development of science and engineering human resources who can play an active role in the world with 10 years of support. There is.This program was also launched as part of that.
The international program started in 2017 in 3 departments of the Faculty of Systems Science and Engineering, and currently 36 people belong to it, but this will be expanded to all 4 departments from April.
Of the 124 credits required for graduation, 4 credits, which is equivalent to more than a quarter, will be taken in English.
This includes earning credits for engineering English training held at partner universities overseas during the summer vacation of the first year, and study programming with local students.
In the third year, I will study abroad for more than half a year before and after.The buddy system that supports international students from overseas will also be united as a class so that study abroad can be simulated from the standpoint of acceptance.
After conducting research activities for one year in the laboratory assigned to the fourth year, it is essential to submit and present the graduation thesis in English.
