Nagoya Institute of Technology will jointly start the Japan-Germany joint doctor program (Cochutel program) with the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) in Germany from October 2019.
The newly developed Japan-Germany Joint Doctoral Program (Cochutel Program) is not limited to research on each elemental technology by a compound-eye course work that is not limited to one specialty, but also has a view to systematization of "manufacturing and manufacturing". An original program to learn "thinking".By practicing fusion research with new ideas that crosses research fields, the "challenge" of doctoral students will be fostered, and by encouraging innovation through field fusion, development of an environment-friendly energy conversion system will be developed. Is expected to progress.
Kochutel is a doctoral dissertation joint research guidance program that is widely adopted by graduate schools in Europe. Participating students have the opportunity to stay in research at the partner university, receive research guidance and dissertation screening jointly by both universities, and are awarded a degree. NS.This program has been adopted as a joint graduate program between Japan and Germany by the German Research Foundation, and FAU's efforts have been adopted by the DFG (International Research Training Group of the German Research Foundation) on the German side as well. It is a program.
Nagoya Institute of Technology and FAU signed an academic exchange agreement in 2009 to deepen academic exchange. In 2013, the Nagoya Institute of Technology Europe Office was established in FAU, and so far, 135 faculty members and 96 students have been dispatched to FAU, and 40 faculty members and 18 students have been accepted from FAU.Both universities have strengths in the field of materials science, and have envisioned the next generation of international joint projects in order to further integrate the fields and promote innovation.
