Pharmacy, nursing, and information systems continue to be popular

 The characteristic of the entrance examination results in the science field is that the medical field continues to be popular.The medical school seemed to have calmed down a little since the boom, but it has become more popular again, and the popularity of nursing and medical technology continues.Among the medical systems, the pharmacy system of national and public universities has become particularly popular.The Faculty of Pharmacy has been on the decline in popularity over the last few years, but students are paying attention again.It has been seen many times that the medical department has become more popular in the face of major disasters and conflicts.This time, it seems that the number of examinees who are interested in drug discovery such as infectious disease treatment drugs and vaccines has increased.This trend is likely to continue for some time.

 

 

 In addition, the popularity of the Faculty of Filtration continues to be stable. Since the Faculty of Data Science was established at Shiga University in 2017, new faculties of data science have been established almost every year, but the center of the popularity of information systems is the scale of applicants and the large number of departments. It can be said that it is an engineering system from the viewpoint.The Faculty of Engineering is an examination subject and mathematics is essential, but in the case of information systems, there are also engineering faculties that can take the examination up to Mathematics IIB.
Also, if you are an examinee who wants to be an information system but is not aiming for an engineering system, I would like to include the faculties of business administration, commerce, and sociology as options.In business administration and commerce departments, most universities have marketing courses and seminars, but what you learn includes data science.Rather, the consumer orientation and consumer behavior studied in the data science faculty is business administration and commerce itself.In addition, it can be said that you are studying data science because the social research method studied in the faculty of sociology requires statistics.Surprisingly, the same applies to the Department of Management Engineering, Faculty of Engineering.Not many universities have business engineering departments, but major universities such as Aoyama Gakuin University, Chuo University, Hosei University, and Tokyo University of Science have them.
