With the goal of "bridging social divisions through information science," the Osaka University Graduate School of Information Science not only carries out advanced research centered on information science, but also engages in research aimed at realizing a prosperous future society. Every day, we engage in information technology research to solve various social problems and innovative research to create social innovation.
Founded in 2002. This is a strongly future-oriented graduate school that was created by consolidating education and research organizations related to information processing technology and network technology that were previously dispersed among the Graduate School of Engineering, Graduate School of Engineering Science, and Graduate School of Science.
Based on the policy that information science and technology should interact with all academic fields, we conduct research activities centered on the following seven areas.
- Department of Information Science and Mathematics
We conduct research that deepens cutting-edge mathematics and uses this as a foundation to open up new fields of science, including information science. We also aim to bring new trends to mathematics by making full use of the latest computer technology.
- Department of Information Mathematics
Using approaches based on mathematical science and applied physics, we conduct research and education on information processing technology that elucidates natural and social phenomena, and on fundamental theories that serve as the basis for creating new industries through the fusion of natural and social sciences. .
- Computer Science Major
Focusing on both theory and application of information science, we pursue social contributions through academic inquiry. We develop computer science experts who can address technical issues in various fields of society and contribute to a sustainable society.
- Department of Information Systems Engineering
By integrating various technologies from hardware to software and machine learning, we conduct research to realize information systems that serve as the foundation of an information society.
- Department of Information Network Science
This is the best major in Japan where you can research a wide range of innovative fundamental and applied technologies from the perspective of information networks, from B5G/6G/IoT to smart cities/XR (augmented reality/virtual reality). Another feature is that we have strong connections with industry.
- Multimedia Engineering Major
Pursuing theory and creating social value in technical areas that manage and utilize diverse multimedia data (data engineering, security, big data, computer vision, brain science, computational social science/high performance computing, avatars/robot information distribution infrastructure) We aim to
- Department of Bioinformatics
Developing researchers and engineers who will play leading roles in the interdisciplinary field spanning both information engineering and medicine/biology by organically integrating cutting-edge knowledge of information engineering and basic knowledge of biology. The purpose is
