Department of Department of Applied Biological Science curriculum and Admissions
We will introduce the curriculum of the Department of Department of Applied Biological Science Faculty of Agriculture.
Curriculum policy
In the first and second years, students take liberal arts subjects, basic natural science subjects, and basic departmental specialized subjects to acquire a broad and rich education while also cultivating the basic skills for specialized education.
This department places special emphasis on practical experiments, with students starting with basic experiments in the second semester of their first year, followed by specialized departmental experiments in the second semester of their second year. In the second semester of their second year and the first semester of their third year, afternoons are mainly spent conducting student experiments.
Departmental specialized subjects change from basic to specialized subjects from the first to third year, and the number of hours gradually increases.
In addition, several "special lectures" are held, providing opportunities for students to acquire the latest information and a wide range of knowledge related to their specialization.
In the fourth year, students will be assigned to one of three courses - Molecular Biochemistry, Biofunctional Chemistry, or Bioregulation - based on the interests they have developed through their studies up to the third year, where they will undertake research, write a paper, and present it.

Diploma policy
A. Students have acquired broad knowledge and culture that will serve as the foundation for tackling issues in applied biological sciences and related fields, and have acquired flexible thinking skills.
B. Students are to systematically study specialized fields ranging from the basics to the cutting edge of applied biological sciences and related sciences in order to elucidate the life phenomena of living organisms, the interactions and coexistence patterns between individual organisms, and contribute to the sustainable development of humanity.
C. Students will have learned experimental techniques based on chemistry and biology that are essential in the field of applied biological sciences, and will have acquired the analytical and analytical skills necessary to understand a range of life phenomena and biological functions, from molecules, cells, and individuals to the activities and interactions of biological communities.
D. The student is expected to contribute to the development of bioscience, biotechnology, food, life science, plant protection, etc. through research, while also learning the presentation techniques necessary to disseminate research results and communication techniques necessary to interact with a variety of people, including those from different cultures, and to contribute to society with a high level of ethics.
