Rural Environmental and Symbiotic Science

Outline of Chair

Research Fields

1. For the purpose of fostering advanced but fundamental scholarship and profound expert
   knowledge, this seminar will be held to carry out exercises concerning the field directly
   related to the tasks for study.
2. In order to make students participate in seminars with attendance of teaching staff and
   students of the different but related major fields of study invited from the other chairs or other
   fields so that respective own research can be developed to the other fields other than the
   particular major field, this seminar will be held to foster abilities to extend to develop or
   challenge to the other field.
3. Under the Chief Guidance Teaching Staff and Vise-Guidance Teaching Staffs, to actively
   make research on the theme of study which is decided through discussion with the Chief
   Guidance Teaching Staff and to make publication (doctoral thesis).
4. Students may be trained practically in any public agency and business enterprise if effectiveness
   on education is recognized.
