Unique Programs of StudyAdvanced Leading Graduate ProgramCultivation of future global leaders in the fiber renaissanceBy uniting Shinshu University’s Interdisciplinary Graduate Schools of Science and Technology this five-year program represents an entirely new approach to cultivating future leaders in the Textile and Fiber Engineering fields.Students will acquire not only special knowledge and applied skills in fiber sciences but also a broader perspective on the relationships amongst humans and fiber technologies. Valuable research skills will be learned through interdisciplinary and cross-industry connections, and management skill training will allow students to become future project leaders in commercialization and operations studies. We want our students to lead the fiber technology revolution and to be at the forefront of solving real-world fiber problems. We offer both the curriculum and the support system to make that happen. We have the door to your future in the fiber elite.Five-Year Graduate Degree ProgramGlobal Leaders for a Sustainable SocietyWe provide a five-year graduate degree program combined master’s and doctoral programs (the Graduate School of Science and Technology, the Graduate School of Agriculture, and the Interdisciplinary Graduate School of Science and Technology). This program consists of three courses such as Sustainable Energy, Sustainable Food, and Sustainable Water. The objective of the program is to educate graduate students to be future global leaders with wide range of practical knowledge and skills not limited to areas of expertise, abilities of research and development on advanced technologies, and knowledge on green MOT (management of Technology).MEXT Program for Promoting Inter-University Collaborative EducationShinshu University, University of Fukui and the Kyoto Institute of Technology, all of which have graduate school majors in fiber/textile engineering science available, have formed a collaboration and integrated their educational and research resources into thereby forming a fiber research university organization, and have implemented this program in cultivating engineers and researchers with consistent levels of knowledge from the basics through to applications in the same field, along with global perspective and leadership qualities. Since 2013 each graduate school has offered a common Fiber/Textile Engineering Course into which five students are recruited per university each year. In addition to unique organization of fiber research Universities, our active collaborations with a support of fiber industry and related academic association will offer students a wide variety of unique core subject lectures. The course students are expected to become someone to succeed in the fiber/textile field globally with strong communication skills and a scientific analytical ability. The students are expected also master the knowledge and skills in the fiber/textile field. Toward the Standardization of Ethics Required for Researchers and the Education Program: CITI Japan ProjectSix universities centered around Shinshu University (Tokyo Medical and Dental University, Fukushima Medical University, Kitasato University, Sophia University, and the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University) have been proceeding with a program to promote inter-university collaborative education, or the “Standardization and Nationwide Implementation of Responsible Conduct of Research Education – CITI Japan Project” (MEXT), since 2012. Scientific activities are essential to human society in continuing to sustain and develop our future. However, as the recent rise in being a hot topic of conversation proves, research misconducts can have a derogatory effect on society and the research itself. The cultivation of researchers with an appropriate sense of ethics is therefore very much necessary. In response to that social demand and to increase the level of ethics of researchers, we have been producing and disseminating educational materials concerning research ethics via e-Learning within this project. As of March 31, 2014, 73,427 people at 325 universities and research institutions had been exposed to the educational materials.Unique Programs of Study48
