Department of Life and Materials Engineering

This department deals with materials and their reactions from viewpoints of chemistry and biochemistry. We train technical experts and researchers with wide knowledge. This department consists of three programs as follows.


Molecular Chemistry Program
Through the understanding of the relations between structures and functions of natural products and of organic, students can obtain deep knowledge and skills for chemical syntheses, analyses of new compounds or reactions, and process designing.
Key Words
Organic Synthesis, Chemical Plant, Kinetics, Reaction Mechanism, Computational Chemistry

Biological Chemistry Program
The program deals with proteins, lipids, nucleic acids etc. that are important in organisms. Student study the structure-function relationships in vivo reactions to find essentials of protein functionalities, and to creating new systems with these functionalities.
Key Words
Protein, Enzyme Design, Metalloenzyme, Photoelectronics, Bioengineering

Biomaterials Program
This program deals with the development of novel polymer materials and products that support the human health and safety based on learning from the function and material production mechanism of the living system. The fruits of these studies are applicable for industrial and medical use.
Key Words
Biomaterials, Functional Polymers, Environmentally-Friendly Polymers, Self-Organization
