Department of Environmental and Materials Engineering
|
In recent years, more and more people are becoming concerned with environmental issues such as "re-circulating" and being environmentally "clean". Many important modern environmental solutions depend on technology, which in turn depends on materials engineering. This department aims to teach materials science in harmony with a strong emphasis on the environment and to develop newly designed environmentally-friendly materials that we call "e -materials". The research fields we study and research cover a wide spectrum of materials science, ranging from atomic level analysis to innovative processing suitable for mass production techniques.
We have established two professional education programs. In cooperation with our graduate school, local industries and communities, many students from both our Ceramics Program and Materials Function Program have become competent engineers and scientists.

This program is one of the most prominent academic centers assisting and working closely with Japanese ceramic industries. We conduct effective education and research on the engineering of fine ceramics such as functional ceramics, electrical ceramics, optical ceramics, bio-ceramics, high-temperature structural ceramics, as well as the related processing and evaluation techniques.

The emphasis in undergraduate teaching is always on the underlying principles which are applicable to the whole range of engineering materials. The Program is structured to take materials research forward into the new century with a rapidly growing commitment to the fields of automobile engineering, solid state electronics, energy conversion, potential sensing and materials recycling.
