Learning in growing fields
that create future society
Our society’s future is uncertain due to complex issues such as globalization in the economy and industry, low birth rate, aging population, decreasing labor force, natural disasters, and environmental problems. There is a need for innovative solutions in all of these areas.
To meet these social needs, students in the Department of Science and Technology acquire design skills for characterizing and solving problems.
They also learn basic skills and knowledge of software and hardware in growing fields such as AI, IoT, and robotics. This fosters the development of professional engineers who create sustainable global future.

Curriculum and learning environment based on CDIO Standard, world-standard in engineering education
What is CDIO?
CDIO stands for "Conceive", "Design", "Implement", and "Operate". It is a framework for engineering education that was devised and proposed by Massachusetts Institute of Technology and three Swedish universities. Currently, more than 130 higher education institutions have joined in CDIO, including Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Stanford University, the University of Liverpool, the University of Sydney, National University of Singapore, and other world-famous schools around the world. ICT is also a member of CDIO. With educational systems and environments based on the CDIO Standard, ICT provides practical and systematic education for students to learn the skills required for global engineers.
STEAM Education
"STEM Education" is an education model for science and technology create in the USA in the 2000s. It integrates the study of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Lately, "STEAM Education" with the addition of the arts is gathering attention.
STEM Education in English is one of our foundations for education here at ICT. The knowledge learned in these classes will be utilized in Engineering Design education and extracurricular activities. This promotes better understanding of how the knowledge and skills are used in practice.
