Class flow

This lecture is an omnibus format by six faculty teachers and introduces the latest research topics in Materials and Chemical Engineering as an example.

Course schedule/Required learning

  Course schedule Required learning
Class 1 Molecular design and synthesis in organic and polymeric materials Learn the foundation and application to advanced researches of organic and polymeric materials
Class 2 Fuel cells and their constituent materials Learn the structure of automotive fuel cells and their constituent materials, and understand the importance of material research
Class 3 Development of inorganic materials using supercomputer Current development of inorganic materials using state-of-the-art supercomputers will be discussed, alongside "materials informatics", which is a new paradigm of materials science that deploys theoretical calculation and artificial intelligence technology.
