Course description and aims

In order to improve literacy in materials and chemical engineering, the students are divided into a small group, and subject to research topics that each laboratory in School of Materials and Chemical Engineering is working on. The students will explain the outline of research on materials and chemical engineering and basis of methodology and learn the characteristics and interest of each research field. Also learn about important international situation for the future.

Student learning outcomes

Understand the cutting-edge topics of materials and chemical engineering, and establish the foundation as a technologist.

Keywords

Materials science/engineering (Metals, Inorganic materials, Organic materials), Chemical engineering, Applied chemistry, Polymer science, Enrichment of international consciousness

Competencies that will be developed

Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills Critical thinking skills Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

To foster enrichment of international consciousness we do it in lecture format. In order to touch the methodology of the research of materials and chemical engineering, the students are divided into a small group, visit the laboratory and tackle the given assignments.

Course schedule/Required learning

  Course schedule Required learning
Class 1 Guidance (Prof. Ken Nakajima and Prof. Miyuki Hayashi) Curriculum explanation by the heads of two departments (Dept. Chem. Sci. Eng.: Prof. Kotaro Satoh, Dept. Mater. Sci. Eng.: Prof. Yukio Ouchi) Introduce the curriculum and research content of each department, and explain the relationship with industry and society
Class 2 Enrich the international consciousness from the view of scientists and engineers/Recommendations for Doctoral Programs (Prof. Miyuki Hayashi/Dr. Yoshihiro Tamura, NIPPON STEEL (part-time lecturer)) Enrich the international consciousness from the view of scientists and engineers and broaden their horizons toward entering doctoral programs.
Class 3 Laboratory work trial-1 Dept. Chem. Sci. Eng. (1-3 classes) Laboratory work trial-1 Dept. Mater. Sci. Eng. (4-6 classes) Investigation of a specific topic
Class 4 Laboratory work trial-2 Dept. Chem. Sci. Eng. (1-3 classes) Laboratory work trial-2 Dept. Mater. Sci. Eng. (4-6 classes) Investigation of a specific topic
Class 5 Laboratory work trial-3 Dept. Mater. Sci. Eng. (1-3 classes) Laboratory work trial-3 Dept. Chem. Sci. Eng. (4-6 classes) Investigation of a specific topic

Class 7 Dialogue with the classroom teacher (summary) Summarize literacy in materials science and engineering with the classroom teacher.

Out-of-Class Study Time (Preparation and Review)

To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
