[Outline]
Students will learn about basic topics for researching service science, a promising knowledge system for supporting service systems as a new growth framework conducive to next-generation society and economics. Students are trained to be successful in this new era.
[Goals]
The subfields relevant to service science are branching out as we move further towards a service economy. These subfields include problem solving and innovation for social service systems such as energy, the environment, traffic, medicine, and welfare, growth of the next generation of the information industry, creating new services and businesses for a networked society, R&D strategies for and implementation of services for the manufacturing industry, and increased productivity and quality of the service industry.
Students are expected to study the following topics.
-Emergence of Service Science
-Nature of Service
-Trend of Digital Economy
-Logic of ICT Transformation
