Degree Program System (From April 2020)

From April 2020, the University of Tsukuba reorganized all graduate school education into a degree program system.

This is the first reform in Japan that has shifted all graduate schools to a degree program system, where we structured degree programs across traditional organizational boundaries.
We will develop highly diverse human resources who can respond to the complex needs of rapidly changing modern society.

Professors who were previously in charge of only one major can now collaborate on other programs, and students can study their fields from a wider perspective.

The Graduate School of Pure and Applied Sciences was reorganized into the Degree Programs in Pure and Applied Sciences with five master’s and five doctoral degree programs:

・Master’s/Doctoral Programs in Mathematics
・Master’s/Doctoral Programs in Physics
・Master’s/Doctoral Programs in Chemistry
・Master’s Program in Engineering Sciences
 -Subprogram in Applied Physics
 -Subprogram in Materials Science
・Doctoral Program in Engineering Sciences
 -Subprogram in Applied Physics
 -Subprogram in Materials Science
 -Subprogram in Materials Science and Engineering
・Master’s/Doctoral Programs in International Materials Innovation
