Guidelines for Course Study

In graduate school, every student is assigned to a specific department, and a standard course (Japanese) student takes his/her study programs according to the curriculum of each department. However, a student of International Special Course can choose his/her study programs not only in his/her department but also from the curriculum of other departments.

1. Guidelines and rules for Doctoral Degree Program
Subjects required for the Doctoral Degree Program include Seminar (4 credits) and 6 credits (2 x 3) from common lectures and advanced lectures giving a total of 10 credits.

2. Submission of Study Plan
Each student is required to submit his/her study plan, approved by his/her Advisory professor to the Graduate School Student Support Office within 3 weeks after the semester starts. The plan must include all the subjects he/she intends to take both lectures and seminars during the semester.

The subjects can be approved if a student has registered them in his/her study plan at the beginning of the semester.

Addition or withdrawal of the registered subjects may be allowed on written request with the approval of the student's Advisory professor and the professor responsible for the lecture.

A student must notify the Graduate School Student Support Office when he/she should delay submitting his/her study plan by some unavoidable circumstances.


3. Evaluation
A student's achievement on study programs (except seminars or laboratory work) is evaluated through examination or written report at the end of each semester following the grading system such as: 100-80 (excellent), 79-70 (good), 60 and above (pass), and 59 and below (fail).

A student is informed of his/her result of evaluation for each semester by the Graduate School Student Support Office or the Department Office.

Thesis submission, presentation and evaluation (including the final examination) are scheduled by each department.

The schedule for the International Special Course could be specially arranged.

A Japanese language Course is arranged for the foreign students by the International Student Center. A student who wishes to attend the program may get information from the Graduate School Student Support Office.
