Department of Applied Biological Science
| Introduction and Scope |
| |
The research field of Applied Biological Science is resolving problems on
Health, Food and Environment. Based on this starting point, the course in the
Department has been shifted to promote a new concept of "Green Science". This
concept aims to develop the harmony between human being and global environments
using limitless potentials of the earth and plants. To put it concrete, three
projects, production of useful compounds from microorganisms and plants for
human health and medication, clean up of a polluted earth by a vital force of
living organism and monitoring of a contaminated environment with plants, are
now in progress. For an achievement of our "Green Science", we start to
cultivate the ground and seed in the first place, and aim at to create a new
field fused Biology and Chemistry for good Health, Food and Environment. |

| Structure of the Course Curriculum |
|
The subjects are categorized into fundamentals and specialties. They include lectures exercises, and laboratory work including plant practices. The students study 19 required subjects(38 credits) and additional 22 subjects(44 credits) in fundamental and specialized fields. In addition, individual projects (thesis required) are designed for the fourth year students to give them experience in research methods, report writing and presentation. |
