Department of Engineering for Innovation

Features of Learning

FEATURE

FEATURE 01

The "one department and five divisions" system is utilized in the concentrated study of specialized fields.

Tomakomai College has adopted the “one department and five divisions” system. Rather than setting a specialized course at enrollment, students are allowed a full year to choose a specialty suited to their own aptitude. From the second year, education is divided into 5 divisions to focus on a specialized field of study.
In addition to acquiring engineering expertise and interdisciplinary ability, this new educational system allows students to develop abilities needed for an enriched humanity, a broad perspective, and innovation, which are essential for the next generation. From the 4th year, education is divided into specialized courses or the Frontier Course.

FEATURE 02

The power to create a new generation is developed through our original subjects.

Educational contents are the effective combination of general subjects (mathematics, English, and Japanese, etc.) and specialized engineering subjects, in order for students to easily acquire the practicality and creativity necessary in "manufacturing (monozukuri)."
In addition, the ability to create a new generation is cultivated through our original subjects "Creative Engineering" and "AI and Data Science". From the 5th year, graduate research is carried out as the culmination of 5 years of study.

For students to become
engineering leaders
with a broad viewpoint
and who can play
an active role in a company.

Specialized
Courses

In this course, students are taught the basics of other industrial fields while further studying a specialized field.
Students are trained to be engineering leaders with a broad viewpoint and who can play an active role at a work site as required by the next generation.

Division of Mechanical Engineering

Students learn monozukuri over a wide range, such as energy and environmental technologies, including cars and robots.

Division of Civil Engineering

A wide range of contents are studied in order to construct facilities and structures where people can live safe and comfortable lives.

Division of Applied Chemistry and Biochemistry

Students learn information and technologies related to chemicals and biochemicals in order to become chemical engineers.

Division of Electrical and Electronic Engineering

Students learn motor and semiconductor technologies related to electric vehicles, renewable energy, drones, and smartphone structures.

Division of Computer Science and Engineering

Students learn information and communication technology, including the Internet, in order to support an advanced information society.

Students can learn knowledge
required to become a
business manager in the future.

Frontier Course

In addition to studying specialized engineering from the 4th year, students learn management-related subjects needed to become a company manager or project leader in the future.

Hybrid innovative human resources who can lead the next generation through "Engineering" + "Management" are trained.

What are hybrid innovative human resources?

Human resources capable of next generation business start-ups
Human resources capable of being the center of a company or government agency in the region
Human resources capable of being project leaders in major companies, etc. with excellent business sense.
Human resources capable of competing internationally.
