Faculty of Environmental Studies
Department of Global Environment Studies
This department offers education across three core fields: "Geoscience," which encompasses the study of the atmosphere, hydrosphere, geosphere, and disaster prevention; "Environmental Symbiosis," focusing on ecosystem conservation, biotopes, environmental analysis, and preservation strategies; and "Environmental Information," which includes observation technologies, surveying techniques, and spatial information systems for global environmental monitoring. The program cultivates specialists with practical skills to lead efforts in creating a sustainable society that harmonizes with the natural environment.
Education and Research Areas
-
Geoscience
Students gain specialized knowledge on climate change and develop expertise in meteorological observation and data analysis. They also study the mechanisms behind natural disasters, along with countermeasures and strategies for designing disaster prevention plans.
-
Environmental Symbiosis
Students develop expertise in ecosystems dynamics essential for addressing environmental challenges across local to global scales. They also acquire technical skills in field research methods and ecological diagnostics through applied environmental science training.
-
Environmental Information
Students learn advanced remote sensing technologies, which are vital for investigating and analyzing today’s global environment. Additionally, they acquire hands-on skills in surveying and geospatial information processing techniques.
