Faculty of Applied Information Science

Department of Information Systems

This department equips students with the skills to develop diverse information systems, including applications, web systems, and AI technologies. With a foundation in human-centered design principles and design thinking, students enhance their ability to improve the usability of information systems. By mastering these skills, they create purpose-driven systems that elevate the quality of life and advance business operations.

Education and Research Areas

  • Web System Design

    Students study not only programming knowledge essential for development but also a wide range of IT-related knowledge and human-centered design methodologies that prioritize user-friendliness. This comprehensive education equips them with the expertise needed to design web systems.

  • Intelligent Media Design

    Web services that leverage cutting-edge AI technologies―such as image recognition, real-time automatic speech translation, and automatic subtitle generation for video platforms ―are already in practical use. Students acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to develop innovative services using these advanced technologies.
