| Outline and Purpose of the Course | The various technologies used in the field of material science serve as bases for so-called high technologies, and, in turn, the high technologies develop material science. These relate to each other very closely and contribute to the development of modern industries. In this class, recent progresses in material science are briefly introduced, along with selected current topics on new biomaterials, nuclear engineering materials, new metal materials and natural raw materials. The methods of material analysis and future developments in material science are also discussed. |
| Course Goals | To expand your field of vision for material science and to acquire accomplishments to identify the importance of technologies through the classes for developments in material science. |
| Schedule and Contents | Theme A: Application of Materials Week 1, Application of Electrical Discharge to Material and Environmental Technology Week 2, Tumor Imaging and Therapy through Photoirradiation Week 3, Application of Functional Oxides Week 4, Group work / Exercise Theme B: Material Development Week 5, Synthesis of Novel π-Conjugated Molecules with Main Group Elements Week 6, Chemistry of Asymmetric Catalysis – Stereoselective Synthesis of Optically Active Pharmaceutical Compounds – Week 7, New Timber Architecture with the Cross Laminated Timber Week 8, Group work / Exercise Theme C: Material energy and heat control Week 9, Radioactive Waste, Geological disposal, Safety Assessment, Radionuclide Migration Week 10, Photothermal heating for microfluidic control Week 11, Wastewater, Energy and Resource Recovery, Methane Fermentation, Fertilizer Week 12, Group work / Exercise |
| Grading Policy | The average score of the best two assignments for each topic is employed. For each topic which the students chose, they must attend minimum three lectures and submit minimum two assignments evaluated as "passed". |
| Prerequisites | Each topic consists of four lectures. This course requests to choose two topics from provided three topics in advance. It is prohibited to change the topics after registration. We may select students who can attend the class before starting the class. Students who intend to join the course are required to submit the application form through the web site which will be informed in the advance. |
| Preparation and Review | This course requests students to prepare a class in advance because some classes will be done by an interactive style. |
