The initiative named 'The Graduate School GP' is part of a project
started by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and
Technology in 2005. It is to promote inspirational and original
high-quality graduate studies and to nurture creative young researchers
to meet the demands of our society. For more information, please
refer to the homepage of the
Japan Society for the Promotion of Science.
In 2006, 'The cross-disciplinary DEGEIKO study system' of the Brain
Science and Engineering was chosen for the Graduate School GP. Mr.
Tetsuo Furukawa is in charge of the study system. |

The principle of Kyushu Institute of Technology since its establishment
has been to produce skillful, accomplished and competent "ladies
and gentlemen" with a thorough grasp of technology. Based on this
principle, we are promoting four mid-term objects. They are: Educating
and producing engineers who will be recognized worldwide; Producing
top-notch results in various research fields; Promoting industry-university
cooperation and thereby contributing to society; Creating new techniques
by cross-disciplinary collaboration.
In the department of Brain Science and Engineering, we will create
new research and industry fields by combining neuroscience and engineering.
As a harbinger, we will carry out first-rate research in the world.
We will also contribute to our society through industry-university
cooperation.
Regarding our research field in particular, we have been making
steady progress in our 21st
century COE program entitled the 'World of Brain Computing Interwoven
out of Animals and Robots'.
