Faculty of Marine Resources and Environment
Department of Marine Environmental Science
[Features of the department]
This program provides a comprehensive study of basic sciences related to the ocean and marine life in general. After learning a wide range of fundamentals related to the ocean and marine life, students can focus on either "Marine Science," which covers the ocean in general, from the atmosphere to the seafloor, or "Marine Biology," which covers the interactions between diverse marine life and the environment, while also acquiring specialized skills.
[Main Research Contents]
Aquatic ecochemistry, environmental measurement, physical oceanography, etc.
[Career paths of graduates]
Many students go on to graduate school, and many of them find employment in the civil service or in information and communications companies.
If you are interested in marine ecosystems and the environment, we recommend the Department of Marine Environmental Science.

Department of Marine Resources and Energy
[Features of the department]
Students will learn about and conduct research on topics such as the use of marine natural energy sources that do not emit greenhouse gases, such as offshore wind and tidal power, the exploration and production of seabed mineral resources and marine resources that are essential for the development of Japan's industry, the safe development of resources and energy with minimal environmental impact, surveying the marine environment, and dealing with marine pollution such as marine litter.
[Main Research Contents]
Use of natural marine energy, development and stable supply of marine resources, harmony between marine development and environmental conservation, etc.
[Career paths of graduates]
Approximately half of the students go on to graduate school. Many of the students find employment in the fields of energy, information and communications equipment, construction and civil engineering, metal resource development, and the environment.
If you are interested in seabed resource development, energy development, seafloor crustal movement, marine and coastal structures, marine acoustic technology, device engineering, and environmental chemical engineering, we recommend the Department of Marine Resources and Energy.
