Department of Information Systems
Nurturing an information-oriented outlook alongside information processing technology
In an age where personal computers are the norm, a genuine “information-oriented outlook” is vital for acquiring information processing technology. Only with such an outlook is it possible to design and build reliable, user-friendly information systems. The Department of Information Systems seeks to nurture an information-oriented outlook while at the same time developing information processing technology.

About the Graduate School
Graduate School of Informatics (Master Course, Doctor Course)
Developing highly specialized professionals and researchers to meet the needs of society
Informatics as a combination of four distinct fields
The Graduate School pursues research in four fields that represent the extrapolation of other faculties and departments: “Management Information,” “Environmental Information, “Information Culture” and “Information Systems.” Research in these four areas produces highly skilled professionals capable of keeping abreast with rapid advances in information technology and social changes in the form of new developments in economic activity. The department also aims to establish the field of “Informatics” as a fully-fledged academic discipline.
