Field of Information Engineering
Educational Aims
Information Engineering Field ( a field in Smart Mechanics Course ): to train students to be engineers who have enough ability of mainly information engineering, in which how to acquire, process, accumulate and transmit a large amount of information effectively are to be learned.
Field of Information Engineering
The rapid popularization and development of the computer has enabled it to evolve from a system which deals with large procedures and calculates quickly to one that can now judge and determine by itself. The development of this communication technology has created many kinds of information industries which use databases or online systems. In fact, it can be said that we now live in an “information society”
In such a society, students of this department must not only study basic subjects such as mathematics, physics and electronic engineering, but also carry out experiments and practice in information processing to acquire computer skills for calculation, communication and control. The purpose of the department is to train students to be “practical computer engineers who have a good command of various kinds of software”, for such engineers are in short supply in the fields of science technology, manufacturing, management, administration, distribution, medical services and education, in which information processing is becoming more and more important.
Regarding hardware, students study not only basic matters, but also deeply and widely about software. That is, after studying hardware technology about how the computer works, they begin to study techniques for programming, compilers and OS (operating system) structures, which are basic software technology. Then they study applied technology, such as computer networks, computer graphics, simulation, signal processing and database. To make practical use of what they have studied in specialized subjects, they do graduation research which enables them to develop the originality that will be essential when they engage in the development of software or system engineering. Through this five-year continuous
education, which involves not only classwork but also club activities and school events, students become humane, vivid, competent information processing engineers.
