Departments Info

In the Semiconductor Device Program, students will acquire a foundation in fundamental natural sciences such as mathematics, physics, and chemistry, which are essential for semiconductor device engineering knowledge and skills. They will then apply this foundation to understand the foundational technologies that support semiconductor device engineering as a whole and acquire specialized knowledge to comprehensively address engineering challenges.

Courses in this program are categorized into general education courses and professional education courses. Within the professional education courses, there are fundamental engineering courses, engineering English courses, COC (Center of Community) related courses, as well as fundamental program courses, and applied program courses that are closely related to the Semiconductor Device Engineering program.

The general education courses are designed in accordance with Kumamoto University’s overall policy to cultivate individuals with broad and deep knowledge, international communication skills, the ability to adapt to information technology, and the capability to actively explore various challenges.

In the professional education courses, fundamental engineering courses are included to ensure a seamless transition from high school education, COC related courses aim to enhance students’ understanding of regional issues and the realities of the industry, and engineering English courses are designed to improve international communication skills.

Furthermore, there are fundamental program courses for studying common foundational subjects in the field of semiconductor device engineering and applied program courses that allow students to deepen their specialization in semiconductor device engineering based on their individual interests and aptitudes.
