Faculty of Life & Environmental Sciences

There are 3 departments where students study animals, life, and nature.
Expand your perspective to understand life and contribute to society.

Department of Natural & Environmental Science
(Tokyo West Campus / Senju Campus)

Surrounded by nature, nurture your consideration of environmental problems.

In this department, students will learn a well-balanced curriculum of two subjects:
"nature environment field" based on research and analysis through fieldwork, as well as
"environment chemical field" based on chemical experiments, measures, and analysis.
From the 4th year, students will be assigned to a research lab where they deepen their expertise according to their interest.
Students nurture their perspectives in order to think about how to solve environmental problems and build a sustainable society.

Three Features

Point 1

Develop a comprehensive perspective by studying biology and chemistry

In this department, students learn the relationship between biology and nature necessary for solving environmental problems, and gain knowledge about the relationship between chemistry and the environment in a well-balanced manner.
After cultivating a perspective for comprehensive consideration of the environment, students will deeply explore themes that interest them.

Point 2

Acquire the ability to think and solve by yourself through fieldwork and practical training

Fieldwork is indispensable in the "biological environment field".
The Tokyo West Campus, which is close to forests, rivers, and dams, is a privileged environment for fieldwork.
In addition, it is possible for students to participate in "special environmental training" held in the Ogasawara Islands.
Through practical learning, students will develop the ability to discover, analyze, and solve problems.

Point 3

Extensive experimental equipment for thinking about environmental problems from the standpoint of chemistry

At the Tokyo West Campus blessed with nature, it is possible to conduct research that concerns environmental problems such as "the contamination of air, water, and soil of Mt. Fuji and Lake Sagami" by taking advantage of the proximity to these places.
The campus is fully equipped with facilities and equipment for conducting chemical experiments and analysis.
Students will acquire the ability to accurately analyze and measure the components of air, water, and soil using advanced technology, as well as to analyze the obtained data.
