Information is at the core of society and of intelligence in the 21 st century.
The ever-rising dependence on information science and technology in modern
society - in industry as well as in personal life - demands the constant
reinforcement of the foundations along with the creation of new ideas. It is
also vital that we furnish a means of effectively configuring the advancement
of intelligent information systems that function as the brain and nervous system
of our society. It was to address these needs that the Graduate School
of Information Science and Technology (IST) was established in April 2001.
Six departments collaborate to lay the foundations for core science and
technology in the field of informatics, while at the same time forge a base for
international exchange of cutting-edge information science and technology.
In education, graduate students willing and able to manifest leadership at the
global level are cultivated through study based in a systematic curriculum in
combination with practical research participation.
An additional objective is to make the graduate school open to the society.
Examples of this effort include the establishment of the Affiliated Visiting
Professor Chairs and the Program for Industrial Collaborative Research as a
framework for fruitful partnership with industry. An international research and
education alliance is also promoted with universities and research institutions
around the world.
In October 2010, we started the English Program in Information Science
and Technology and it has quickly become a part of the main study program.
This program was established to answer the needs of an international age
by allowing graduate students enrolled in the program to carry out their
studies entirely in English. All courses needed to fulfill graduation requirements
are available in the English Program as well. Those who successfully
complete the program will receive a certified degree, just as all other
students with the only difference being studies were conducted entirely in
English instead of in Japanese.
IST is structured to facilitate the pooling of the wisdom and intelligence
of information science and technology at the University of Tokyo, and to
thereby act as an innovative base of graduate school level education and
research, targeting advanced information science and technology to better
serve the needs of the 21 st century.
