8 Best Biotechnology in Japan for 2024

The School of Life Science offers a variety of subjects in the fields of nutrition science for health enhancement and management, architecture for living environment, and biology for the regional environment. Students are supposed to learn about and understand the relationship between academic study and livelihood.

We aim to foster people with a broad knowledge of the primary industry, food, and bioscience, with knowledge and skills applicable to commercialization and industrialization of biological resources, who can contribute to the creation of new industries utilizing biological resources from an international perspective.

We train well-qualified people who are capable of acting in a variety of areas related to humans and animals. Our graduates have acquired the knowledge necessary for utilizing the results of animal research, from a genetic to biological level, in the lives of human beings. We will continue on our quest to form better relationships between people and animals and explore animal biotechnologies with animal life science as the foundation.

Chemistry that explains and unravels molecules that make up substances. Biotechnology that delves into gene-modification and fermentation utilizing the vital functions of living organisms. Deepening understanding of these two categories, students learn about the chemistry that can be applied to environmental issues and life, such as aqueous environments and cosmetics.

bioengineering is the field in which the organisms find and dexterous functions such as recognition, transmission, movement, and biosynthesis are investigated, and its outcome is employed for practical applications. Bioengineering major has been established to train students as high-leveled established engineers or researchers who are experts in the basics and application of biology-related sciences. Courses offered are planned to provide knowledge in wide areas of both basics and applications.

Searching for genetic information, the blueprint of life,through gene engineering The current flourishing of biotechnology would have been impossible without the establishment of the revolutionary technologies of gene engineering: cloning, base sequence determination, and gene amplification. The Genomics Course provides thorough instruction in key technologies, from the basics of gene engineering to state-of-the-art knowledge. Its goal is to train hands-on professionals with the "venture spirit" through basic research in areas such as the molecular analysis of plant information transmission systems using gene engineering technologies, immunological research focusing on antibodies, and investigations of the mechanisms by which viral pathogens manifest themselves; research and development of drugs targeting causative molecules by means of the genome and proteome drug discovery method; and applied research into areas such as a super-high-speed DNA amplification method combining gene engineering and nanotechnology, the creation of new virus detection technologies, and its application to DNA-based authentication methods.

Students study urban planning utilizing the urban modalities formed by autonomous citizenry control, multicultural societies and regional characteristics from a sociological perspective. Target Career Fields Various types of NPOs Consulting firms Government institutions (Planning/International relations departments)

This division provides education programs focusing on protein sciences and has four main lecture contents that are grappled with in Proteo-Science Center: infections molecular science, photo-life science, molecular life science, and protein function science.
