Life science methodologies are now changing drastically, combining with information technology or fine measurement technology. Now new types of specialists are needed in various fields of industry, academia, and government: specialists who can understand and introduce computer science approaches such as inference procedures based on massive data analysis or systematic simulation of biological organisms and living cells into life science methodologies. Therefore in this academy, we produce the following specialists through our program titled "Computational Life Science Doctors Education Program":

Life science and computer science are now progressing so rapidly that it is unrealistic for a student to specialize in both fields at once during his / her limited graduate school days. In fact, incomplete education in these fields could be disadvantageous for a student's future career path. Therefore in this program, we focus on providing our students with solid education in their main areas of expertise in life science or computer science to secure their future career paths. We then provide them with fundamental knowledge in their secondary specialties and with learning opportunities where they obtain problem-solving experiences effectively by applying their different specialties collaboratively.

I hope many students learn our innovative curriculum and be the leaders who will play an active role internationally in multiple fields in life science and computer science.
