Creative Science and EngineeringⅠ FeaturesⅡ History and ProfileⅢ RequirementsAdvanced Science and EngineeringFundamental Science and EngineeringCONTENTSarrangement of macromolecules. Polymer Chemistry serves as a basis for understanding and creation of these high molecular materials.In Polymer Chemistry, students systematically learn about the synthesis and properties of polymers, biopolymers, and high polymer materials and master science and engineering of high molecular materials developed through practice from the standpoint of functional design in a new field. In addition, through experimental studies selected from advanced courses such as energy-storage and -conversion, super engineering plastics synthesis, precision polymerization, and controlled nanostructures, students learn correlations of structures, properties, and functions of polymers to develop their ability to pursue original and creative studies while flexibly responding to the demands of society.◆ Catalytic ChemistryCatalysts are important in the production process of almost all the chemical industries including oil and petrochemistry or in all the fields in which a chemical reaction is involved such as environmental, resources saving, and energy technology. Catalysts are one of the courses most studied in the field of applied chemistry and chemical engineering. Most practical catalysts are solid catalysts and the surface is involved in chemical reactions; therefore, the catalysis is complicated and includes a wide range of issues from the structures of the solid, surface, and the reaction mechanism to the analysis and design of reactors.In Catalytic Chemistry, students systematically learn the basic theories about catalysts and catalyses and aim to comprehensively and thoroughly master the science and engineering of catalyses for representative industrial catalyst processes through seminar courses. Furthermore, by selecting a particular and advanced catalyst system and a reaction process, students develop their ability to pursue original and creative studies in the underlying catalyst science, in particular, relations between preparation and the structure of catalysts, relations between the surface and solid structures and the properties and functions, the reaction mechanism, etc.◆ Applied BiochemistryBiotechnology is a technology enabling reactions at normal temperatures and pressures and enables the development of an energy-saving, safe, and secure substance production process. In Applied Biochemistry, studies are conducted for establishing production methods of useful substances and developing new substance synthesis processes using microorganisms and microbial enzymes. We also advance studies on molecular breeding technologies of useful microorganisms (cell fusion and genetic engineering). The present study themes are classified into the following six items. However, the studies on each item are closely related to each other and there are many studies being advanced in boundary areas: (1) production of organic acids (mainly citric acids) and amino acids and solution of related metabolic systems, (2) molecular breeding and 133133
