Fundamental Science and EngineeringCreative Science and EngineeringAdvanced Science and EngineeringⅠ FeaturesⅡ History and ProfileⅢ RequirementsCONTENTSSummary of Each Research AreaThe following two divisions have been established for the Department of Intermedia Studies. The progress in media technologies in recent years has increased expectations about the creation of new cultures and industries. However, associated problems such as qualitative and quantitative insufficiency of content, as well as incompatibility with living organisms, have become more prominent. Understanding and representing characteristics, sensibilities, and communication of living organisms as well as expressions for communication are needed, while activities intended to determine how to pursue study of scientific technologies that support such efforts are also required to resolve such problems and to support lifestyles and social systems that use next-generation media. The principle of the Department of Intermedia Studies is about taking up challenging activities in response to new social needs and creating new values through the fusion of science and technology with artistic expressions based on such awareness.Sophisticated and highly specialized education and research activities are promoted in this department aiming at developing “Intermedia,” a concept of transversing and fusing science and technology with artistic expressions. More specifically, two divisions, the Intermedia Engineering Division and the Intermedia Arts Division, are established for the master’s programs to offer lecture classes that reflect specialties of each department as well as research guidance intended to bring about fusion between the divisions. This transversing and fusing is done to achieve further levels of sophisticated research performance. Research guidance for master’s theses and doctoral dissertations are provided to achieve a level of performance that is equivalent to winning an award from a competition of international standards for research topics with the subject content productions.Students are recommended to complete lecture classes provided by the departments that correspond to individual specialisms and to proactively take initiatives to set research topics that transverse and fuse divisions.◆ Intermedia Engineering DivisionThis division encompasses fields such as visual and acoustic engineering, ergonomics, sensing engineering, virtual reality, artificial intelligence, robotics, and cognitive science. Research guidance is provided for research on acoustic communication science, dynamic expression systems, advanced media and ergonomics, human media technology as well as cognitive science.◆ Intermedia Arts DivisionThis division encompasses fields of design, music, art, semantics, and narratology. Research guidance is provided for research on musical information science, life expression as well as environmental art.76Department of Intermedia Studies
