Graduate School of Advanced Mathematical Sciences

The encouragement of cross-disciplinary integration of humanities and science in education and research activities allows us to transmit mathematical concepts to society and use them to build a better world. The Graduate School of Advanced Mathematical Sciences uses cutting-edge mathematics to clarify the complex systems that appear in nature, society, and biological organisms, and then drives social innovation by returning the results of this research to society in the aim of contributing to a better life for all humankind. With this as a guiding principle, the school works to develop professionals who have a sophisticated and broad understanding of mathematics, which enables them to interface with a variety of phenomena and act as a bridge linking mathematics and other sciences. Mathematicians with these skills will be able to work globally and further advance their career.

Location Nakano Campus 4-21-1 Nakano, Nakano-ku, Tokyo 164-8525, Japan
Area Kanto Region (Tokyo, etc.)
Postgraduate School Started April, 2011
No. of Students 131 (as of May 1, 2020)
No. of International Students 10 (as of May 1, 2020)
No. of Full and Part-Time Faculty Members 6 (as of May 1, 2020)
Additional Information The focal point of the Graduate School of Advanced Mathematical Sciences is the research guidance system that will be applied to all students. Under this system, students will be supervised through consolidation of a fusion of modeling (mathematical description of phenomena), simulation (analysis of phenomena), and mathematical analysis, which are all crucial for the effective study of mathematical modeling and analysis. Supervisors will be chosen from each of these fields, and make up “Team Fellow” which will be responsible for overlooking the student’s research versatilely. Especially outstanding is the fact that amongst MIMS fellows and research fellows, there are many leading academics in the field of mathematical modeling and analysis, coming not only from Meiji but also from other various institutions.

Graduate School of Global Governance

There is a strong and urgent need to develop human capital for tackling global issues such as poverty, pollution, human rights, and democracy, which can only be solved through a global spectrum. The doctoral course of the Graduate School of Global Governance has been established to accommodate these needs. The school will enhance the students' knowledge and ability so that they can become independent scholars who are capable of doing in-depth analysis and finding actual solutions to global issues whilst incorporating cultural differences. The students would become policy makers and highly professional practitioners, working for international or national entities. The curriculum consists of "Public Policy", "International Development Policy", and "Community Management". By completing the doctoral program, the students will have cultivated skills to observe public policy goals to find solutions to: environmental issues, the alleviation of world poverty and disparity, securing human rights, implementation of democratic states, local revitalization and crisis management.

Graduate School of Governance Studies

The goal of the Graduate School of Public Policy, "Governance Research", is to develop students into skilled professionals with a high degree of specialist knowledge and a broad, international perspective, to leverage the benefits generated by public policy education and research programs to support policy creation by local communities and governments, and to develop students into professionals with a high degree of specialist knowledge and an international outlook. The course is aimed at people involved in local politics and administration as well as international cooperation—heads of local government, assemblymen and women, civil servants, NPO and NGO staff and even corporate employees—as well as universities graduates seeking to enter the civil service and who have an interest in these areas of public policy.

Graduate School of Science and Technology

We at the Graduate School of Science and Technology offers a brand of education and research that seeks to merge science and engineering by promoting an understanding of the laws of nature and mathematical structures and applying that knowledge to the ongoing development and happiness of mankind. To achieve this, we have a curriculum centered on basic subjects taught with subsequent application in mind, applied subjects based on fundamental theory, and boundary subjects designed to encourage broad application in a variety of fields. Our goal is to develop students into expert researchers and professionals whose skills are not confined to science and technology, but who have the extensive range of abilities needed to work in a cross-section of fields including social and human sciences. We wish to produce graduates who not only relish the challenges of keep up with the times and working in new fields, but who also have deep reserves of humanity and compassion to complement their internationally viable scientific capabilities.
