The philosophy shared by all programs in the Graduate School of Advanced Mathematical Sciences is summarized in the words “creating, developing, and spreading mathematical sciences that contribute to society.” In keeping with this philosophy, the School aspires to the development of human resources who squarely face up to the complex problems arising in society, are equipped with the insight to identify their essence and practical problem-solving capabilities, and have the creativity to open up new fields on their own initiative. 

The Mathematical Sciences Program offers education and research that merge humanities and the sciences and are of an interdisciplinary nature, toward its ideal of mathematical sciences that send messages to society and contribute to it. It is dedicated to the elucidation of complex systems appearing in nature, society, living organisms, etc., using advanced mathematical sciences. The ultimate objective is to achieve social innovation by returning its findings to society, and thereby help to better human welfare. In line with this ideology, we strive to develop human resources who have acquired a sophisticated and broadly-based grounding in mathematical sciences, possess the power to act as interfaces with various phenomena and to bridge mathematics and other sciences, and are capable of extensive activity on an international scale.

The Master’s Program produces researchers or high-level specialized professionals who have mastered thinking from the perspective of mathematical sciences and the related technology, and aspire to the fusion of mathematics and other sciences. While based on the objectives of human resource development in the Master’s Program, the Doctoral Program further develops human resources who are capable of autonomous research activities as researchers.

The Frontier Media Science Program aims to be a world-class hub of research and development work in new information science that generates frontier media technology using approaches from the field of mathematical sciences, enriches life in the spiritual aspect by giving people a sense of satisfaction and interesting them, contributes to social and cultural advancement, and moves and inspires people.

In the Master’s Program, students acquire a grounding in mathematical sciences and basic theory in information science, as well as the technology enabling free programming of diverse information systems. The objective is to develop IT engineers for research and development, planning, and construction of information media systems that take account of human sensibility and psychology, and the human resources needed to design the related human interfaces. The Doctoral Program produces researchers and high-level specialized professionals equipped with a high degree of creativity, who will be leaders in the vanguard of information media.

The Network Design Program turns out human resources capable of operating, planning, and analyzing networks, which apply various models and change with the times, from engineering perspectives. In contemporary society, networks create new additional value by interlinking various elements. In light of this characteristic, the Program develops personnel with the ability to analyze patterns of user behavior and degree of satisfaction as well as business models in the context of networks.

The Master’s Program nurtures the growth of engineers who have a broad outlook and the sophisticated expertise needed to operate and plan network systems to support the infrastructure of a sustainable society. The Doctoral Program produces global human resources capable of extensive international activity, who have the creativity to open up new fields on their own initiative
