The PhD in Computer Science at Yokohama National University is offered through the Graduate School of Engineering Science within the *Department of Mathematics, Physics, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, where doctoral candidates pursue advanced, research‑oriented study in areas such as information systems, computing, data science, software, artificial intelligence, and related interdisciplinary topics. Although the university does not list a standalone “Computer Science” title on its English website, research and doctoral training in this area falls under the Information Systems/Information Engineering specializations of the department’s doctoral programs, where students conduct independent research under faculty supervision, complete advanced coursework as required, and produce and defend a doctoral thesis that contributes original knowledge to computing and information research. The program is designed to develop researchers capable of addressing complex technological challenges in computing and allied fields at both academic and industrial levels, with opportunities to engage in interdisciplinary collaborations across engineering and science disciplines.

NOTE: The university may have additional program-specific eligibility requirements.
It is recommended to verify these on the official university website.
