Institute for Molecular Science
Overview
The Molecular Science Program establishes a systematic understanding of molecules, the basic building blocks of matter, and trains the next generation of researchers to unravel the wide variety of phenomena exhibited by matter. We aim to produce graduates who can conduct advanced research (e.g., experiments, measurements, theory), rationally understand research results, challenge unexplored issues from free inspiration, pursue new intellectual values and universal truths, and contribute to human development based on molecular science.
This program consists of two programs: a five-year doctoral program for bachelor's degree holders and a three-year doctoral program for master's degree holders. Students will conduct their studies and research activities at the National Institute for Molecular Science, located in Okazaki, Aichi Prefecture.
