    Admissions

    Note: International applicants (both M.S. and Ph.D.) must secure an advisor before they will be admitted, and the advisor’s name must be included in the application. In the case of applicants applying for the GKS program, there is no space to write down the desired advisor on the application form. Therefore, applicants should submit their desired advisor when the department manager investigates later.

    • GSCT presents recommended curriculum subjects in order to improve research achievement by letting new students acquire the basic knowledge of both Science & Engineering and Humanities & Arts.
    • The downloaded file has a list of basic programming skills and recommended books that new students should read in advance of their GSCT studies if they want to get the most out of their academic experience.
