Characteristics of the Integrative Environmental Sciences Program

The Integrative Environmental Sciences program integrates geoscience, which analyzes the global environment underpinning the coexistence of life by means of physicochemical techniques, and life sciences, which clarify the interactions of life and the environment from the perspective of life; in addition, the program aims to analyze the conflict between life and the drastically changing global environment in composite and dynamic terms, and to contribute to the creation of new scientific fields that can formulate measures that will bring about a balance between the two.

The program is organized into seven ordinary fields based around teaching and research, and two fields based on the cooperative graduate school system. In these fields, we aim to cultivate creative researchers and highly educated professionals who can clarify new relationships between the rapidly metamorphosing living environment and life on earth, and make recommendations relating to the ideal global environment in which humanity and other organisms can coexist, as well as responding flexibly to various environmental problems.
