Research Groups & Research Areas

• Information Engineering

  In this research, we extract information from and discover knowledge in gigantic Internet or genome databases. Research on cutting-edge information systems integrates a large number of computers and robots into living spaces to create a comfortable and people-friendly environment.

  Harada Research Group / Nishiyama Research Group / Owada Research Group

• Production Systems Engineering

  In this area, we research the methodology for economically creating a fast and smooth "material flow" from raw material procurement up to production and sales, while fully utilizing management resources such as information, equipment, people, and capital.

  Goto Research Group / Ishigaki Research Group

• Social Systems Engineering

  Perceiving a company, a factory, the global environment or other extremely complex structure as a system, we express the relations among its constituent elements by use of a model described by a large number of numerical and theoretical formulas, and search for measures to improve the system in question through simulations or various experiments.

  Dowaki Research Group / Seo Research Group

• Management Mathmatics

  To carry out human business such as corporate activities or social activities in an efficient manner, it is firstly important to express behavior or a phenomenon by use of a mathematical or statistical model. Using this model, we can find the solution which is optimal from a scientific and objective perspective.

  Suzuki Research Group / Takashima Research Group

• Management Systems Engineering

  Corporate activities and social activities are run by groups (organizations) of humans. A management system is a scheme of various ideas for ensuring the functionality and adequacy of the activities of an organization. Famous examples include quality management, cost management, and environmental management.
