The widespread use of computers, cell phones, and other means of communication, and their connection via networks, have allowed society to store, send, receive, transmit, and process sizable information in various forms, including text, images, voice, and video, with significant speed and ease. Along with this technological development, individuals and business entities, which are the major constituents of modern society, have also developed a new set of values. Values, knowledge, wisdom, and experience are gained as a result of fully utilizing the vast pool of information bestowed upon humanity. “Information Society” is the name we call the modern world, where we not only have the universal method to access and transmit information, but where we can also discover the knowledge, wisdom, and experience of humanity. Pursuing safety and accessibility as the ultimate goal, we strive to achieve our full potential in nurturing people and society to perform vital activities.
The Information Science Division aims to foster creative minds with a deep understanding of humans and society through information. Using their strong knowledge of basic and applied information science, students will be able to cut through the formidable complexities of the study, analyze mechanisms, and develop systems for fast-developing human-information dynamics.
Curriculum
The faculty is headed by experts representing the three themes of human information, social information, and information and communication. The Master’s Program trains advanced professionals who can respond to the advanced information society, while the Doctoral Program trains outstanding researchers. Students from the liberal arts field are also welcome.
