We uphold the concept of co-innovation that comprehensively includes engineering approaches and humanities/social scientific approaches. We promote research on global issues, urban problems, the environment, resources, and international development on both the macro and micro scale.
The word “global” has various meanings such as “global vs. local” or “macro vs. micro.” In the Graduate Major in Global Engineering for Development, Environment and Society (GEDES), we clearly recognize the significance of these diversified points of view and consider the viewpoints of other academic fields in addition to engineering. We promote research and foster individuals who can articulate the impacts and roles of their researches in our society. The GEDES faculty comes from various fields such as urban meteorology, disaster prevention engineering, biological engineering, space engineering, environmental policies, international development, sociology and translation studies. They have come together for “creation and collaboration” to further education and research in fields that are constantly evolving.

Tokyo Tech provides full degree programs in English at all levels. The Global Scientists and Engineers Program (GSEP) is a transdisciplinary Bachelor of Engineering program that offers budding leaders a breadth of science, engineering, and management courses with a focus on solving real-world problems. Undergraduate and graduate education are housed under the same roof in Tokyo Tech’s six schools, ensuring seamless curricula and smooth transition from one level of study to the next. The Institute for Liberal Arts provides a broad selection of humanities and social science courses up through the doctoral level to supplement Tokyo Tech's specialized science and engineering education. Hisao & Hiroko Taki Plaza, a large international exchange hub opening in the heart of Ookayama Campus in academic year 2020, will offer students more space for group work, events, and other fun.
