Educational Purposes and Three Policies

Educational Purposes

In accordance with School Philosophy, the Graduate Graduate School of Pharma-Science promotes the development of problem-solving skills and a research mindset, in order to respond to social demands for pharmacists, which are becoming more diverse and sophisticated in line with advances in medical care. The purpose of this program is to develop pharmacists who have the necessary skills to become highly skilled medical professionals, as well as educators and researchers who have excellent research and leadership abilities.

Three policies of the Graduate School of Pharma-Science

In order to meet the social demands of pharmacists, which are becoming more diverse and sophisticated with advances in medical care, the Graduate Graduate School of Pharma-Science aims to foster problem-solving abilities and a research mindset, to train pharmacists as advanced medical professionals who also possess the abilities of scientists, and to foster educators and researchers with excellent research and leadership abilities. Degrees will be awarded to those who have acquired the following abilities, completed the required number of credits, and passed the thesis examination and examination.

  1. Possess the high level of specialized knowledge and research skills required to independently conduct research activities as a researcher, as well as a wealth of academic knowledge as a basis for these, and be able to deal with difficult problems in the field of medical science.
  2. Possess ethics and humanity as a medical professional, and can contribute to people's health and medical care.
  3. Possesses qualities as an educator and researcher with excellent leadership in pharmaceutical science, which is the science of medicine and health.

In order to cultivate talented individuals who meet the needs of society, such as pharmacists who have acquired the skills required for the degree and can assume leadership roles in the medical field, and excellent educators and researchers in the field of pharmaceutical education, Graduate School of Pharma-Science has organized its curriculum according to the following policies.

  1. We aim to develop the ability to understand medical care from a scientific point of view through special lectures and special lectures in a wide range of scientific fields.
  2. By conducting special research on pharmaceutical subjects under the guidance of a faculty member in the laboratory to which he or she belongs and creating a diploma, he or she will improve his or her problem-solving ability and research mindset, and acquire research ability, specialized knowledge and skills as an independent researcher. 
  3. Through various exercises in your laboratory, you can broaden your expertise and acquire logical thinking skills.
  4. Through practical training in hospitals, we will develop human resources who have advanced clinical practical ability as pharmacists, while solving various problems in drug treatment from the viewpoint of scientists and contributing to the realization of more advanced medical care.

The Graduate School of Pharma-Science will further expand the knowledge and experience learned in undergraduate education, (1) training human resources with advanced research and educational abilities required of drug treatment leaders in clinical settings, and (2) university education, pharmacy administration, and pharmaceuticals. We aim to develop useful human resources who have the knowledge and skills essential for the development of clinical pharmacy and can play a leading role even in non-clinical settings such as companies.
At this Graduate School, we have two courses, a clinical pharmacy course and a pharmacy course, to train human resources corresponding to (1) and (2) above. For admission, the former requires pharmacist qualifications and awareness. In the latter case, the qualification of a pharmacist is not always required, and we also accept human resources who have solid basic abilities in areas not found in conventional pharmacy.
Both courses require enrollees with the following abilities and qualities through study in undergraduate education.

  1. Students have a wide interest in medical care and health, and have a rich humanity such as caring for others.
  2. Students have a passion for truth-seeking in the field of science.
  3. In the increasingly sophisticated clinical setting, students have the ambition to take on the challenge of new medical treatment with scientific grounds and logic.
  4. With a high degree of specialization and excellent research ability, students are motivated to teach younger students at universities and medical sites.
