Outline:
General or Specialized : General
Field of learning : Natural science common / basic (general subject)
Foundational academic disciplines : Environmental conservation measure and related field
Relationship with Educational Objectives :
This class is equivalent to "(2) Acquire basic science and technical knowledge".
Relationship with JABEE programs :
The main goals of learning / education in this class is " A-1", also "G-2" and "B-1" are involved.
Course outline :
To develop awareness as an engineer by learning about the history and current situation of environmental problems and energy problems, which are problems in Japan and around the world, and by giving lectures on technologies for environmental improvement and environmental conservation. It is a discipline that corresponds to basic science and cultivates scientific thinking.
Style:
Course method :
Classes will be centered on PowerPoint, various media, and board writing. Based on the assignment reports (usually 10 times) related to current events, the lessons will be advanced while allocating a lot of time to discussions (including presentations) between teachers and students. This will improve the understanding of technical methods and foster students' awareness of environmental issues as engineers.
Grade evaluation method :
The presentation (presentation content 20%, slide content 20%, attitude toward discussion 20%) 60%, report content 40% will be evaluated comprehensively.
Notice:
Precautions on the enrollment
This courses are required to complete the academic year. (Students must take this class (no more than one-third of the required number of class hours missed). This is a class that requires study outside of class hours. Classes are offered for 15 credit hours per credit, but 15 credit hours of study are required in addition to this. Follow the instructions of your instructor for these studies.
Course advice :
It is important to pay attention to TV and newspaper reports on a regular basis.
Foundational subjects :
Biology I (1st year), Chemistry I (2nd), Chemistry II (2nd), Applied Chemistry (4th), Applied Biology (4th), etc.
Related subjects :
Mechanical design method I (3rd year), II (4th), Thermodynamics (4th), Fluid engineering (5th), etc.
Attendance advice :
This subject is related to environmental education and the development of core human resource for nuclear engineering. It is important to be always interested in the activities of the industrial world and energy issues from the environmental issues that are familiar to us, and we look forward to demonstrating not only awareness but also action. "Ear studies in chat" is useful in society. If you are late for 15 minutes, you will be considered absent.
