Models for a course of study completion

The education program is a system for students to organize an individual model for a learning course of their own in accordance with guidance on academic credits. Samples of models are as follows:
Sample 1　Sample 2　Sample 3

Class scenes with distinctive learning approaches

This is a picture of a class conducted in the lecture building. Small-group strategies are employed for laboratory work and seminars with attentive teaching.

Here is an example of an assignment in a design drawing class (a pump.) Click here for a video.

Through small group learning, each individual group has a diverse experimental theme of its own regarding each specialized field in the Mechanical Engineering Education Program. Laboratory research covers a wide range of topics and students are encouraged by teachers and teaching assistants of graduate students. Thus, students in education programs actively engage with the learning materials. This program trains students using diverse exercises to enhance the abilities of presentation and of writing skills for technical documentation.

How was the arrow in this picture created? Practical knowledge and skills are cultivated in training courses, such as processing methods and skills using machine tools, welding, and the disassembly and assembly of an engine.
