Can I take courses from different graduate schools at Katsura?

Yes, the interdisciplinary design of Katsura Campus encourages cross-registration. With advisor approval, students can take relevant courses from other graduate schools (e.g., an Energy Science student taking an Informatics course), fostering a broad and integrated educational experience.

How research-intensive are the Master's programs?

Programs are highly research-intensive from the start. Students typically join a laboratory (kenkyushitsu) upon admission, where their coursework is directly complemented by hands-on research projects, leading to a mandatory master's thesis defended before a committee.
