1. Major in Electronics & Computer Engineering


Electronics and computer engineers are very active in all phases of modern technology: research, design and development, testing, and manufacturing. The major offers basic and diverse courses in electronics and computer engineering concepts and experience in applying these concepts to industry. The required courses equip the students with knowledge of basic electrical and physical science, electronics, computers, information and communication. The elective courses offer opportunities for professional specialization, area specialization, or interdepartmental/interdisciplinary broadening.This major will be divided into two in 1996: the Major in Electronic Engineering, which will be incorporated with the Major in Electrical Engineering, and the Major in Computer, Information and Communication, which will focus on information and communication.

3. Major in Ceramic Engineering


Placing the greatest emphasis on ceramic materials, the major provides a well-organized program designed to help students acquire both theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of material science. The major courses offered by the major include material thermodynamics, introduction to material science, physical ceramics, ceramic processing, electro- and magnetic ceramic materials, and other applied fields. The lab is equipped with a variety of modern facilities such as an X-ray diffractometer, a differential thermal analyzer, a particle size analyzer, a frequency response analyzer, and so on.

4. Major in Metallurgical Engineering


The objective of the metallurgical engineering program is to provide the student with a sound preparation for a career in the field. The undergraduate education of a metallurgical engineer at the major is based on four curriculum stems: basic science, and physical, chemical and mechanical metallurgy. Based on the sound background in mathematics, physics and chemistry the major offers the important courses related to thermodynamics, heat treatment and phase transformation, ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy, deformation processing, surface treatment, and advanced materials. In addition to the theoretical studies carried out in classes the student will be equipped with the practical knowledges and skills required in the industries through the experimental work in laboratories. The steelmaking plants, auto and shipbuilding industries, space and aircraft industries, and national laboratories are only limited examples among the endless list of the fields in which the graduates are playing an important role.

6. Department of Industrial Chemical Engineering


Industrial chemistry is a discipline focusing on chemistry-related technology. Its applied fields include petroleum refinery, petrochemical industries, pharmaceutical industries, pulp and paper industries, soap and detergent industries, energy-related industries, and environment- related industries. The areas of study in this department range from basic knowledge of chemistry and chemical engineering to advanced knowledge in the synthesis of new materials, mechanisms of chemical reactions, and chemical processes. Seven well equipped and updated laboratories provide facilities for experimental courses. Career opportunities after graduation include technical jobs in chemistry-related industries, and in government-sponsored or private research institutes. Students may also enroll at graduate school to further their studies.

7. Department of Mechanical Planning Engineering


Just as industry in general utilizes advanced knowledge, information, and technology, mechanical industry, more then any other industrial sector, also needs the foundation of accumulated knowledge and technology for further development. To meet the needs of mechanical industry, the courses offered by the department are organized into three divisions solids and thermal/fluid engineering division, CAD/CAM and automatic design and operation division, and production engineering division. Graduates from this department play central roles in advanced research in mechanical industry, or in cooperative utilization of technical information with other industries, or in providing technical information and vision for a successful industrial policy of the government.

8. Department of Naval Architecture & Ocean Engineering


The program in naval architecture and ocean engineering offers a wide range of courses covering basic mechanics and advanced topics required for students to carry out designing and constructing ships and other various ocean structures. Carefully developed curriculum and a high precision experimental environment are provided in order to maximize the educational efficiency. Voluntary students' participation in various in-or interuniversity design contests are encouraged and carefully guided by the faculty who are actively involved in up-to-date researches. Widely open to the graduates are job opportunities in the field of challenge taking ocean exploitation as well as the nation's leading shipbuilding and ocean structure building industries.
