In 2006, the English Graduate Program in Socio-Environmental Engineering or EGPSEE (est.2000) expands to cover fields outside the Socio-Environmental Engineering Group and renames itself the English Engineering Education Program or the e3 program.
e3 program consists of the following subject groups:
Field Engineering for Environment
Engineering and Policy for Cold Regional Environment
Human Environmental Systems, Architectural and Structural Design
Built Environment
Solid Waste, Resources and Geoenvironmental Engineering
Materials Science and Engineering
Mechanical and Intelligent System Engineering
Besides obtaining new and advanced technology Japan processes, students in our program are able to develop human network beyond their fields of study. Thanks to the program concept that requires students to take courses outside their primary subject group and the all year round activities the students themselves organize.
MEXT scholarships offered by the e3 program are available only for the October intake. The application deadline is 15 December of the preceding year. Eligible applicants must be less than 35 years of age as of April 1 of the enrollment year, have a good command of English, competent in the academic fields chosen and excellent academic records.
At present about one third of our students obtained scholarships from other sources, e.g. MEXT scholarships through the Japanese embassies, AUN/SEED-Net programs, etc. The program assists applicants in securing the acceptance letter from appropriate professors.
