The Graduate School of Engineering at Tokyo Polytechnic University offers a single Engineering specialization with a doctoral course alongside its master's course. The school describes its aim as developing capable people into advanced engineers and researchers with broad perspective and originality. The specialization is divided into an education section and a research section. The education section covers mechanical engineering, electrical and electronics engineering, information engineering, chemical and materials engineering, and architecture and wind engineering. The research section offers research subjects, taught through seminars, reading groups, experiments and creative work, and field subjects that can be taken from any specialist area. The school notes that its students include working adults and international students, and that supervising staff use up-to-date equipment and facilities for their research.
