In this class, students learn about various health issues related to community health care and the healthcare systems, and learn what solutions should be formulated from the standpoint of local governments.
The class consists of three parts: Part 1: Introduction to regional systems, Part 2: Regional health issues, and Part 3: Proposing policy issues from the standpoint of local governments (group work).
Basic knowledge is not required, but students with insufficient knowledge are requested to read through the handouts and prior study materials.
Group work is only for those who wish to do so, and students who do not wish to do group work will be given tests and other assignments.
The objective of this course is to give students an introduction to critical legal thinking by studying the nature of “law” and providing an overview of “legal reasoning”. The topics will address many different issues and debates but we will focus particularly on the following questions:
What is the role of law in our society?
How does law justify itself?
How does law relate to ethics and morality?
What happens when opposing rights conflict with each other?
What defines power in a juridical system?
What are the strength and weaknesses of democracy?
This course is designed to assist students to explore various topics underlying international development from both theoretical and methodological perspectives. We particularly focus on the human capital accumulation which is regarded as a driving force of economic development.
This is a project-based course where you will learn more details of Python and some applications using Python.
The purpose of this course is to learn the basics of policy law and how policies are considered and implemented in the field of information and communications policies. Specifically, this course will provide basic knowledge of policy legal issues and case studies on how policies have been considered and implemented for each administrative issues related to broadcasting, telecommunications, radio waves, personal information protection and consumer protection.
Basic Course 2 is for the students who want to learn Chinese as a “Second language” .The textbook and the teaching materials are same as the one used in Intensive courses, but there are more students in Basic Course (30 to 40 students in each class) . Japanese is also allowed in the class.
Basic 2 will study lesson 8- 14.
Skill-Kurs G 5: Der Kurs ist die Fortsetzung des G4-Kurses im letzten Semester. Hier koennen Sie Ihren Wortschatz erweitern und die Grammatik festigen, die sie schon aus der G2, G3 und G4 kennen. Somit ist dieser Kurs auch eine gute Vorbereitung auf die B1-Pruefung (Goethe Zertifikat B1) des Goethe-Instituts. Wir empfehlen dringend, an beiden Kursen (Montag 2. Stunde und Dienstag 4. Stunde) teilzunehmen. An beiden Tagen arbeiten wir mit dem gleichen Lehrbuch (Spektrum Deutsch B1+).
We overview differential and integral calculus learned at high school. Our aim is to generalize these to functions of several variables. For functions with one variable, first we extend the concept of tangent (linear approximation) to the theory of Taylor (polynomial approximation). As an application, we can solve the extreme problem in detail. For functions of several valuables, derivative is called partial derivative. We extend the theory of Taylor and the extreme problem to functions with several variables. Moreover, we consider integral of functions of several variables, which is called multiple integral. By using this we can obtain volume and area of high dimensional objects.

具体的に、データの種類・データ収集・データの記述・関係の分析・確率・仮説検定・相違の分析を扱います。
Artificial intelligence may have a great impact on society in the future. In order to understand capabilities and limits of artificial intelligence, it is necessary to understand computers as its foundation.
In the first half of this course, we learn fundamental knowledge of practical usage of computers and networks in SFC. In the second half, we learn programming skills which are necessary to take advantage of computers.
After this course, you will be able to learn advanced programming skills in Fundamentals of Information Technology 2.
Using Processing, a programming language and development environment, we will think about design through programming. In addition, students will practice and create works while actually coding. Aimed mainly at beginners in programming, the course will start with the basics of programming (control structure, repetition) through visual expressions, and eventually aim to acquire advanced expressions using 3D expressions, image processing, and data analysis.

This class is an environmental design practice studio that integrates architecture, urban design, and landscape architecture.
Architecture is necessary for people to live. Architecture is an artificial work, but human life is deeply related to nature in many ways. Human beings are a part of nature, and getting close to nature is a basic human desire. On the other hand, nature sometimes shows a life-threatening appearance. The fundamental role of architecture is to protect human life from the harsh aspects of nature, and at the same time, enjoy the blessings of nature and enjoy it from the bottom of our hearts.
Students will draw a new landscape image of the subject region by presenting a design for a given theme or the found problem after analyzing the region's situation with open data and information technology. Students are expected to understand the environmental strategy that builds the relationship between nature and human beings and acquire skills.
This is an advanced practical environmental design studio for graduate students who have a significant educational background in the field and who have decided to specialize in architecture, landscape design, urban design and city planning. The course is built around an international and multi-disciplinary perspective and offers broad training in practical problem solving at various scales in the built environment.
Students are asked to use design problems as the vehicle for creation of concrete proposals in architectural design, landscape design, urban design, and city planning, and to explore real and contextual issues of the urban environment at an advanced level.
A chief goal of the class is for students to come to understand the multi-layered and intertwined structure of the urban environment through the design process, and to develop the tools needed to design persuasive and comprehensive proposals in the urban context. Students who achieve high standing in all four applied environmental design studios will qualify to complete the master's degree though a non-master's thesis course.
This class offers students to learn video expression through both the practice of making video work and analysis on moving image works, with the focus on “direct cinema” during this semester.

Green infrastructure
This seminar concentrates on ecosystem-based infrastructure. Students attend a project team and read some books and articles about ecosystem-based infrastructure. The United States Environmental Protection Agency defines green infrastructure as a cost-effective, resilient approach to managing wet weather impacts that provide many community benefits. Also, it states that while single-purpose gray stormwater infrastructure―conventional piped drainage and water treatment systems―is designed to move urban stormwater away from the built environment, green infrastructure reduces and treats stormwater at its source while delivering environmental, social, and economic benefits. On the other hand, Natural England defines it as a strategically planned and delivered network comprising the broadest range of high-quality green spaces and other environmental features. It should be designed and managed as a multifunctional resource capable of delivering those ecological services and quality of life benefits required by the communities it serves and needed to underpin sustainability. In short, green infrastructure is basic social systems and facilities supplied by natural resources or approaches, making the best use of them. Science Council of Japan announced a proposal about ecosystem-based infrastructure in September 2014. It means green infrastructure based on ecosystem. In the seminar, students see what green infrastructure is through books or articles and practice through projects. There are some special talks.
