Division of Architecture

The Division of Architecture was founded in 1994 in the College of Natural Sciences as the Department of Architecture. Architecture covers up-to-date design environments, from museums to skyscrapers to the daily surrounding environment, as well as all surrounding facilities, including houses, museums, concert halls, schools, and offices. Until 2005, the Department of Architecture was part of the College of Engineering, and since 2006, it has expanded to the Division of Architecture as an independent division. The division consists of 2 majors: architecture major and architectural engineering major. In the Architecture Major, students study design and planning, while in the Architectural Engineering Major, students study core engineering technology and basic engineering knowledge, which includes structural engineering, environmental technology and construction management.

Department of Architecture

The curriculum consists of five areas:

Department of Architectural Engineering

The Department of Architectural Engineering operates a 4-year engineering education accreditation program, dividing the subject into the following areas:

In the graduate program, various projects are actively underway in such areas as structure repair and reinforcement, structural damage prediction, fire-resistance technology, energy-saving buildings, insulation technology, radiant cooling/heating technology, and construction management technology.

Division of Environmental and Food Science

The Division of Environmental and Food Science consists of Department of Environmental Science & Engineering and Department of Food Science and Engineering. Environmental and Food Science is a field of study for the 21st century where human beings, nature and technology coexist. Protecting nature is deeply concerned with preserving life, thus studying the environment implies protecting life. Food science and engineering is applied science which requires traditional food technology and complex integration of advanced technology for future industry.
