International Masters/Doctoral Courses in Sustainable Architecture and Urban Systems

The development of low-carbon, resource-efficient buildings and urban centers is becoming extremely important against the background of the ever-increasing consumption of natural resources. Our Master’s and Doctoral courses provide students with opportunities to develop the advanced knowledge and skills required to find innovative solutions to these needs. Our courses consist of urban and architectural design workshops and construction training classes to improve the professional skills of our students. With our diverse resources, we offer unique research opportunities in architectural design, building environment, structural mechanics, urban design, regional planning and disaster management. These courses will collaborate with major universities in Asia and the UN-HABITAT Fukuoka office in developing a new curriculum. We believe that students of these courses will play an active role as leaders in global sustainability.

Faculty of Agriculture – international programmes:

Kyushu University’s large and prestigious Agriculture Faculty boasts extensive links with societies throughout Asia, from where it recruits many of its students. 

  • International Development Research Course (M.Sc)
  • International Development Research Course (Ph.D.)

These Courses -first introduced in 1994- are among the first English language programs offered by Kyushu University. We have designed the curricula to be especially suited to the needs of students from developing countries who aspire to contribute to global sustainable development. All of our five Departments offer both Master’s and Doctoral Programs, except Innovative Science & Technology for Bio-industry, which admits Doctoral candidates only. Upon admission, students are assigned to one of our Departments. One of our major strengths is the range of scholarship opportunities which we offer. For candidates interested in pursuing a Master’s degree, government-funded Human Resource Development scholarship (JDS) is available, and currently more than ten JDS scholars (from Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar, and Lao-PDR) study with us. Since 2010, we have also started offering Asian Development Bank-Japan Scholarships (ADB-JSP). This financial aid, together with MEXT Scholarships, should enable talented students from developing countries to have privileged access to the high quality education and research that we offer.
