Aiming to realize a next-generation recycling society through green technology
Modern society, which relies on fossil fuels, has its limits. In order to create an environmentally symbiotic society, students learn about new technologies such as natural energy, biofuels, biodiversity conservation, urban greening, and plant factories.
-
Acquire a wide range of knowledge and skills required for environmental engineers
Environmental engineers are required to have fundamental knowledge and skills in areas such as resource recycling, water treatment technology, and living environment facilities, as well as a broad perspective and insight into areas such as reducing CO2 emissions, energy conservation, and preserving natural ecosystems.

Three Policies of the Department of Environmental Engineering
FacilityFacility Introduction
-
An intelligent campus towering over Omiya.
Equipped with the latest high-tech equipment, our intelligent campus is home to nine departments. In an environment where students can focus on cutting-edge research, each student acquires the skills and knowledge to create something from scratch.
-
Environmental Bioresource Research Center
The center was established as a base for industry-academia-government collaboration, handling everything from cultivation and analysis to device development for the development of environmental biotechnology, with a focus on microbial resources specialized for environmental conservation, with the aim of promoting joint research both within and outside the university, and research aimed at social implementation through industry-academia collaboration.
Q&AFrequently asked questions
-
What are the characteristics of the Department of Environmental Engineering at Osaka Institute of Technology ?
The Department of Environmental Engineering at Osaka Institute of Technology is a department that combines engineering, such as environmental measurement and evaluation of air, water, and soil, processing of chemical substances, and development of new energy, with agricultural science, which deals with living things and plants, and social systems engineering, which considers the creation of a resource-circulating society and environmentally conscious management. Solving "environmental problems" requires an approach from both the natural and social sciences. Taking advantage of the strengths of various fields, we tackle the latest "environmental science" in a cross-disciplinary manner. -
What are the characteristics of the education?
We thoroughly implement small class sizes. From the first year, we incorporate many experiments and practical training to pursue interest and ease of understanding. From the second year onwards, we set up courses that allow students to take more subjects to hone the skills required for their desired future career path, including subjects assigned to the department and subjects offered by other departments. In the third year, we also incorporate experiments and exercises that correspond to practical work such as surveys, design and facility operation to enhance career awareness. -
I like living things and would like to learn about ecosystem conservation and greening techniques. Is that okay?
Yes, you can study this in the Department of Department of Environmental Engineering. There are several faculty members who specialize in agricultural science in the Department of Environmental Engineering. We actively incorporate agricultural science lectures and seminars such as natural ecosystem restoration, wall greening, plant factories, and biofuels. -
What qualifications do you need after graduation?
After graduation, students can obtain any environmental qualification. Many students take on the challenge of obtaining qualifications such as ビオトープ管理士 or Associate Professional Engineer while still in school. In addition, if students take and pass the required teaching subjects, they can obtain a junior high school or high school science teaching license or a high school industrial teaching license. -
What are your plans after graduation?
We are considerate to help students find employment that utilizes their expertise, such as in public service, environmental consulting companies, the environmental department of the construction industry, environmental manufacturers, and environmental management companies. Many students also go on to graduate school to further their expertise. For more information, please see the employment page. -
Please describe the Department of Environmental Engineering in one sentence.
Our motto is to realize "Green Technology." In other words, we are a department that teaches "environmental techniques" to protect our beautiful earth and future generations.
