Department of Life Sciences has the goal of entering World Top 10 group by 2020 by nurturing science technology talent with creativity, initiative and global leadership and continuing to create research results that have huge academic and industrial impacts.

Our undergraduate courses not only provide students with knowledge and information that they will need to succeed in their field after graduation but also foster their creative research capabilities. We continue to work on new courses to meet the changing needs.

With a focus on more in-depth theories and findings of each field, our postgraduate courses are dedicated to nurturing well-rounded and creative scientists who can perform novel research and approach specialized research projects from various angles. To achieve this goal, we are committed to keeping the courses closely engaged while focusing on latest cutting-edge experiment research and trainings to keep up with the global trend.
