1. Overview 

The IBS was accredited to grant doctorate degrees in MS&E in 2018, which began to enroll students in 2019.

2. Features

The supervisor group is composed of three to five professors (or experts with professional and technical titles and academic level) in this major or related major. Upon nomination by the supervisors, review by the Academic Degree Sub-Committee, and approval by the Academic Degree Committee of the University, associate professors with a doctoral degree or higher can be selected to assist the supervisor group.
