Introduction to Science and Technology A–E: Course Choice and Credits
In the specified 2026 curricula, students generally choose one course from Introduction to Science and Technology A–E, with the required credit amount and alternative options depending on the faculty or department.
How the one-course requirement works
For the 2026 curriculum at Tokyo Senju Campus, Introduction to Science and Technology A–E is listed as a one-of required choice for the Faculty of Engineering and the Faculty of System Design Engineering. In the natural-science technology category, the choice may be one course from either Physics A–C or Introduction to Science and Technology A–E. The shared notes also label these courses as open courses.
Design Engineering Department
Students in the Design Engineering Department must earn 2 credits by choosing courses from either Physics A–C or Introduction to Science and Technology A–E as a one-of required subject.
Information and Communication Engineering
Students in the Information and Communication Engineering Department must earn 2 credits by choosing one course from Introduction to Science and Technology A–E as a one-of required subject. The same department is also described as requiring one course from this group for the elective-required portion of the natural-science technology category.
Advanced Mechanical Engineering
Students in the Advanced Mechanical Engineering Department must earn 2 credits by choosing one course from Introduction to Science and Technology A–E as a one-of required subject.
