4 Graduation Thesis 3
Based on specialized knowledge of electrical engineering and rbotics, stundetns recognize the breadth of electrical engineering
and robotics, and related technical fields, and the depth of specialized technical fields. And, based on this knowledge, students
acquire problem-discovery/problem-solving skills and presentation skills on their own by studying on interesting research
themes under the guidance of supervisors in their respective specialized fields.
The aims of the graduation research 3 and 4 are to learn the basics of research and technology development methods based
on what the students learned up to the 3rd year.
They are aquired by discussing problems, methods and means to solve them, research results, etc. through presentations in
the laboratory and department.
In Graduation Research 3, students must fully understand the background and purpose of their research topic, create a plan
to achieve the purpose, proceed with the research in accordance with the plan, and report progress and results in a timely
manner.
As conducting Graduation Research 3, from the viewpoint of content and continuity, a minimum of 150 hours of guaranteed study
time will be required.
Based on the knowledge of electrical engineering and robotics, the stundents will deepen their specialized knowledge through
graduation research 3 and improve their conceptual and research abilities.

Evaluation method and criteria
Achievement goals 1 to 4 will be evaluated by submitting graduation thesis progress reports multiple times.
Achievement goal 5 will be evaluated using the final presentation materials.
Achievement goal 6 will be evaluated based on the content of the final presentation.
Evaluate items corresponding to achievement goals 1 to 4, 5, and 6 using a predetermined rubric.
The evaluation score is
(Achievement goal 1 to 4: Full score of 25) + (Achievement goal 5: Full score of 40) + (Achievement goal 6: Full score of
35) = 100 points
A score of 60 or above is required to pass the course.
Evaluation follows the rubric of the evaluation sheet.
The rubric and evaluation sheet is disclosed to stundents.

Space Electric Propulsion Research
Space utilization and services have been expanding, and electrical engineering is playing an important role in developing
space transportation and energy systems. In this laboratory activity, students conduct researches on space electric propulsion
and space energy conversion engineering. More specific research themes are as follows:
1. Electric propulsion: Electric propulsion is one type of rocket propulsion systems that uses electric energy in space. In
this theme, students work on the development of electric propulsion systems, improvement of thruster performance, and elucidation
of internal physics.
2. Space environment utilization: The space environment exhibits various characteristics such as atmospheric gas, geomagnetic
field, and solar wind plasma in addition to solar energy. In this theme, students develop technologies using the space environment
for new possibilities of space missions and transportation systems.
3. Plasma engineering: Plasma is a keyword in electric propulsion research. Students work on experiments and numerical simulations
for understanding of plasma physics and development of new plasma devices.
