PBL is “Problem-Based Learning” or “Project Based Learning”, which is a training to collaboratively solve a problem with other
members in a group. Global PBL is a PBL conducted in collaboration with partner universities, companies, and government agencies
in Japan and abroad. In this program, participating students form project teams alongside students from partner universities
to address challenges defined by the university, faculty members from partner institutions, as well as local and international
corporations and government bodies.
Engaging in practical PBL-solving related to the field of electrical and electronic engineering (electric power and energy, system control and robot, nanoelectronics and photonics, information and bioelectronics), students operate in a diverse environment, communicating in English with peers from various backgrounds. This experience equips them with a range of essential skills, including effective information and opinion communication, a strong grasp of intercultural understanding, leadership capabilities, team organization skills, and proficiency in PBL-solving. Through English discussions with team members representing diverse backgrounds, students develop the multifaceted skills necessary for global engineers, encompassing effective information and opinion sharing, intercultural understanding, leadership capacity, team management, and PBL-solving proficiency.

Through PBL-solving related to the field of electrical and electronic engineering (electric power and energy, system control
and robot, nanoelectronics and photonics, information and bioelectronics) in a global environment, students are expected to
acquire the ability to communicate relatively simple content information and their opinions to others, to understand relatively
simple content information and opinions transmitted by others, and to actively exercise leadership.
