Overview of the Graduate School of Integrated Pharmaceutical and Nutritional Sciences<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The School has both a Graduate Program in Pharmaceutical Sciences<\/strong> and a four-year Graduate Program in Pharmacy<\/strong> pursuing research and education in the field of pharmacy, as well as a Graduate Program in Food and Nutritional Sciences<\/strong> and a Graduate Program in Environmental Health Sciences<\/strong> centered on food, nutritional, and environmental sciences.<\/p>\n

These courses involve the collaboration of the Graduate Division of Pharmaceutical Sciences and the Graduate Division of Nutritional and Environmental Sciences, while at the same time each developing research in their own areas, to systematize the cutting-edge interdisciplinary field of \u201cintegrated pharmaceutical and nutritional science\u201d \/ \u201cpharma-food life science\u201d based on their shared understanding of the concepts of \u201cthe common origin of pharma and food\u201d and \u201cpharma-food integration\u201d.<\/p>\n

The foundations of this interdisciplinary field were established by the Pioneering\/Advanced Health-Longevity Science Promotion\/Advancement Hub project (established in 2002 with a grant from the 21st-Century Center of Excellence Program, sponsored by the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT)) and the follow-up Strategic New Developments in Health-Longevity Science Education and Research project (continued in 2007 with a grant from the MEXT Global Center of Excellence Program), with the field fulfilling an important role in the promotion of \u201chealth-longevity science\u201d.<\/p>\n

In order to further advance education and research on pharma-food integration, the School has also established the Graduate Program in Pharmaceutical and Nutritional Sciences<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This reorganization of our education system has made the system more interdisciplinary and led to the addition of advanced courses and practicums related to health-longevity science.<\/p>\n

The doors of the School are always wide open not only to applicants who have studied the fields of pharmacy, food and nutritional, or environmental sciences, but also to other natural science graduates, mature students, and international students with the motivation and ambition to study this interdisciplinary field.<\/p>\n
