Curriculum

Basic and Specialized Education
 All students take common basic subjects in natural sciences, called specialist basic subjects, in Year 1. This is combined with general subjects, foreign languages, and other common subjects outside natural sciences that reinforce basic knowledge in a wide range of fields. When proceeding to Year 2, each student chooses mathematics, physics, chemistry, or geoscience as the field of major. Lectures will now focus on this field, particularly on the basic knowledge required for future research activities. In Year 3, lectures will become more specialized. You can also take subjects from other fields of major to expand your knowledge.

Freshmen Seminars
 The Freshmen Seminars are a required subject for all Year 1 students at the University of Tsukuba. The College of Natural Science will have eight classes of 30 students each year, with classroom teachers advising new students on the new life at university and how to plan studies
