Nara Women's University established the Faculty of Engineering for the first time as a women's university nationwide from this year, and on the 5th, new students who became first-year students attended the undergraduate briefing session.
Forty-eight people who enrolled as first-year students in the Faculty of Engineering participated in the briefing session held in the hall in Nara City this year.
Hiroyuki Sakaki said, "In the engineering departments nationwide, we have been suffering from the" 10% barrier "that the ratio of women does not exceed 10%. You have the courage to overcome the prejudices and beliefs in the world. I'm looking forward to seeing you in the future. "
Then, more than 20 academic advisors introduced their specialized subjects and called on new students to "learn freely according to their own interests and create their own careers."
The Faculty of Engineering of Nara Women's University has four specialized fields such as information and materials engineering, but unlike the conventional Faculty of Engineering, where the specialized fields are divided from the entrance stage, we have deepened our knowledge widely regardless of the field. So, it is characterized by a curriculum that selects a specialized field from the latter half of 3 years.
New students said, "I chose this university's engineering department because it seemed to be atrophied in an environment with many men. I want to learn various things." "I'm interested in the information field, so I'm going to study. I want to be a useful person in the world. "
Classes for new students will start on the 11th next week.
