The vision and purpose of the Graduate School of Science and Engineering are to develop creative and global-minded individuals who will be well versed in the basics of science and engineering with advanced professional skills and flexible application skills, and value the humanistic founding principles of the university, with the view to the future of the fields of information, life, and the environment, which are the new frontiers of the 21st century's science and technology. As an educational program for this purpose, we offer master's and doctoral programs as well as funding programs to support students' research activities. This education program is implemented in three majors: Information Systems Science, Biosciences, and Environmental Engineering for Symbiosis.

1. We offer a variety of courses through which students can further deepen a wide range of basic skills and enhance their expertise based on the basic studies at the bachelor's program, as well as acquire the ability to apply and develop their learning.
2. The process of guidance for master's theses implements practical research activities to develop students' ability to independently find research agenda and solve problems. The program also aims to nurture engineers and researchers who can position and organize their research based on logical thinking and push forward with research.
3. We encourage our students to widely disseminate their research results both inside and outside Japan and cultivate a high level of logical explanation skills. We also foster engineers, researchers, and educators who will always be highly aware of the international competitiveness of research.

1. Students will acquire surrounding knowledge of advanced specialized knowledge in the field of research while receiving practical education through specific research in their major field, thereby cultivating the planning, preparing, and implementing abilities that are necessary for research and development.
2. In the course of guidance for doctoral theses, students will acquire the abilities to lead others in identifying problems to be solved, examining solution methods, and examining feasibility concerning research. We will also nurture researchers who can take leadership to organize a team to plan and implement globally competitive studies.
3. Through planning research and explaining results, students will develop comprehensive skills to consider the social significance of the research, its contribution to and impact on society, and ethicality. 

1. Based on the basic studies at the bachelor’s program, students acquire specialized knowledge and to advance expertise in the fields of "Biomolecular Sciences," "Cellular Biosciences," "Bioinformation Science," or "Functional Biosciences,” while developing their basic skills. 
2. The process of guidance for master’s theses implements practical research activities to develop students’ ability to think logically and formulate research strategies to solve problems autonomously.
3. Through presentations and discussions, students develop the ability to explain logically and communicate effectively. Most of courses are offered in English to cultive internationally-minded individuals. 

1. By acquiring knowledge not only in specific research fields but also in Biosciences in general and cultivating an overview of life phenomena, we will foster researchers who have the ability to discover and solve original research problems.
2. To develop ingenuity, students acquire methods and ways of thinking in Bioscience fields that differ from their field of research.
3. Cultivate the ability to think deeply and explore the truth.
4. Cultivate the ability to write papers and make presentations in English, and develop researchers who can work on the international stage.
5. Training researchers with a sense of ethics and responsibility.

1. Students who have the basic skills and motivation to realize the ideals and objectives of the Graduate School of Science and Engineering.
2. Students who respect the Soka University Founding Principles and aim to contribute to society by providing others with the results of their studies.
3. Students who challenge the creation of new values with an enterprising spirit, and who will make tireless efforts for self-improvement.
