Master in Civil and Environmental Engineering Graduate Program(G30)

Tuition fees are 535,800 JPY per year.

Nagoya University, located in Aichi in Japan's Tokai region, is a comprehensive research university known for the manufacturing and industrial base of the surrounding area and for an academic culture it describes as free and vigorous. The Civil and Environmental Engineering Graduate Program, part of the university's G30 English-medium track, offers a two-year master's degree with an October start. The curriculum covers core areas of civil and environmental engineering, including structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, water resources and hydraulic engineering, transportation systems, and environmental engineering topics such as water and air quality and waste management. Students typically combine advanced coursework with laboratory and computational work, moving toward a research-based master's thesis carried out under faculty supervision, often connected to infrastructure, disaster resilience, or environmental management questions relevant to Japan and other regions. Because the program is delivered in English, it is designed to admit international engineering graduates without requiring prior Japanese-language study, while giving them access to a research university situated in Aichi, one of Japan's principal industrial and manufacturing centers. Graduates are typically prepared for roles in infrastructure planning and design, environmental consulting, construction and engineering firms, and government agencies responsible for public works, as well as for further doctoral research in civil or environmental engineering. The program's location places students close to major industrial and transportation infrastructure, offering practical context for coursework on engineering systems at scale.
