Master's Course: Electromagnetic Engineering

The University of Fukui offers a Master's Course in Electromagnetic Engineering, a two-year degree taught in English, based in Fukui, with entry points in October and April. The University of Fukui is located in Fukui, a city on the western coast of central Japan near Kyoto and Osaka, and it operates under the policy statement "KAKUCHI, the driving force for the future of people and society." The university has three campuses, Bunkyo, Matsuoka, and Tsuruga, and four schools covering Education, Medical Sciences, Engineering, and Global and Community Studies, with 5,000 students enrolled, accounting for about one-half of the roughly 11,000 university students in the prefecture. A master's program in electromagnetic engineering typically covers the theory and application of electromagnetic fields and waves, including topics such as antenna design, wireless communication systems, electromagnetic compatibility, and the modeling of electromagnetic phenomena in engineering systems. Students combine coursework in electromagnetic theory with laboratory and simulation work, and many programs of this kind culminate in a thesis project carried out under a faculty supervisor, giving students direct experience designing and testing electromagnetic devices or systems. Graduates of electromagnetic engineering programs pursue careers in telecommunications, electronics manufacturing, wireless systems design, and research and development roles at technology companies, or continue toward doctoral study. Completing the degree at the University of Fukui over two years combines specialized engineering training with the university's location on the coast of central Japan, within reach of the Kyoto and Osaka technology and industrial corridor, delivered through an English-language curriculum.
