Turn Daytime Hours into a "Strength"! Tokyo University of Technology Faculty of Engineering, Second Department (Evening Division) Special Website Launched

The Tokyo University of Technology Faculty of Engineering, Second Department (Evening Division) has launched a special page proposing a new way of learning.

Utilize your daytime hours and study at night. We are disseminating a learning method that fosters growth on two axes: "Day x Night."

We have gathered real voices from students studying in the Second Department of Engineering and widely published information that prospective students want to know, such as daily time schedules, employment records, photo campus tours (taken by the Photography Club of the Second Department of Engineering), and frequently asked questions. This allows for a more concrete image of how to study and campus life in the Second Department of Engineering.

Please take a look!

Faculty of Engineering, Second Department (Evening Division)

TDU Began as an Evening School

In 1907, the "Denki School," an evening school established by two young engineers, Seiichi Hirota and Shinkichi Ougimoto, marked the beginning of Tokyo University of Technology. Subsequently, in 1958, we established Japan's first graduate school for evening students.

Currently, many graduate schools in Japan offer both day and evening classes, but our university was the first in Japan to establish an evening graduate school. Many departments continue to offer day and evening classes, solidifying our pioneering position in providing learning opportunities for students and working professionals who wish to study while working.

Features of the Faculty

Flexible timetable arrangement for a fulfilling student life

Classes taught by the same faculty as the daytime program

Tuition fees are on a "per-credit" basis, approximately half that of the daytime program

A Message from the Dean of the Faculty of Engineering, Second Department

Since taking on the role of Dean of the Faculty of Engineering, Second Department, I have re-examined the attractions of the faculty and have encountered many students who lead fulfilling campus lives in their own way while effectively utilizing their daytime hours. Through the figures of these students, I have been reminded anew of the excellence and potential of the Second Department of Engineering.

We have now launched this special website with the desire for people to get to know the Second Department of Engineering itself anew. The greatest appeal of the Second Department of Engineering is that, while the tuition fees are about half of the daytime program, you can utilize your daytime hours in your own way. "Dual growth," which combines rich daytime activities such as internships, obtaining qualifications, taking courses in other departments, and research activities, with specialized evening education, powerfully expands each individual's potential.

Gain diverse experiences during the day and hone your expertise at night. The Tokyo University of Technology Faculty of Engineering, Second Department, is a flexible and robust learning option that is precisely what is required in the coming era.
