Curriculum(Master’s Program)<\/h2>\n

The curriculum consists of 3 course-types:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Theories of Fine Art and Design<\/th>\nThese courses study art and design from a theoretical point and aim to deepen knowledge and improve skills through discussions and debates as well as lectures.<\/td>\n
Practical Fine Art and Design<\/th>\nThese courses are based on the following three themes: [The City and Environment], [Production and Development] and [Man and Design], which are conducted as seminars, fieldwork, case studies and workshops. Through these more active practice-based classes, students interact and work with current issues in the industrial world and society.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\nSpecialized Studies Electives<\/th>\nIn these courses, supervision is given according to each student\u2019s research topics.
\nThe courses are divided into 2 types: the \u201cPractice Research\u201d and \u201cGeneral Research\u201d course. The former type aims to improve technical and practical skills, while the latter aims to compile the student\u2019s research and art practices in the form of a master\u2019s thesis. A student\u2019s thesis committee will consist of 1 main advisor and another secondary advisor. Step-by-step guidance will be given to the student primarily by his\/her main advisor.\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

    Design: Comprehensive Research\u2160\u30fb\u2161\u30fb\u2162<\/th>\nFocused on individual guidance from the adviser, candidates are trained to develop their technical, research, and theoretical skills. Guidance is provided according to the research themes of each candidate toward the writing of the Ph.D. Dissertation or Ph.D Work and Thesis.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    \nDesign: Specialized Practice\u2160\u30fb\u2161
    \nFine Art: Specialized Practice\u2160\u30fb\u2161
    \nDesign Education: Specialized Practice\u2160\u30fb\u2161\n<\/th>\n    		Focused on individual guidance from the adviser, candidates are trained to develop their skills in understanding their research within a social and global perspective.
    \nThrough comparative analyses and practical exercises, candidates also become attentive to the contributions their research make to society thus nurturing a more active engagement with society. This, in turn, will result in the overall development of the candidate’s research abilities. <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Design: Specialized Project<\/th>\nThe advisory committee deliberates on the student’s research theme, progress, and prospect. Should the committee find the research theme and progress is substantial, the student participates in the Design: Specialized Project as a researcher and instuctor, developing her\/his theoretical and practical skills for the research.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Design: Specialized Theory<\/th>\nThe Zokei University’s education in research is considered a contribution toward society.
    \nOne of the university’s mission to think of the direction research must take for university graduates of both Zokei and other insitutes, as well as exchange students can understand the spirit of “pursuing and realizing creative research that is for the development of society.”<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n
