Research Themes

Research and development that contributes to the region using precision processing and electric field control technology

We are developing technology that contributes to local industries by utilizing precision Engineering and micro droplet mixing technology using electric field control. In particular, we are working on optimizing surface properties and developing non-contact mixing technology, with the aim of applying it to the fields of biotechnology, life sciences, and medicine-engineering collaboration.

Teaching Philosophy

Based on mechanical engineering knowledge, we aim to develop human resources who can contribute to solving social issues through joint research with local companies. In addition to acquiring practical skills, we emphasize teamwork and aim to grow as engineers who will lead the local community.
