Curriculum

Basic Materials Informatics

In this lecture, we will outline how to combine material science and information science, to lead them to researches containing various expert knowledge, and to open up a new field. Researches currently carried out at university will be explained examples.

Topics change every lesson. Remote class from Okayama and Suzukakedai lecture rooms.
