Academy for Convergence of Materials and Informatics

In order to foster outstanding individuals, the Institute established the Academy for Convergence of Materials and Informatics (TAC-MI) in April 2019 under the auspices of MEXT’s WISE Program.

The TAC-MI program is a seamless educational program provided throughout graduate learning, which aims to empower students to become multitalented individuals capable of promoting creative, interdisciplinary research in materials science and informatics.
We provide practical education with an eye on social services in collaboration with partners from industry, and will enable students to connect information and materials by utilizing information science and multifaceted thinking, as well as by taking a broad perspective.

*The enrollment examination for the TAC-MI program ended in AY2023. In April 2025, the TAC-MI program will be further developed, and a new interdisciplinary graduate major for doctoral students “Materials and Information Sciences” will be established, and will begin accepting students in April 2025.
