Faculty of Health Sciences

In order to develop medical professionals with up-to-date knowledge and high-level skills, the Faculty of Health Sciences focuses on practice-oriented training. Its curricula have certain advantages over those of medical colleges, such as lectures with problem-oriented content being given by special teaching staff. Furthermore, the Faculty of Health Sciences offers curricula for solving problems faced in the metropolitan area of Tokyo. These courses include home health care study, elderly nursing science, programs of disaster insurance and nursing activities in mega-cities, and programs suitable to each field of medical rehabilitation in an aged society. Another feature of the Faculty of Health Sciences is research education that has close links with research institutes in the Tokyo metropolitan area (e.g. research cooperation with the metropolitan hospitals).

Graduate School of Human Health Sciences

The Graduate School of Human Health Sciences focuses on research related to the health of people living in mega-cities. Research contributing to healthy life and to the realization of a vital and long-lived society is one of the missions of Tokyo Metropolitan University, and it is also one of the essential subjects of the Graduate School of Human Health Sciences. The education of the Graduate School is based on a learning system established by the theories and practical knowledge from a wide range of health science fields. The Graduate School of Human Health Sciences advances education under an interdisciplinary and harmonized research organization, and aims to train students to become high-level practical specialists and cutting-edge researchers in a variety of health-related fields (e.g. special clinical nurses).
