<What is Production and Information Systems Engineering?>
As society becomes increasingly diverse, global and more complex, new production methods become crucial. The Department of Production and Information Systems Engineering has planned a new advanced production system to meet the challenge. We offer basic education and research for solving problems of entire production systems including planning, production, maintenance, and implementation. In particular, our objective is to view the production system not just from the old paradigm of the final product, but from the value added to the production process.
 <Study Objectives>
TThe Department of Production and Information Systems Engineering specializes in three major fields: Production Management, Information Engineering, and System Mathematical Engineering. It places emphasis on acquiring capabilities in both theoretical and practical research. Utilizing management and computer technology, our objective is to design technology for production systems that are adaptable to changes in production environment. To this is added the existing material and information flow-centered thinking, the factors of human resource and environmental influences.
