[Humanities]

"Well-balanced thinking and broad knowledge."

General Education's program is designed to nurture in students a flexible, human-oriented, view. This will be necessary for engineers in a changing world.

[Natural Science]

To dvelop the fundamentals for Engineering estudies


The fundamental sciences supporting today's engineering include math, chemistry and biology. Taking these courses at TMIT is indispensable in order to take high-school learning to a higher level of science and technology. These courses are taught to gain "an attitude of seeing subjects objectively and appreciating the process of thinking" as a scientist/engineer. The courses include math, physics, chemistry and biology, which apply mathematical thinking to various fields of technology. The relationship between Natural Science and technology leads to a smooth transition from knowledge to application.
