（Comprehensive Abilities）
・Ability to collect information related to peripheral disciplines to complement the knowledge regarding the specialized area, and to consider issues regarding applied biological science from diverse points of view
・Ability to organize own ideas, demonstrate an apprehension of those ideas, logically represent own conclusion orally or in writing, and exchange ideas in English regarding areas of applied biological sciences in which themes in integrated hydrosphere science, applied animal & plant science, food science, and molecular agricultural and life science are discussed from diverse points of view.

Class Objectives
/Class Outline The graduation research in this program (Graduate Thesis) aims to allow the student to dedicate himself/herself to cutting-edge research in order to systematically gain understanding of problems and their background in the field of applied biological science, as well as to acquire comprehensive capabilities while analyzing and considering the obtained results and presenting the results in English both orally and in writing.
Students conduct the graduate research under the guidance of their supervisor. Through their graduation research, students engage with the process consisting of understanding the situation (comprehension  ability  and  intelligence),  identification  of  problems  analysis  ability  and insight), and presentation of the results (proposal and execution ability), and, by doing so, they acquire the capability and skills required to work as experts after their graduation.   Students learn the basic concepts and attitude fundamentally required for research activities, establish a plan for their research, study methods for the research and experiments, and carry out the research under the instruction of their supervisor. Furthermore, students review the results obtained in the research and define targets for the further research. Students experience a series
of research processes in order to have the chance to observe research activities at the cutting edge. They prepare a graduation thesis based on the study results in English and submit it before the specified date. Students are evaluated in the thesis examination.
