(ICTG class starts in Q3. Prof. Kurokawa is in charge of the class.)
The University of Aizu offers a UNIX-based computers and networking system to students in exercise rooms. Most lectures are designed to be held in this computing environment. In this course, students learn usage of the computing environment in the University of Aizu at first.  They then learn more generarized knowledge on computer and network systems, document preperation and handling, principal and mannar on communication via network, various tools for programming and data processing. The knowledge learned in the course is fundamental for professional activities after graduation from the university.

(ICTG class starts in Q3. Vice president and others are in charge of the class.)
In this lecture, we primarily provide stories from various perspectives by experts in various fields about computers, understand the contents of academic fields of computer science and engineering and the significance of learning computer science and engineering In an era when computers are used in society at large, we learned from various perspectives what computer science and engineering is expecting from computer science and engineering, such as what society expects for computers, the risk to society that computers bring, etc. Make it useful for course design. Unlike many other subjects, this lecture gives lectures to experts in various fields. Specifically, in addition to the president, department head, responsible professor of each field / track, we also have the opportunity to talk about external experts.

*To enroll in this course, students must first register to the Creativity Development Program through the dedicated registration form.

Creativity is the ability to generate new and useful things. It is especially indispensable in generating original and novel ideas. Each person has the talent to innovate. To demonstrate creativity, however, it is necessary to possess knowledge of the creative process and supporting methods. It is also necessary to regularly practice in the use of that knowledge.
 In this course, beginners of creative activity will work on specially tailored themes to experience and understand the nature of creativity and its process through lectures and practical exercises. Students will work in groups while assisting each other in a collegial atmosphere. In the practical exercises, student groups will work on themes taken from practical existing problems and propose novel and useful solutions/ideas.
This course is an intensive course offered for several consecutive days during the summer holidays. Depending on the theme of the exercise, the class will be held at an off-campus facility. Attendance of all days is required. Furthermore, capacity is limited depending on the theme and venue. Please be advised that in case applicants exceed the capacity, lecturers will select students considering their enrollment in related courses, etc.
  For AY2021, this course is scheduled to be conducted from Aug. 17 to Aug. 20. The schedule may shift slightly depending on requirements of the venue. The fixed schedule will be announced by end of June.
