    Courses
    Advanced Studies on Material Dynamics,
    PhD Course
    In this course, research will be conducted to clarify the relationship between the dynamics of nutrient elements in the pedosphere and the growth of plant symbiotic microorganisms and plants. Connect the knowledge and skills gained in this course to your doctoral dissertation.
    Advanced Nutrient Dynamics,
    MA Course
    This course introduces principles of the latest research topics in material cycle and the role of microorganisms in agriculture, and discusses how to resolve the research problems.
    Soil Fertility and Plant Nutrition,
    UG: 3rd year
    Synthetic fertilizers have increased yields, but overfertilization has caused soil degradation and environmental pollution. This course promotes awareness of the need for fertilizers to crop growth and those effects on environment.
    Material Cycle in Environment,
    UG: 2nd year
    The world population is estimated to reach 10 billion some time in this century. There has been great concern about food insecurity, and depletion of resource and energy source. Our planet also has environmental problems such as pollution, global warming, acid rain, and so on. The problems might sign that the material cycling system isn't functioning properly. This course provides an overview of the relations between humans and the natural environment from the point of view material cycles.
