25course offers optional specializations in Field Crop Science; Horticultural Science; Animal Science; and Farm Work System & Management through a combination of lectures, seminars, and practical works in genetics, breeding, biotechnology, physiology, nutrition, reproductive biology, and management.Course of ForestryThe Forestry course provides students with the integrated forest science, which consists of a variety of studies such as ecology, biogeochemistry, soil science, wildlife, hydrology, informatics, geoinformatics, remote sensing, economics, policy, law, engineering, silviculture, forest and woody biomass utilization, natural disaster prevention, planning and management.Course of Environmental BiologyThe Environmental Biology course provides students with lectures, field studies, and experimental practices on Entomology, Plant Pathology, and Microbial Ecology to improve their basic knowledge and interest of this study field in agriculture. Through seminars and experimental programs for the specific research field, students complete their graduation thesis and give a presentation on their results.Course of Rural EconomicsSince rural areas play a crucial role in providing not only food security but also non-tradable public goods, studying practical solutions to address policy issues faced by rural communities and people is of utmost importance. The Rural Economics course offers a wide range of subjects such as farm management, marketing of farm products, and the development of rural communities.URL:?http://www.norin.shimane-u.ac.jp/?Department of Regional Environmental SciencesThe department aspires to be a premier regional environmental science program that addresses the science, education, and management of regional environments. We especially focus on regional resources such as water, soil, and aquatic organisms in order to achieve a sustainable society with an environmentally sound resource cycle. Our students can obtain the knowledge and skills to evaluate, conserve, and manage regional resources through classroom lectures, laboratory work, and field work in and around Lakes Shinji and Nakaumi, which are representative of the rich and varied nature in Japan. In order to deepen the student’s academic expertise, the department has set up three educational courses of study: Ecology and Environmental Sciences, Environmental Resources Engineering, and Rural Engineering.URL:?http://www.region-environ.shimane-u.ac.jp/?Education and Research Center for Biological ResourcesForests, agricultural land, and marine areas construct a natural landscape for human life which supplies diverse and rich biological products to us. The Education and Research Center for Biological Resources consists of three sections: Forest Science, Agricultural Science and Marine Biological Science.Forest Science has experimental forests, Agricultural Science has experimental farms, and Marine Biological Science has a marine research center. Each section provides typical educational lectures and research activities to the faculty students with the help of fully skilled and technical staff. The center has a policy to contribute to science and social education from the view point that forests, agricultural land and marines are an integrated system.The center offers several lectures about the interface between human activity and natural environments, and also about the biological connection between forests, agricultural land, and marine areas. The lectures are open to students from every course. The center contributes to the understanding of natural life and landscapes through experience and activity in the field sites.URL:?http://www.life.shimane-u.ac.jp/eng/faculty/center.html(English)Faculty of Life and Environmental Science
