Introduction
In recent years, various problems, such as the loss of natural ecosystems, frequent disasters, depopulation and industrial decline, become serious in watersheds, which have headwaters in mountainous areas, because of the climate change and transformation of society.
All of these problems are caused by the relationship between the natural environment, such as ecosystems and material cycles, and human activities, such as society and economy.
It is necessary to take a comprehensive view of the entire watershed in order to solving such problems.
Therefore, the Interfaculty Graduate School of Mountain Watershed develops human resources who can solve the problems of watersheds by conducting education and research in a wide field of study, including natural, economic, and social sciences.
Education
The Interfaculty Graduate School of Mountain Watershed conducts interdisciplinary education, including natural, economic, and social sciences.
As a result, our graduate school develop experts who has knowledges in natural science as well as the ability to build consensus, and a perspective on the economy and society.
We develop human resources who can solve the problems in mountain watershed, such as the loss of natural ecosystems, frequent disasters, depopulation and industrial decline.
