Most Similar Schools Locally

  • Both schools build their programmes around microbiology and genetics, optics and signal processing, and Tohoku Institute of Technology is the one to compare first within the country, since it is larger, enrolling about 4,000 students against roughly 2,000 here, and is also a private institution.
  • Anyone who wants a second school in the same country with a similar spread of microbiology and genetics, optics and signal processing can consider Maebashi Institute of Technology, and it covers bioinformatics as well, and has almost the same size, at about 2,000 students.
  • Hokkai Gakuen University overlaps with this institution on optics, signal processing and fluid dynamics, so the two are easy to compare, and it covers transportations and geotechnics as well, and is far larger, with about 8,000 students against roughly 2,000 here.
  • A good alternative in the same country is Tohoku Gakuin University, which likewise covers optics, signal processing and fluid dynamics; it covers transportations and geotechnics as well, and is far larger, with about 11,000 students against roughly 2,000 here.
  • For students who like the microbiology and genetics, optics and signal processing focus of this institution but want another option nearby, Hachinohe Institute of Technology fits well: it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral, and is slightly smaller, at about 1,500 students against roughly 2,000 here.

Most Similar Schools Abroad

  • Constructor University brings a Germany setting to the same core fields, microbiology and genetics, optics and signal processing, and it is also a private institution, and teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral.
  • A foreign alternative with a similar emphasis on microbiology and genetics, optics and signal processing is Technische Hochschule Lübeck in Germany, and it is public, whereas this university is private, and teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral.
  • École Normale Supérieure Paris-Saclay, based in France, is built around optics, signal processing and fluid dynamics much like this institution, and it covers aerospace and bioinformatics as well, and has almost the same size, at about 2,000 students.
  • Abroad, ESIGELEC (France) covers optics, signal processing and fluid dynamics in a comparable way, and it is also a private institution and does not run the bachelor's programmes found here.
  • Campus Bio-Medico di Roma (Italy) works on the same fields as this university, chiefly microbiology and genetics, bioengineering and thermodynamics; it covers food science and nanotechnologies as well, and is slightly larger, at about 2,500 students against roughly 2,000 here.

*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”,  “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.

 

**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale: 

  1. known locally
  2. known locally and internationally
  3. is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
  4. is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications

***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
