Most Similar Schools Locally
- Both schools build their programmes around ergonomics and UX, optics and signal processing, and Hiroshima City University is the one to compare first within the country, since it is smaller, enrolling about 2,000 students against roughly 3,000 here, and is also a public institution.
- Also strong in ergonomics and UX, signal processing and project management, Iwate Prefectural University makes a sensible second look at home; it covers sound engineering and industrial design as well, and is smaller, enrolling about 1,200 students against roughly 3,000 here.
- Where this institution leans on ergonomics and UX, optics and signal processing, University of Aizu does the same, and it is also a public institution, and teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral.
- University of Electro-Communications offers a comparable education in ergonomics and UX, optics and signal processing: it runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes, and covers bioinformatics and nanotechnologies as well.

*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.
- Artificial Intelligence (AI), Cybersecurity, Human-Computer Interaction, Information Technology (IT), Machine Learning, Robotics, Software, User-Centered Design
*: 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:
- known locally
- known locally and internationally
- is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
- 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 …).
