Most Similar Schools Locally
- Kyoto Tachibana University sits close to this university on optics, signal processing and fluid dynamics; it covers civil engineering and chemistry as well, and is slightly larger, at about 5,000 students against roughly 4,000 here.
- Both schools build their programmes around ergonomics and UX, optics and signal processing, and Takushoku University is the one to compare first within the country, since it is larger, enrolling about 10,000 students against roughly 4,000 here, and is also a private institution.
- Anyone who wants a second school in the same country with a similar spread of optics, signal processing and fluid dynamics can consider Fukui University of Technology, and it also offers doctoral programmes and covers transportations and geotechnics as well.
- In terms of fields, Tohoku Institute of Technology is the nearest neighbour, with optics, signal processing and fluid dynamics again at the core; it also offers doctoral programmes and covers transportations and quality as well.
- Where this university leans on optics, signal processing and fluid dynamics, Aichi Institute of Technology does the same, and it covers aerospace and transportations as well, and is larger, enrolling about 6,000 students against roughly 4,000 here.
Most Similar Schools Abroad
- State University of Applied Sciences in Racibórz in Poland shares the optics, signal processing and fluid dynamics orientation of this university, and it is public, whereas this university is private, and runs the same bachelor's and master's programmes.
- In Poland, Higher School of Technology in Katowice teaches much the same core subjects, optics, signal processing and fluid dynamics, and it runs the same bachelor's and master's programmes and covers sound engineering and transportations as well.
- Seen from abroad, Hochschule Magdeburg-Stendal (Germany) is a close relative on subject matter, since optics, signal processing and fluid dynamics are central to both, and it is public, whereas this university is private, and runs the same bachelor's and master's programmes.
- For a study option in Germany with a comparable spread of optics, signal processing and fluid dynamics, Technische Hochschule Ulm is the reference point: it runs the same bachelor's and master's programmes and covers metrology and transportations as well.
- On content, ISD Flaubert in France and this institution are close, as both teach ergonomics and UX, optics and fluid dynamics; it covers transportations and quality as well, and is public, whereas this institution is private.

*: 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 …).
