Undergraduate Graduation Research
In the graduation research, fourth-year students of the undergraduate course can join their desired laboratory and complete their thesis in a year, under the guidance of an instructor. A graduation research presentation will be held in February, which will serve as an opportunity to present the results obtained in the year.
Here are a few examples of the researches currently being conducted at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (2018).
Structural Department
- Effect of impact load conditions on the impact fatigue damage of concrete
- Research on the impact characteristics of chipped rubber mixed with concrete
- Experimental study on the buffering effect of honeycomb composite structures subjected to proximity explosion
- Experimental study on the permeable erosion control embankment reinforcement method
- Basic research on people who have difficulty escaping on their own in the event of a direct earthquake beneath the capital
Geotechnical Department
- Experimental study on granular material visualization
- Experimental study on reinforced soil structures
- Experimental study on the dynamic behavior of ground structures
- Research on the wide-area slope stability evaluation method considering the influence of rainfall and earthquake

Hydraulic Department
- Experimental study on back-step flow based on momentum theorem
- Spatiotemporal variation characteristics in light blue along the coast of Japan using artificial satellite data
- Application of the model for outdoor tank drift by tsunami to the 2011 Tohoku tsunami and Kesennuma Bay
