Informal laboratory assignment prior to enrollment

We allow students who have passed the entrance examination for the School of Materials Science to select their laboratory assignment prior to enrollment. Those who would wish to take advantage of this system can do so by following the procedures listed below.

(1) Students send notification of the laboratories they would like to visit to the Office of Administration, School of Materials Science.
     e-mail: ms-secr-m@jaist.ac.jp
     We allow a maximum of three laboratory visits per student.
(2) Teachers from the laboratories that students would like to visit contact the students to arrange a time and date for visits.
(3) Students visit laboratories.
     During the two-month period after the announcement of entrance examination results.
(4) Students and teachers agree on laboratory assignments.
(5) Students submit a report concerning the laboratory they wish to join to the Office of Administration. (E-mail is acceptable.)
     Laboratory teachers submit adviser's informal consent forms to the Dean of the School of Materials Science.
(6) Students receive notification of informal laboratory assignment.

Students are also allowed to determine laboratory assignments after enrollment.
April – May: Laboratory orientation, laboratory open house
June: Evaluation of laboratory assignments, Determination of laboratory assignments
If students who are already informally assigned to laboratories before enrollment have a desire to change, they can participate in this evaluation.
