Appendix
1. The Laboratory of Agricultural Bio-System Engineering constitutes the Research Group of Bioresource and
Environmental Engineering, together with five other laboratories, namely, Land and Water Management, Soil
Conservation, Ecological and Environmental Physics, Vehicle Robotics, and Agricultural and Food Process
Engineering.
2. The successful applicant will partly or fully give the lectures listed below, for which the Laboratory of
Agricultural Bio-System Engineering is responsible. The laboratory participates in “the Global Education Program
for AgriScience Frontiers” and also provides education only in English.
(1) Subjects in the Graduate School of Agriculture: Advanced Agricultural Production Engineering, Advanced
Organic Material Cycles, Advanced Food and Bioproduction Engineering, Study on Agricultural Science I &
II, Seminar on Agricultural Science I & II, and others
(2) Subjects in the School of Agriculture: Agricultural Bio-System Engineering, Organic Waste Engineering,
Seminar in Bioresource and Environmental Engineering I-IV, Graduation Thesis, and others.
(3) Subjects in general education: Environment and People, and others.
3. The Laboratory of Agricultural Bio-System Engineering is engaged in theoretical research and technological
development related to the circular production, utilization, and recycling of biomass resources, as well as
sustainable agricultural and resource utilization systems. The overarching aim of this research is to contribute
to the creation of a sustainable, low-carbon society based on material cycles. The laboratory undertakes
comprehensive education and research initiatives grounded in these efforts. Currently, the laboratory is
consisted of one Professor (who will retire in March 2027), one associate professor, and one assistant professor
as faculty members.
