We strive to provide the best training to the next generation leading researchers in the field of sustainability science by instilling the the principles of system approach. Graduate education based on this aim focuses on cultivating rational thinking and mastering scientific methodology. Students will go through the entire cycle of scientific research via the route of problem-finding to problem-sovling and teamworking (Fig. 3), and ultimately approach the readiness to carry out independent research at the forefront of the prospective fields.
