The Environmental Policy Lab studies environmental policy, focusing on concrete policies and methods for companies and other businesses, NGOs, and individuals. The lab also communicates and proposes what it has learned from its research. Its education and research are wide-ranging, from theory to field surveys to projects on creating concrete policies. The lab belongs to the Department of Social Environment, Graduate School of Environmental Studies.

The Environmental Economics Lab applies theories and methods from economics and management to issues such as environmental policy, natural resource management, and sustainable corporate activity. In economics, the lab studies theoretical economics and econometrics, and approaches problems related to cities, regions, and the environment from both microeconomic and macroeconomic perspectives. In management, in addition to theoretical research on organization theory, the lab uses field surveys and interviews to investigate strategic and organizational issues of companies and NPOs, as well as environment-related issues. Students in the lab can earn a degree in either “Economics” or “Environmental Studies.”

The Environmental Law and Politics Lab brings together researchers in law and political science to tackle environmental problems from both legal and political angles. In law, the lab aims to build foundational theory of environmental law and international environmental law while exploring what kind of law is needed to solve specific environmental problems. In political science, it studies social and political problems surrounding the human environment. Students in the lab can earn a degree (master's or doctoral) in either “Law” or “Environmental Studies.”

The Sociology Lab studies sociology, which clarifies social phenomena and social problems by focusing on the ways people relate to one another. With a history dating back to the arrival of Professor Kiyoji Honda in 1949, the lab has grown into a leading research center in both theory and empirical research. Building on the traditions and diverse currents of sociology, the lab aims to develop global sociological theory originating in Asia, and investigates regions in Japan and abroad and diverse fields using qualitative and quantitative methods. The lab welcomes students who wish to go on to graduate school, and is described as a lively, warm lab with peers who discuss with and inspire one another.

The Geography Lab (Department of Geography) conducts education and research across a wide range of fields in human geography and physical geography. The department began in 1950 as the Geography Chair of the Department of History in the Faculty of Letters. It now belongs to the Faculty of Letters at the undergraduate level and to the Department of Social and Human Environment, Graduate School of Environmental Studies, at the graduate level. Students can freely choose their research topics from fields such as human geography in general and geomorphology. The Graduate School of Environmental Studies also has faculty in climatology, meteorology, hydrology, and other fields, so students can receive broad guidance in collaboration with other departments.

The Multiphysics Simulation Division is a division of the Center for Integrated Research of Future Electronics, which is affiliated with the Institute of Materials and Systems for Sustainability, and its faculty specialize in computational science. Associate Professor Yoshimatsu studies turbulence, using a method called wavelet analysis to examine the structure of turbulence and information reduction. Assistant Professor Araidai specializes in computational materials science and the electronic properties of surfaces and interfaces, and uses first-principles calculations to study materials for electronic devices and two-dimensional materials such as germanene.

The High-Frequency Circuits Lab (Hara Lab) studies how to improve the performance and efficiency of microwave and millimeter-wave circuits used in radio transmitter and receiver sections, including antennas. In high-capacity, high-speed wireless communication and in energy transmission using radio waves, the challenge is to achieve both comfort and lower energy consumption. The lab aims to bring out performance through new circuit architectures and design methods, rather than relying on device miniaturization alone. In the research introduction poster on the website of the Institute of Materials and Systems for Sustainability, the lab is presented as "CIRFE, Microwave Lab."

Markus Pristovsek, Project Professor

The Pristovsek Lab studies new uses of gallium nitride (GaN), a semiconductor. GaN is most widely used in light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and the lab explains that GaN electronic devices could enable smaller, more efficient power converters. GaN is also at the core of 5G communications, and the lab explains that future 6G will not work without new GaN electronic devices. The lab is a research group in the International Visiting Division of the Center for Integrated Research of Future Electronics (CIRFE) at the Institute of Materials and Systems for Sustainability, and its website is written in English.

The lab mainly uses nuclear emulsion technology, a photographic film that can record elementary particles, to study elementary particles, including neutrinos, which are tied to how the universe came to be. It also works on searching for unknown particles that are dark matter candidates and on seeing through huge structures using cosmic rays (cosmic-ray muon radiography). The lab also independently develops the photographic emulsion that is the raw material of nuclear emulsion plates, and track readout systems that read the tracks inside the plates. The lab's website goes by the name "F Lab (Fundamental Particle Lab)", and this introduction is based on text published in 2012.
