Graduate School of Health Sciences

Health Sciences（Doctoral Course）

Department of Nursing Science

This field is based on the education and research of the faculty and first semester of the postdoctoral course. In order to train educators and researchers who can maintain and promote human health, independent effort in original and interdisciplinary research on quality of life (QOL) improvement, and wide-range knowledge and high-level expertise and morality are carried out.
　Specifically, focus is placed on high expert knowledge and morality in health, medicine, and welfare fields centered on nursing science, and research is developed from an academic and global viewpoint as educators and researchers. We seek evidence on the efficacy of nursing intervention for health maintenance and promotion, and QOL improvement, and work to establish theories on nursing science by coordinating with multi- health, medicine, welfare disciplines.
