The Master's program
This program contains six programs and 13 departments. Emphasizing consistency with the specialized education students receive at the undergraduate level, the master’s program builds on the basic undergraduate education in the student’s field of specialization to teach the specialized subjects of each department. The master’s program structure enables students to acquire a broad range of relevant knowledge, from basic to applied science. Once students compile the studies they have conducted over two years (standard term of study) into their master’s thesis and complete the master’s program, they will earn either a Master of Science or Master of Engineering degree.
Doctoral studies
There are six courses within the Program in Science and Engineering. This program is designed to allow students to build on the foundations of basic and applied knowledge acquired through their master’s program to increase their depth of knowledge in their field of specialization and to conduct interdisciplinary research that combines the topics of science and engineering. What is especially notable is the Course in Joint Frontier Studies, which includes five sub-courses. These are taught either by professors who concurrently teach two of the key research themes of Saitama University, “Molecular Environmental Science and Engineering” and “Synthetic Information Biology,” or by guest instructors from partner research institutions. Once students compile the studies they have conducted over three years (standard term of study) into their doctoral dissertation and complete the doctoral program, they will earn either a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D), Doctor of Sciences, or Doctor of Engineering degree.
There exist 6 programs and 13 courses in master's program.

A student can apply for "Course term extension program"
to extend the term to study/research in the graduate school,
if it is difficult to satisfy the requirements for program completion within the
standard term because of some reasen such as she/he is an employee.
