Tohoku University is a Japanese national university that was founded in 1907. It is located in Sendai, Japan and is considered one of the most prestigious universities in the country. The university has five campuses: Katahira, Kawauchi, Aobayama, Seiryo and Amamiya. It is ranked among Japan’s leading universities and is considered one of the top universities in the world.

Department of Computer and Mathematical Sciences is engaged in research in the area of information sciences for the future. Our research subjects include basis of information sciences such as computer sciences and software sciences, next-generation computational sciences for super-parallel computing and large-scale high-speed computing, and a wide range of applications of information sciences associated with mathematical sciences. Also we are devoted to developing future leaders of those fields. Our department consists of the foundation part and the cooperation part. The foundation part is made up with four sections: Mathematical Structures, Applied Mathematical Science, Computation Science and Systems, and Software Science and Systems. Those disciplines have existed from the very beginning of the GSIS. The cooperation part is divided into five sections: Logic for Information Science, Communication Theory, High Performance Computing, Information Security, and Environmental Informatics.
