"Urban engineering, unlike other engineering disciplines, does not necessarily have established foundational theories. The fundamental challenge of urban construction lies in determining what to build where, in other words, making various spatial decisions. The space where human activities unfold can be seen as a 2.5-dimensional space, comprising the surface, its slight upper layer, and the underground. In the Urban Space Analysis Laboratory, our research begins with understanding the fundamental characteristics of such spaces, and then extends to the development and enhancement of theories such as location theory, optimal allocation theory, optimal urban form theory, traffic flow and transportation network theory, and more recently, research on planning theories and techniques considering risk concepts. Naturally, to continually verify if such theoretical research correctly grasps the essence of cities, we meticulously investigate and analyze real cities. Our laboratory seeks individuals who resonate to some extent with building the foundational theories of urban engineering and pursuing theories for spatial decision-making. Whether you are someone intending to study at the university level, aspiring to pioneer in new fields as a graduate student, or seeking to acquire foundational theories as a professional, feel free to visit our laboratory (email here) without hesitation. Members of the Urban Space Analysis Laboratory are undergraduate students majoring in Urban Planning in the Faculty of Engineering and graduate students in the Risk and Resilience Engineering degree program of the Faculty of Science and Engineering. For graduate school, there are general entrance examinations held in August (and in the following January and February), as well as admission through recommendation (System Information Engineering Group in July). For detailed information on admissions, please refer to the respective department or research group's page."
