Six interdisciplinary focus areas of TJU in research and education are identified as follows:

  1. Earthquake Disaster Science,
  2. Informatics and Digital Technologies,
  3. Energy and Environment,
  4. Natural Sciences,
  5. Fundamental Life Sciences,
  6. Humanities and Social Sciences,

The first and second focus areas are identified as priority focused areas.

These areas, which were largely articulated and decided upon at the first meetings of the university council, correspond to specific interdisciplinary education and research programs.

Moreover, extensive research and benchmarking were performed to support these priorities through identifying the research and technological trends and examining leading universities around the world and in Türkiye and Japan.

All of these areas can be further developed in the consecutive development stages of TJU through exploring the national science and technology priorities for Türkiye and Japan as well as the multi-disciplinary research and education areas on global scientific platforms.
