Engineer Visa with relevant MS degree but unrelated BS degree

Hello,

While I have seen related questions asked here, I have a slightly unique situation that I could not find a definitive answer for:

I currently hold a bachelors (4yr) degree in pharmacological chemistry as well as a Masters (2yr) degree in Computer Science with roughly 1-2 years of experience in the IT field (The masters program that I was part of was a special cs program for non-cs STEM majors)

While I have been looking for IT related careers in Japan, I was informed that the Engineer Visa requires a “4 year degree” that is related to the field you plan to work in. Since only my 2 year masters degree is directly related to IT, I was wondering if this would cause any issues in getting approval for the Engineer visa or if my combined background in pharmacology/computer science would be acceptable to immigration authorities as-is.

Thank you!
