*Note:
There are a few ways to get to Funeno-Kagaku or Telecom Center Stations from Tsukuba, but here's one of them:
Take TX from Tsukuba to Akihabara. Take the JR Yamanote Line (outbound) to Shimbashi, then change to Yurikamome Line. Funeno-Kagaku / Telecom Center Stations are about 15 minutes from Shimbashi Station.
You might want to take advantage of a free shuttle bus that goes around the Odaiba area which stops in front of the Miraikan, so you can sightsee in Odaiba with not so much trouble.
