Course description
Students improve their specialized knowledge at front-line sites in Japan and overseas in order to put into practice knowledge obtained through lectures, practical training, and laboratory research in the WISE Program. More specifically, problems at sites domestic and overseas are identified, and techniques for solving those problems are examined. Students also gather specialized information and information from adjacent domains needed to solve problems, and learn through real-world practice the teamwork and communication skills needed to solve problems. By building up practical abilities and experience as engineers and researchers, students gain confidence to exhibit their real abilities while making use of the knowledge they have each learned, and this engenders flexibility enabling response suited to the situation. In addition, by recognizing how the findings they have developed in their own research are used on site, students learn things like vision to help spark innovation.
Expected Learning
Learn practical skills and techniques, integrate actual experience with specialized knowledge and research results learned at the university, and clarify sense of purpose toward specialized knowledge and research through training domestic and overseas. As specific goals to be achieved:

① The ability to elucidate one's own problem and pursue research "seeds" based on specific cases where knowledge or techniques learned in pre-learning, previous learning or research, are used in the field domestic and overseas.

② Raise awareness of safety and the environment at front-line sites domestic and overseas, and learn from experience about conduct of research (e.g., research ethics, morals, and sense of responsibility) and the research needs required in actual society.

③ Acquire communication abilities, manners, and other attributes for supporting teamwork with members having diverse differences in culture, age, etc.

④ The ability to bring together learned material as a report, etc., and properly make a presentation or respond to questions.
