概要
The course is aimed at enhancing core competency in the doctoral dissertation research field and at enabling students to explain the purpose and significance of their research in relation to current research trend. Students attend tutorial under a triplet research supervision scheme: one academic principal supervisor and two co-supervisors. In addition, the course trains students in each aspect of research, namely, comprehension, analysis, and implementation, which require a higher level of competency, through discussions with supervisors. The course helps students acquire consensus-building skills and the capacity to adapt to diverse value systems and environments, while leveraging new ideas, knowledge, and information obtained through meaningful academic exchanges with researchers not only in their specialized fields but also from other disciplines, into the design of their doctoral dissertation research.
Interdisciplinary Seminars consist of the three parts noted below:

1. Tutorial under Triplet Research Supervision Scheme
Students take seminars tutorially by academic principal supervisor. While holding regular seminars with an academic principal supervisor, students attend seminars provided by co-supervisor or laboratory work. Students are expected to actively engage in discussions with the co-supervisors and research laboratory members and in communicating their own experience, analytical approach, and ideas.

2. Workshop
Discussions with the principal supervisor and the two co-supervisors will be held to help students clarify the academic contributions of their research, narrow down their research themes, and improve their doctoral dissertation research plans in consideration of opinions of faculty members in other disciplines.

3. Academic Literacy provided by the three universities (TUFS, UEC and TUAT)
The lecture trains students that enable to acquire the basic skills on scientific writing, presentation and literacy on modern technology at the university level.

At the end of the course, students will prepare to write a report regarding their research concept for the collaborative humanities and sciences colloquium as part of the "Advanced Practicum in Sustainability Research I" Course. Remote videoconference systems or other media may be used as necessary.

Subject: English Discussion Training Class
Instructor: SUZUKI, Steven Taro

Summary and goals of the course:
The course is designed to improve presentation skills in academic and professional contexts. In order to achieve this goal, higher-level intellectual skills will be developed and improved through engaging in, and performing various tasks and discussions. A natural by- product will be students improving their analytical, rhetorical, and critical thinking skills. These skills are abstract and difficult to measure; however, they are important in terms of being able to collaborate and cooperate effectively with colleagues, superiors, subordinates, and clients in future professions.

Overview of the course:
Students will focus on learning important skills for presenting at professional conferences, and also how to adroitly handle Q&A sessions. A short presentation will be conducted by each student in every class. The presentations will start on a basic level, and will increase in analytical and rhetorical difficulty as the course progresses. The course will conclude with a basic full length presentation with a Q&A session performed by each student.
