Tokyo Institute of Technology will hold a symposium "First Face-to-face Conversation-Communication Beginning with Greetings-" on October 2016, 10.Students working on the university's science and engineering student ability discovery and development project handle everything from planning and management to public relations.
At the symposium, we will think about techniques to convey one's specialty in an easy-to-understand manner, how to delve into the story, and tips for excitement through lectures and workshops at academic societies and new environments.Lecturers are Professor Tamio Nakano, a professor at the Tokyo Institute of Technology's Liberal Arts Research and Education Institute and a workshop planning producer, and Professor Kayoko Nohara at the Faculty of Environmental and Social Sciences and Engineering, Tokyo Institute of Technology.Professor Nohara conducts research and education such as science communication using the theory of translation of languages and symbols, and fusion of science and technology with art / design.
The "Science and Engineering Student Ability Discovery and Development Project" is sponsored by the university for undergraduate students.The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology "Science and Mathematics Student Support Project" was taken over from 19 to 22. For the purpose of "cultivating creativity and fostering international leaders," 40 diverse students, including high school-university collaboration special selections, are selected and a program for ability discovery and ability development is being implemented.
Specifically, the 1st and 2nd graders are in the "ability discovery stage" and participate in international meetings, university creativity programs, special lectures and symposiums. Third and fourth graders in the "capacity development stage" will also participate in domestic and overseas academic societies and internships, and participate in early laboratory affiliations.Ultimately, these will lead to improvements in the university's overall education system.
