Course description and aims
This course is designed to give students specialist knowledge in their field of study as well as basic knowledge in a broader area, with a focus on research assignments that are decided through discussions between students and academic supervisors. The students will incorporate this knowledge into their own research themes to carry out research, participate in academic discussions, and give presentations of their findings. The aims of the abovementioned process are not only to develop the students’ skills in such areas as literature search and and techniques for data collection and analysis, but also to acquire comprehension skills, linguistic proficiency, the ability to present ideas and arguments effectively in academic writing and through discussions.
Graduate education at Tokyo Tech is comprised of coursework education based on a structured curriculum and laboratory work characterized by individualized instruction. Research Seminar courses are central to the laboratory- based education, and active learning is strongly encouraged. By enrolling in Research Seminar courses and pursuing research activities, students are expected to develop expertise in their field of study and gain skills that are sought after by society.
Students need to enroll Seminars in Life Science V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, and X in this order.
Student learning outcomes
Students will acquire the following abilities in stages by completing Seminars in Life Science V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, and X:
1. Highly pofessional expertise for identifying fundamental scientific and technical issues in the field of Life Science.
2. Ability to solve various practical problems based on broad knowledge and skills in science and technology.
3. Ability to freely utilize expertise to provide creative ideas.
4. Ability to lead research and development projects and open up a new field with a global perspective.
5. Excellent ability to explain concepts logically, develop arguments, and put them in writing.
