Course description and aims

Students in the Forum of Computing will learn how to plan, practice, and present research in computing by participating actively in research presentations, discussions, and other practical activities. In addition, students will acquire science communication skills related to computing and learn about career development. In this course, students will act as chairperson of the presentation session, in addition to presenting their research topics. Through this role, students are encouraged to recognize relationships between their main research fields and others, and enhance communication skills to join discussions with students from other fields. Furthermore, in interdisciplinary and intercultural discussions with exchange students about research, students learn to make presentations and discussions progress smoothly.

This course aims to help doctoral students acquire the skills in research methods, research presentation, international communication, etc., which they need to acquire before receiving their doctoral degrees through active participation in the class. In particular, this course aims to develop basic skills for active participation in interdisciplinary discussions at research presentations in other fields.

Student learning outcomes

Students will acquire the following skills, particularly the basic skill regarding 3), through attending this course.
1) How to plan and conduct research in general
2) Research presentation (presentation, paper)
3) Skills discussing science, interdisciplinary and international communication skills
4) Career development and science communication

Keywords

Research planning, research execution, research presentation, research discussion, English communication

Competencies that will be developed

Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills Critical thinking skills Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

Active participation is required by students. In each class, content focused on a student's own research presentation and discussions is dealt with, so preparation in advance is required.
