Course description and aims

This lecture is intended for students enrolled before 2023. If you wish to take this class, please contact instructor (Takao or Suzuki) by email in advance. Students enrolling in 2024 or later cannot take this course.

In this class, students will gain an understanding of the entire master's research process and acquire the basic research skills necessary for their research activities. After confirming what a thesis or science is, students will understand a series of research processes such as selection of a subject/object, review of previous research, selection of methodology/methods, creation of a research plan, making up a structure, data collection and analysis, writing, and presentation, using their own research as material.
The aim is for students to understand the research process and to formulate their own research interests into a research plan. In addition, through discussions among students from different fields of expertise, the course aims to broaden their perspectives and cultivate their communication skills to communicate their research to people from different fields of expertise.
