Undergraduate Thesis Research 1

MASUDA Yukihiro
Course description
The subject of “Environmental System” is extensive and deeply related to human life and society. The course requires students to study their own research subject and write a thesis or complete design drawings under the direction of a supervising professor and associate supervisor.
Purpose of class
Students are expected to choose and set their own research subject regarding architecture, urbanism, environmental studies, social science studies. Students should develop the idea, knowledge, technique collected in 4 years of study in the colledge, write a thesis or complete design documents and make a presentation.
Goals and objectives
  1. Summarizes studies and educational experiences in the college, set out the appropriate research subject
  2. Execute logical thinking through assumption, research, experiment, and inspection on the selected subject
  3. Draw up an appropriate research summary on the subject and conclusion. Make a clear presentation to the audience including supervising professors
  4. Active and autonomous research attitude should be expected.
  5. Students are able to evaluate the themes and results of their own research not only from the perspective of their area of specialization, but also from global, cross-disciplinary, and interdisciplinary perspectives, using systems thinking to evaluate multiple aspects and explain the significance of their work.

Environmental Infrastructure Laboratory
Research Content
The aim of Building/Urban Environmental Engineering is to ensure people live and work in a safe, comfortable, efficient, and healthy environmental space. At the Building Environmental/Urban Environmental Engineering Laboratory, studies are underway to outline the ideal “environmental infrastructure”suitable for supporting the building and urban environments from the perspectives of both “social capital” (i.e., building equipment, urban installations, etc.) and “natural capital” (i.e., natural elements). We are engaged in research in the areas outlined below from an environmental engineering perspective—i.e., focusing on systems and mechanisms that support building and urban environments, and studying the mechanism by which such environments are created—and from the perspective of facilities engineering—i.e., system design of environmental control to achieve a desired condition. Through these activities, our laboratory actively promotes a hands-on approach to contributing to the local community, which has a high degree of social significance.
