Course description
You will learn the experimental techniques and research planning methods required for research, how to proceed with research and how to read related research papers, and presentation methods in research, while learning about the various research projects in each laboratory.
Purpose of class
Prior to the thesis Research conducted in the fourth grade, the aim is to understand the contents of research projects in each laboratory and to acquire basic experimental techniques. This supports the smooth start and practice of each student's research in the thesis research at the 4th grade.
Goals and objectives
  1. Read and understand research-related papers.
  2. Understand the contents of the research-related papers and make others understand them through presentations.
  3. Acquire the experimental techniques required for research.
  4. The results of the experiments performed can be reproduced.
  5. Summarize the experimental results in a report and let others understand them in the presentation.

Evaluation method and criteria
Evaluate the total score of presentations and reports in each laboratory. Attendance will taken every time at the start. Attendance points will not be included in evaluation, but if there is no reason to be late, you will be absent. In addition, explanations from faculty members in each laboratory will be given as necessary.
Feedback on exams, assignments, etc.
ways of feedback specific contents about "Other"
Feedback in the class
Textbooks and reference materials
There is no common textbook / reference book throughout. If necessary, explanations will be given by the faculty member in each laboratory.
Prerequisites
Nothing in particular
Office hours and How to contact professors for questions
  • Please select a faculty member to ask questions and consult for each content since each laboratory has different experiments in charge. Be sure to make an appointment in advance.
