Purpose of class
The purposes of this course are to acquire an ability to summarize and present engineering knowledge learnt from a team activity, and to understand how important basic STEM knowledge is to find and solve issues.
Course description
Students will write and hand in a paper summarizing specific research topics learnt through collaboration with the laboratory members. The paper should include the research background, the social contributions and the social-impact. After that, students will prepare a presentation with a presentation tool such as MS-PowerPoint based on the submitted paper and give a talk in front of the supervisor and the laboratory members. Based on the diversity of different research approaches among various research groups, students will deepen the understanding how basic STEM knowledge is applied to problem-finding and -solving. Through this experience, students will notice the importance of mutual understanding and improve communication skills, which will be used for future graduation thesis research design.

Students who enrolled in 2024 or before will also conduct laboratory rotations, where they will participate the activities in both their own laboratory and the two other laboratories that they visit.
Goals and objectives
  1. Students can write a paper summarizing specific research topics.
  2. Students can give a presentation on specific research topics, taking into account the viewpoint of diversity in research and among researchers.
  3. Students can connect book knowledge to real-world applications, develop an appreciation for research in their field, and demonstrate their achievements in an end-of-semester presentation.

Evaluation method and criteria
More than 60% of the total score is needed for getting the course credit. The details will be explained by the supervisor.
”Daily activities” will be evaluated by the supervisor.
”Presentation in meeting” will be evaluated by the supervisor.
”Presentation at the end of the semester” will be evaluated by the supervisors and the reviewers.

Only for students enrolled in 2024 or before, laboratory rotations are also evaluated on the same items as laboratory activities in their home laboratory. The ratio of the two in the final evaluation is as follows: Home laboratory:Visitied laboratories (2 labs)=1:1
