Business Seminars in Eight Leading Companies

Pioneering spirit across new frontiers

Business Seminars in Eight Leading Companies

Business seminars were held in eight companies in academic year 2015 with totally 30 participants: DIC, AGC Asahi Glass, Teijin, Toshiba, Sumitomo Chemical, Nippon Shokubai, Asahi KASEI Chemicals, ADEKA. The 2nd-term Students held interview meetings with industry researchers and personnel managers, attended research presentations, and went on laboratory and factory study trips. Through these activities, they got a clear picture of what kind of doctoral-level personnel were required by industry. They had the chance to learn about a different set of R&D projects than the university projects with which they had become familiar in the early stages of the program’s initial years. This was a meaningful opportunity in terms of the participants’ future career paths.
