Associate Professor Kohtake

On September 5, the institute hosted a debate on the next generation of "super engineers," which also provided an opportunity to discuss the Graduate School of System Design and Management (SDM)’s educational principles, the career paths open to students and the research taking place at the institute.

On the program were presentations from Professor Yoshiaki Ohkami, Director of the SDM Research Institute ("Systems Design and Management that Fuses Arts and Sciences"), Professor Shoichi Sasaki ("The Future of Mobility Systems"), Professor Hidekazu Nishimura ("Model-Based Engineering"), Professor Tetsuro Ogi ("Digital Museum Using VR Technology") and Associate Professor Naohiko Kotake of the Keio Advanced Research Centers ("Satellite-based Seamless Indoor and Outdoor Positioning Information System").

During the panel discussion, workshop participants asked numerous questions about the next generation of mobility and model-based engineering, VR technology and the career paths of SDM students. As the discussion progressed, the outlines of the next generation of "super engineers" began to take shape.
