S-cubic Program

Akaiito-Kai

Akaiito-Kai is a place for direct interaction between young researchers, such as Doctoral course students (DCs) and post-doctors (PD) (PDs), and people from companies. Many DCs and PDs are employed in their companies, and we invite laboratory directors (or equivalents) and technical recruitment staff from the companies where they work, along with young researchers, to the venue, where they will directly discuss and interact through short talks by companies and poster presentations by researchers. It is, so to speak, a hands-on version of Hi-System.

Through this meeting, students will gain a deeper understanding of corporate research and development, and by recognizing the importance of basic science in society and the excitement and dynamism of corporate activity, they will broaden their horizons and clarify what they want to achieve in the future.
This will be important for future corporate activities as well as academic activities.

If both parties agree on the same idea, it may be possible to move on to the next step, such as a laboratory tour or Internship. Please exchange contact information with the company representative and move on to the next step after Akaiito-Kai.
