Class Objectives
/Class Outline Modern science and technology give ample effect on todays life in many aspects. Standing on such context, we will study basic knowledge and technique on “studying materials for making problem solving gears” and “studying materials for energy conversion”. Putting engineering ethics, materials science and engineering and thermodynamics (for energy conversion) as core subjects, we will study 1. Inter-relationships of these subjects and modern society, 2. Finding skills of problems related on the subjects. Then we will find-out a problem to be solved (as studying materials). The classes utilize PBL and AL, discussion with other students, and finally you will give a presentation on the problem you selected.

Class Schedule 1. Orientation: Modern society and Science and Technology.
2. Ethics for Scientist and Engineers.
3. Material sciences and processing technology in a context of modern science and technology 1.
4. Material sciences and processing technology in a context of modern science and technology 2.
5. Basics of thermodynamics (energy conversion) in a context of modern science and technology 1.
6. Basics of thermodynamics (energy conversion) in a context of modern science and technology 2.
7. Midterm discussion.
8. Midterm presentation.
9. Finding a problem to be solved related on the modern science and technology 1.
10. Finding a problem to be solved related on the modern science and technology 2.
11. Discussion on selected problem 1.
12. Discussion on selected problem 2.
13. Proposal of solution 1.
14. Proposal of solution 2.
15. Final presentation.

Requirements

Grading Method Eagerness to attending class: 30%, Presentation: 30%, Report: 40%.

Practical Experience Experienced

Summary of Practical Experience and Class Contents based on it I have experiences of being mechanical design engineer in an industrial machinery company (in Japan), and being teacher in subject of mechanical engineering in Costa Rica as a member of JOCV (Japan Overseas Cooperation Volunteers). The classes in Costa Rica were conducted in Spanish. Thanks to these experiences, I can provide a wide variety of teaching materials fit for participants having distinct backgrounds and knowledge levels.
