What do you enjoy about Tsukuba (University of Tsukuba and Tsukuba City)?
As a comprehensive university, the University of Tsukuba offers a wide range of disciplines. Its emphasis on academic freedom allows students to explore and deepen their interests regardless of their major, creating the ideal university experience for many. Moreover, in today’s world of rapidly evolving technologies, the university strives to keep pace not only with the academic world but also with real-world advancements, providing an environment where students can understand and utilize these new technologies—a hallmark of a top-tier university. As for Tsukuba City, trust me, if you have a car (laughs), you’ll grow to love it more and more over time! With facilities and stores comparable to those in Tokyo, this city offers international students from any country the chance to quickly adapt to their new environment. I must admit, when I first moved here from Tokyo, I thought it was a rural area, but now, I never want to leave!
What do you want to accomplish as a student of the University of Tsukuba during your study period?
In academics, as a student in the field of social engineering, I aim to utilize data analysis and optimization techniques to tackle various problems. Through this hands-on learning, I aspire to make optimization one of my strengths. This field allows me to engage with real-world issues from industries such as manufacturing and consulting, giving me early exposure to challenges businesses face today. I believe that in the modern world, optimization skills are highly sought after, and knowledge in social engineering provides a broader perspective when entering the workforce. Regarding extracurricular activities and social contributions, it’s inspiring to play soccer on the same fields where legends like Kaoru Mitoma once played. Additionally, I’ve engaged in internships, volunteer work, and other activities that truly embody the essence of student life. Whatever you envision for your university experience, trust me, at the University of Tsukuba, it’s all possible!
