|
| Future Plan |
In order to effectively address environmental problems, a strong background in physics, which is my
main background, along with knowledge in other disciplines such as chemistry, biology and ecology is needed.
Therefore, I am
planning to extend my specialities to these fields in the future.
Ultimately, I would like to work on the artificial restoration and creation of natural environments.

| Messages to Students |
Many environmental problems can not be solved as pure technical problems, but require consideration of
social issues. To realize this approach, the Department of Environmental Studies comprising faculty members of various
disciplines has been initiated at the Kashiwa campus. Students who want to study environmental problems should
bear this feature of environmental problems in mind and study not only basic sciences but also other disciplines
associated with environmental problems.
