Research

— Why to do PhD?
A: Because I would like to become a person who can persuade people technically rather than, like at this moment, who is only good at orally communicating with others.

— Why to do Engineering research?
A: Because in my mind, Engineering research is far more interesting than “Science”, and much more practical than “Art”.

— Why to do Chemical Engineering?
A: Roughly speaking, physical research basically does not include biology whose research at this moment rarely utilizes mathematics that always does not necessarily involve chemistry. So to do Chemical Engineering, it is most likely that I can be exposed to all of them. It’s of a great fun and challenge, isn’t it?
