Student Impressions

  • I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your participation as instructors in the Career Lecture. I was amazed to learn that semiconductors are essential components in virtually all electrically powered devices, including smartphones, personal computers, and televisions. I also learned that semiconductors are essential for improving the performance and miniaturization of products, and I was able to deeply understand the necessity of this. I developed a strong interest in semiconductor design. From Mr. Fujita's presentation, I learned the importance of trying various things with a passion and acting based on whether you want to do it, not whether you can do it, and I would like to make use of this in my future life. From now on, I want to actively try things that I've given up on because I think I can't do them, and gain new knowledge and experience.
  • Thank you for conducting the informative Career Lecture. I would like to work in a manufacturing-related job in the future, so I am very happy to have been able to learn more about semiconductors in this course and about the differences between Japanese and foreigners that will be useful in the future. I found the difference between high-context and low-context particularly interesting, and I felt that by paying attention to word choice and the level of explanation when interacting with foreigners, we can communicate smoothly and deepen mutual understanding. In addition, I think that the idea of ​​'making things as simple as possible' that you keep in mind when designing semiconductors is common to all manufacturing, so I would like to keep this in mind in the future.
  • I express my sincere appreciation for the engaging Career Lecture. Mr. Fujita's anecdotes from his experiences in China were captivating. My father was also posted overseas for five years, so I felt a sense of affinity and enjoyed listening to Mr.Fujita's talk. The emphasis on 'cross-cultural understanding' and 'effective communication' provided valuable life lessons that extend beyond the professional realm. I will not forget what I have learned today and will continue to cherish my desire to try new things.
