I am researching the issues of plastic waste and coastal management using the theories and methods of system science and economics.

Message

I would love to help them become adaptive and creative to the challenges they may face in their research (i.e., graduation thesis). Research is a series of hundreds of problem-solving, per se, from research design to implementation to writing a manuscript, and students need to be adaptive and creative to cope with them. It will be a lifelong asset even after graduation. It is ensured that there is no boundary for what they can learn in the program. Publishing your manuscript in a journal is a possibility.
As the Graduate School of Policy Science aims to propose solutions to policy issues, we welcome students who are keen to contribute to solving policy issues with a policy- and problem-oriented mindset.
