Fong, Izumi and Ishizaki completed master or bachelor course and get master/bachelor degree successfully. Congraturation!
They will work in private companies. I wish experiences in master/bachelor course will help and support their lives anytime and anywhere.
March is happy, delightful, but a little sad season for University faculties in Japan.

I always give one message to all graduates. I really wish my message will come true in the future.

Although the conference was organized well, we were regretfully disappointed for poor management of poster presentation session. Due to inappropriate session time setting and less annuncement, it decreased audience and thus spoiled educational effect on presentation training for students.
