Preparing the research plan and presentation for your QE is a great opportunity to review the project and its feasibility. It is easy for us to get lost in the nuances of our studies, as we are constantly immersed in it. However, when we prepare for the QE this allows us to take a step back and explain our work to professors who might not have any exposure to our specific research. For me, this process was crucial in honing my research expectations into a focused project that could be completed within my remaining three years.
QE was for me an excellent opportunity to lay down and clarify my ideas and to narrow down what I wanted to do. It is not to be seen as a stressful examination only but as a great opportunity to discuss important points and to receive advice and insightful perspectives. The possibility of a correction of the proposal after receiving comments allows the refinement and polishing of the project. The referees are very helpful and constructive, being not only a one-time jury but following and helping to mold the whole project. It was very challenging but totally valuable.
QE is a good chance for me to scrutinize my research proposal and make the direction of research project more clear. During the preparation of QE, I frequently discussed with my mentors and both of them gave me some advices for my study. In the QE, all of the referees gave me a lot of suggestions for my research proposal. And these suggestions are really helpful for me to clarify and consolidate the idea of my study now.

My QE experience was interesting because I learned about the differences between an engineering proposal presentation and a scientific proposal presentation. Engineers are more interested on How rather than on Why, so regarding the presentation of my model, I felt I focused too much on explaining the background instead of explaining what made my model and my project special and or interesting.
My recommendation for QE is to think about it as if you’re pitching your idea, like selling it to your audience. To succeed, please remark the strengths of your project and what makes it unique.

There is really so much I want to say when it comes to my QE experience. Although when I found out that QE in Humanics could be done at a year and a half, or even a year early, I wanted to have a try. But since I hadn't published academic papers or done any research on the subject during my time at university, I had very little experience. So after discussion with my professor, we decided to concentrate on the final QE opportunity at the end of two years. In other word, "one shot to win"「一発勝負」, thus saving more time and effort on research. And from the preparation of the QE to the publication and the results. I had many discussions and exchanges with the professors on the review committee. Revisiting the QE process and the feeling it brought me, I think it is not just an exam, but a research guidepost. The professors will give advice on current research problems and follow-up plans from both medicine and informatics areas and perspectives, which I feel is crucial.

Although QE may be perceived as an exam, I think it is better to see it as an opportunity to summarize my current work and construct a full-picture vision of future work. By preparing for the QE, I not only had an objective understanding of my research, but I also gain a clearer idea of how to move forward with my study throughout the Ph.D. duration. Preparing materials for the QE is also a good opportunity to practice your writing and presentation skills. Of course, actually advancing our study in daily experiments and data analysis is the most important thing. The daily accumulation will provide strong support for QE.

The QE is one of the most valuable experiences in the Humanics program as writing the research plan makes the research ideas transform into realistic, feasible and measurable steps to acquire significant results. The feedback I received from my referees helped me improve the bi-disciplinary aspects of my proposal and to revise some aspects that were not clear at that time. The possibility of re submitting the research plan after the initial feedback is especially worthwhile and helped a lot to reduce the pressure and also to enhance considerably the research proposal. It is important to be concise, clear and to always think the referees are also multidisciplinary so do not assume the referees will necessarily know all the aspects of your research from the first time.
Humanics Forum aims to lead the students to learn the purpose of human resource development and program curricula of the Ph.D. Program in Humanics. Listening to presentations by faculty members and practical lectures by academic researchers, government administrators, and entrepreneurs or researchers who successfully work at business companies. In this seminar, the students will have discussions with their classmates on their study proposals and future career paths, and write a report on their learning objectives and future directions of their study.
Through working in the laboratories run by program faculty members in Biomedical sciences, the students should be able to understand the outline of the faculty members’ researches and the principles of the fundamental experimental techniques involved. They will also practice the techniques learnt.

English Discussion and Presentation on Medical Sciences I
This course offers the students the opportunity to select one or two laboratories that they are interested in from those hosted by the faculty members of the Ph.D. Program in Humanics. The students will then engage in their own research in the laboratories for 4 weeks and discuss with their instructors its objectives, procedures and results. In this course, students should be able to acquire a wide range of research techniques and develop their skills for analysis of research results and get an international mindset.
In this course, students will learn outline of 1) Technologies for Humanics and 2) basic mathematical modeling in physical sciences, engineering, and informatics
