General

Open Forum is a casual opportunity to come together and discuss issues that matter to us.  A student or other member of the community speaks for about 8 minutes on any topic of their choice.  PowerPoint slides are welcome but not essential. 

After the presentation, participants ask questions and discuss the focus for the day.  In the past, students have spoken about their research, social issues such as women in engineering, water shortages throughout the world, philosophy, new technology, etc.  An abbreviated version of a presentation already given in class is perfectly fine! 

Considering that we are still in a pandemic, we are inviting presenters to indicate whether they would allow their presentations to be recorded for limited distribution among registered members of the Tokyo Tech community.  (Message from Prof. Kiyama, ToTAL)
