Technical Creation Course
Shen Liheng
  1. Graduate School of Engineering
  2. China
  3. High Speed Vision
  4. I graduated from Shanghai University, China and obtained a Bachelor Degree. My major is automation.I learned some programming such as C,C++ and C# at university and I also did some research on Image Processing Algorithms and Face Estimation Methods.I became a student union leader when I was a bachelor student, it made me consider the questions concerning those things as responsibility, ambition, courage, persistence and so on.I hope that I will become a person as the educational ideas that TAOYAKA Program holds: efficiently acquire the skills necessary to successfully act as innovation leaders aiming for the creation of a multicultural coexistence society, without relying greatly on traditional fields of specialty.
Yoshida Hironori
  1. Graduate School of Engineering
  2. Japan
  3. High speed vision
  4. I am Hironori Yoshida. I graduated from School of Engineering, Hiroshima University. Currently, I belong to the Robotics Laboratory, and research on honeybees using high speed vision. Honeybees are contributing in agriculture and it is important to monitor them. My hometown is Iki City, Nagasaki Prefecture which is an isolated island and one of the disadvantaged areas. Therefore, I am very interested in the idea and activities of Taoyaka program, and I will be my best in these activities. Through activities in Taoyaka Program, I’m looking forward to discovering technologies, ideas and values I don’t know.
Social Implementation Course


Nakamura Kotaro
  1. Graduate School for International Development and Cooperation
  2. Japan
  3. Environmental Economics, Behavioral Economics
  4. I graduated from School of Global Humanities and Social Sciences, Nagasaki University in 2019. During my bachelor years, I mainly studied economics and other social science-related fields such as management, politics, and international law. Currently, my research focuses on sustainable use of community waterless toilets and improved cooking stoves, both of which have been known to be effective in improving the living standards of people in disadvantaged regions, but used irregularly and inappropriately after implementation. Instances of such technologies expected to positively influence the living environment of poverty-stricken people are abundant; however, how the technologies form new and better habits among the targeted population remains an open question. This is my research interest at the moment.
Yamamoto Hirotaka
  1. Graduate School for International Development and Cooperation
  2. Japan
  3. Transportation engineering, Behavioral economics
  4. I’m Hirotaka Yamamoto. I’ve lived in Hiroshima since I was born. In addition to it, now I’m in Hiroshima University. Therefore, I’m feeling destiny that I’m studying in this University. My graduation research was focusing on elderly people’s mobility in rural area. How to improve current situation in terms of transportation, this is my research motivation. During graduate school I would like to try to consider the solution of issues not only disadvantage area in Japan but also overseas. Through this program, I will acquire the wide view and cross-knowledge!
