Research expectations in our laboratory

	Develop communication skills and expertise knowledge for effective information exchange with world class researchers internationally.
	Enhance motivations by exchanging views with students and researchers from internal and external.
	Develop presentation skills and variegated views through laboratory seminars and open seminars organized by the laboratory.
	Develop creativity through understanding and integration of engineering principles and agricultural/biological approaches.
	Develop a core group of laboratory personnel (3-5 persons) to actively participate programming of international professional organizations. Based on the discussions among the core group members, develop a problem-solving ability.
	Develop critical thinking skills to define problems and improve analytical skills to solve problems effectively and efficiently.
	New comers (senior students and new graduate students) learn about agricultural crop and food by joining the core groups consisting of senior laboratory members. The aim is to promote self-motivated learning.
	Without any prejudice being developed in each study group, student should pursue knowledge with an open mind in scientific manner (Academic Freedom Tradition).
	Senior student will present his/her research findings at a conference before graduation.self-motivated learning.
	MS student will submit at least a paper of his/her findings to an international journal in two years.
	Ph.D student will submit at least three papers to international journal(s) in three years. One of the three papers should be “accepted” or “published” for the minimum requirement to get degree.
