Through 5 days from the 2nd to the 6th of September, an intensive course to learn about high-temperature materials in English, “Introduction to high-temperature materials” has been held. The course is designed aiming to develop global human resources who are able to present and share research results on the international stage, through learning basic reading and writing English skills related to Materials Science.

The course was brought by professors specialized in heat resistance metal materials, including professor Roger Reed of the University of Oxford who is also the director of the Next Generation Tatara Co-Creation Centre(NEXTA), as well as professor Graham McCartney who is also from the University of Oxford. The course was brought both online and through video lectures, including exercises and a question and answer section via Teams.  

The lectures has been brought fully in English, and the students had some opportunities to ask questions directly during the question and answer sections. At the end of the very first lecture, Professor Roger Reed sent a message to the students saying; “Please study hard and please remember in NEXTA, you have a very nice opportunity for doing your research.”

There are also plans for future lectures by the professors at the University of Oxford.
