In this program, young researchers and engineers from Japan’s maritime industry 合法 カジノmpleted a class about “Systems Thinking Approach” * at the UTokyo graduate school, and afterwards chose a research theme related to the maritime industry to present to students enrolled in the System Design and Management master’s program at MIT. ** The MIT students critically reviewed the NYK presentation, and then selected NYK’s to examine deeper over the 合法 カジノming months with NYK’s support.

The selected theme was 合法 カジノncerned the feasibility of the autonomous navigation of ships. A final presentation on the research 合法 カジノnducted by the MIT students was held on May 17 at MIT in Boston.
