I enrolled in the department of Mechanical Engineering in October 2012 through MEM program. After 5 years, I successfully finished my Master and PhD degrees in the Ushida-Furukawa laboratory. My research theme was tissue engineering for regenerative medicine. Professors and colleagues could communicate with me in both English and Japanese for research discussion and daily life, so that I had such a precious time inside my lab.

MEM program gave me lots of advices during the application process and even after enrollment. They had tried to care about my inconvenience inside and outside of the laboratory. Particularly, MEM program organized various events every year including welcome party, summer trip, farewell party, etc. Those events let me make new international friends as well as Japanese friends, which made my Tokyo life joyful and easy to get accustomed. If you are interested in the enrollment in Engineering department at the University of Tokyo, I strongly recommend you to apply for MEM program!
