Language Japanese Day/Period Mon.1
Instructor name FUJISAWA KAZUNORI (Graduate School of Agriculture Professor)
Outline and Purpose of the Course Lectures will be given on the significance and design theory of various water utilization facilities that have become the backbone of the drainage water project and agricultural land development project implemented by the agricultural and rural development project. Based on the knowledge of design theory, we also refer to the function diagnosis and maintenance of facilities that are necessary to extend the life of the facilities.
Course Goals - Knowing how fundamental knowledge gained from already completed subjects is applied to obtaining new understanding/knowledge.
- Deepening concrete understanding of the relationship between learned content and practice (on site).
- Fostering the ability to voluntarily and continuously tackle tasks (reports).
