Q1:Why Kyutech?

In October 2019, I participated in the double-degree-exchange program between YangZhou University and Kyutech. During the period, I studied bioengineering, especially in the field of biomolecules. There friendly research environment in the Ikeno Lab. always allow me to asking questions freely and that gave me the enthusiasm for learning more. So after obtaining my master degree, I chose to continue my ph.D study here.

Q2:About Research

Now, I am continuing my study at the functional biomolecules field. As we all know, the peptides have a lot of biofunctions in vivo and have demonstrated a promising ability as therapeutic agents and biochemical tools. I am working on the cyclic peptides study, especially, analysis the cyclic peptides’ functions in the cell and screening for the new functional cyclic peptides.

Q3:Best point of Kyutech

The people in kyutech are nice and kind people. The stuff in kyutech, they always give kind help and support with a big smile. The students in the school, they are very patient and attentive. In fact, I learn the Japanese from my Lab. members. They are always very patient to teach me over and over again.

Horio Laboratory

Supri Bin Amir


Q1:Why Kyutech?

Kyutech provides an excellent and extensive setting for research, from its facilities to the assistance it gives its students.

Q2:About Research

Under Prof. Horio's supervision, I am currently using deep learning to analyze kindergartener behavior and the immediate surroundings. Professor Horio puts in a lot of effort and is always prepared to provide a helping hand; he consistently offered me a myriad of concrete suggestions that often proved to be spot on. He granted me the opportunity to go off on my own and keep on facilitating the discussion about my research interests.

Q3:Best point of Kyutech

Many international students from places as diverse as America, Europe, Australia, and Asia have been accepted to study at Kyutech. That way, discussions among students can include a wide range of viewpoints (global perspectives), not just those gleaned from academic research or cross-cultural experiences.

Q4:My recommended place from Kyutech

For me, nothing beats spending time in the lab. It's not just a place to get work done; it's also a communal hub where people can swap tales unrelated to our studies. Having access to play sports with my peers in the gymnasium is one of the perks of studying at KYUTECH, making it one of my favorite places to go.

Q5:What surprised me most in Japan

The timely work and the dedication of the whole system in Japan is one of the things that has impressed me a lot.

Q6:What kind of life

It's wonderful to meet new people, and I've recently become part of a local community that has encouraged me to join celebrations of all kinds, from festive occasions to outings. If you plan on relocating to Kitakyushu with your family during your study, you'll be happy to know that the Kitakyushu International Association (KIA) is one of many expat support organizations in the area, providing a wide range of services to help us such as provide learning japanese, organize some event, etc.

Q7:My future dream

I aspire to become a lecturer specializing in my area of research. I would intend to make a constructive contribution to both Japan and my own country, Indonesia, by serving as a conduit between the two nations.

Yoshida Laboratory

Q1:Why Kyutech?

To be in a good and supportive research environment is very important for me and Kyutech have it. I was introduced to Yoshida sensei before I actually selected as a student in Kyutech. She really understand about my gap year. She directs but at the same time gives me the opportunity to explore many things independently.

Q2:About Research

I always feel that doing research is like riding on a roller coaster. Hard to start, getting harder during the process, but there is always a finish line. Currently I'm on a roller coaster of studying the concept of Human Robot Interaction with focus on human and Robot behavior based on gesture and image recognition. :)

Q3:Best point of Kyutech

Yoshida Laboratory is like a family, where everybody live in a  friendly environment  including  Sensei along with all lab members.

Q4:My recommended place from Kyutech

There is a circular room on each floor near the elevator, which is excellent for wide and pleasant view outside. If you want to relax for a while from research and small refreshment it is best place. Nevertheless, it is beside my laboratory.

Very good in terms of customer service.
