The Civil Engineering global PBL will successfully complete its entire schedule upon its return tomorrow. The careful and detailed support provided by the members of our GEL-SIT was the key to the success of this global PBL. They not only managed the entire the global PBL, but also encouraged the nervous students from each country, and were always there to support the groups so that each group could be proactive in their activities. We would like to express our deepest respect and gratitude to everyone in the GEL-SIT for their efforts and activities!
# The global PBL in Civil Engineering is a program involving approximately 130 civil engineering students from Shibaura Institute of Technology, Kasetsart University, Asian Institute of Technology, King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi, and Hanoi University of Civil Engineering. The program will explore disaster prevention and mitigation technologies as a countermeasure to natural hazards (earthquakes, torrential rains, etc.) common to Japan, Thailand, and Vietnam, as well as how infrastructure technologies should be developed to achieve the Goal 11 of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), “Make cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable.
