On the occasion of International Women’s Day on March 8, Shibaura Institute of Technology published an advertisement in the morning editions of the Asahi and Yomiuri newspapers, showing the existence of role models and overcoming the barriers of gender bias in the fields of science and engineering.
In this advertisement, Ms. Ayumi Morota from our GEL-SIT is featured in the middle of the page. We hope you will take a look.
“We are role models.” We ran an advertisement on International Women’s Day.
Geotechnical Engineering, which deals with the invisible world below the ground, is a field that requires diverse perspectives and ideas.
Detailed observation and flexible problem-solving skills are essential for assessing soil stability and disaster risk, and diverse human resources with different perspectives create innovation. Women’s perspectives are becoming increasingly important from the perspective of developing environmentally friendly underground disaster prevention and mitigation technologies to realize a sustainable society.
