Interview with Professor Noboru Koshizuka

Yesterday, I interviewed Professor Noboru Koshizuka at the University of Tokyo’s Information Science and Technology Center.
I also attended a meeting of the Open Data × Education Working Group promoted by Learning of Tomorrow.
When I was a student there, the center was housed in a prefab building,
but now it’s home to Kengo Kuma’s Ubiquitous Academic Research Building and Tadao Ando’s Fukutake Hall.
The facilities at the Graduate School of Information Science and Technology are truly impressive!
The interview article will be posted on the CS for ALL website at a later date.
Thank you very much, Professor Koshizuka ^^
