Traveled to and lived in Nagoya, Aichi, Japan, to study numerous aspects of automotive engineering and Japanese language, at Nagoya University. As part of the program, I toured top-of-the-line factories and research facilities, from companies like Toyota Motor, Yokohama Tire, Suzuki, Yamaha, DENSO, among others. Alongside lectures, with a small group, I researched automatic control applications in automotive engineering and presented the material to classmates and staff. Additionally an incredible cultural immersion experience.
