Student Ambassadors

Hello there, I’m Kyle from the Philippines. My family and I have always had a penchant for traveling and exploring different countries, but after my sister’s short stint as an exchange student, and some back-and-forth traveling with her host family, we fell deeply in love with a certain country called Japan. That, as well as a desire to pursue further education in a country on the cutting edge of civil engineering, eventually brought me here to Science Tokyo. Currently, I’m a MEXT scholar and a doctral student in the Next Generation Infrastructure (Chijiwa) Laboratory, where I’m conducting research on the performance, maintenance, and repair of concrete structures. In my downtime, you’ll often find me buried in manga, taking strolls through nature, indulging in travel and food adventures, and enjoying gaming sessions with friends. Adjusting to life in Japan has been both challenging and fulfilling, and I hope to share my experiences to assist fellow students in navigating this beautiful country.
