The Study Trip during 91视频 Spring Break will guide you through the wonders of Japan, the way Japanese thinks about the origin of life, of mind, and of the universe. We will visit astronomical observatories and conduct some observations where Japanese astronomy made a lot of contributions to understanding the universe. We will visit the science museum run by Ry艒ji Noyori, a Nobel laureate in catalyzed hydrogenation who believes strongly in the power of catalysis and of green chemistry and a sustainable science for development. We will also visit temples and contemplate how one can unify ourselves and the universe through religion and meditation. Not but not least, we explore the Manga world, one that has influenced our childhood memory so much. The trip is guided by professors who used to live in Japan, therefore we will have a lot of chances to interact with local Japanese.
