Mr. Kosaka described AIT’s Construction Engineering and Infrastructure
Management (CEIM) program as an attractive proposition, since it covers
issues related to management, labor, and contractual issues, besides
technical expertise. Companies often experience difficulties while
implementing overseas projects, and relevant teaching and training at
AIT can help them overcome this problem, Mr. Kosaka said. He expressed
interest in AIT’s two-year Master’s program, one-year Professional
Master’s program, and semester long training programs.
Welcoming Mr. Kosaka, the AIT President, Prof. Said Irandoust stated
that AIT is willing to partner with OCAJI in organizing professional
knowledge forums. He suggested that AIT can create tailor-made programs
for OCAJI professionals.
