### Student from Thai
#### What sparked your interest to pursue research in your chosen program?
Chaotic movement of fluid sparked my interest in fluid dynamics and I fount that it is very interesting yet fun to learn how to control it.
#### What kind of research you do currently?
I'm researching about the optimization of air control which is related to fluid dynamics. The main application is for A/C control in the vehicle.
#### What has been the most memorable research experience in your studies so far?
Once I obtained an unexpected result, I discussed with my advisor and we both amazed with the results. Discussing the reasons behind something we unexpectedly discovered was memorable and enjoyable.
#### What message would you like to share with someone considering pursuing research at Nagoya University?
Nagoya University has various laboratories, falicities and opportunities. English supports are also nicely prepared. Nagoya university has a very foreigner friendly environment.
