Profile Dr. Kazuya Itoh graduated from Musashi Institute of Technology with Bachelor and Master degrees in the field of Civil Engineering in 1998 and 2000, respectively. He also obtained his Ph. D degree from Tokyo Institute of Technology in the field of Civil Engineering in 2003. After his Ph. D, he worked in National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health, Japan (JNIOSH) until the end of March, 2015 and move to Tokyo City University from April, 2015. He is currently Associate Professor in Tokyo City University. His research field is physical modelling in geotechnical engineering, and he involves many civil engineering projects such as prevention and mitigation of geo-disasters, labour accident caused by geotechnical field etc.
