The international symposium and seminar on global nuclear human resource development for safety, security and safeguards (IS3S) is a yearly activity coordinated by the Academy for Global Nuclear Safety and Security Agent of the Tokyo Institute of Technology. The aim of this activity is to enhance the international relations of students and young professionals in the nuclear field (Japanese and foreign). The IS3S is organized within the program of nuclear studies of the Academy which aims at developing nuclear human resources in the fields of safety, security and safeguards (non-proliferation), i.e. to develop global leaders with a scientific background in the nuclear physics and engineering fields which are able to tackle global issues, efficiently communicate with the society as well as with peers in the international nuclear community.

The 5th IS3S was divided in three parts. Four (4) plenary sessions were delivered in 3 days including 27 speeches by renowned nuclear department heads of universities worldwide and international and domestic nuclear agencies. The topics of the plenary sessions included nuclear energy in the future and non-proliferation issues, nuclear education and training and nuclear research and development. In the following 4 days, field education activities were carried out such as radiation level measurements in Tokyo and in the Fukushima prefecture area and visits to the Rokkasho reprocessing plant and the Onagawa nuclear power plant. Back into Tokyo, the seminar continued with 4 lecture sessions delivered in 2 days by 9 prominent professionals in the fields of safeguards systems, nuclear security culture, nuclear terrorism and forensics as well as cyber security of nuclear facilities. The last two days of the seminar were dedicated to student sessions where groups of students and young professionals prepared oral presentations of topics lectured during the symposium and seminar.

Forty-seven (47) students and young professional were invited to the 5th IS3S-5. The students came from the Academy (12), the TokyoTec nuclear engineering program (3), Japanese young professionals from national agencies and electric companies (6) and overseas students and young professionals (26) from USA (8), Malaysia (5), Korea (3), Vietnam (2), Russia (2), Lithuania (2), Austria (1), Romania (1) and Slovenia (1). Oriol Costa was the Slovenian representative in the 5th IS3S, held during February 21st and March 3rd. The European representatives were selected through the European Nuclear Education Network.
