We are engaged in five activities for international students and young foreign researchers in graduate schools.
If you wish to use these services described below, please register by following the link “Register as International Student.” If you can support our NPO activities, please kindly register by following the link “Register as Supporter.”
1. We will create a network of experts that transcends national borders.
We provide introductions to Japanese experts, support for gathering information about Japan, introductions to overseas experts who have experience living in Japan, and support for international information exchange.
2. We provide opportunities for you to experience Japan that will broaden your research horizons.
We provide opportunities to allow you to learn about Japan’s companies, culture & history, and society and to view your own field of expertise from a broader perspective.
3. We will help you with any problems you may have.
We can provide advice on everyday problems (introduction of specialists for Japan’s lifestyle and dispute resolution).
4. We offer emergency short-term scholarships.
International graduate students and young researchers from overseas sometimes encounter unexpected difficulties that make it difficult to continue their research. In such cases, we provide or lend “emergency short-term scholarships”. To apply for an emergency short-term scholarship, please submit the required documents through your affiliated university. You can apply at any time.
5. We provide opportunities for international exchange with Japanese people and graduate students from overseas.
We provide opportunities to make friends from a wide range of countries through strolling, chatting, and exchanging casual topics.
