Representatives from Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS - Japan’s equivalent of NSF) visited MIT yesterday to present a couple of programs MIT graduate students are eligible to apply for. The applicant does not have to a Japanese speaker, but is required to find a host researcher in Japan before submitting an application. The programs provide opportunities to do research in Japan.
1. JSPS Summer Program http://www.jsps.go.jp/english/e-summer/
2. JSPS Postdoctoral Fellowship (short-term) – Predocs are also eligible. http://www.jsps.go.jp/english/e-fellow/postdoctoral.html#short
3. JSPS Postdoctoral Fellowship for Foreign Researchers – Postdocs only, but application process can start while still in PhD program. http://www.jsps.go.jp/english/e-fellow/postdoctoral.html#long
Details can be found on the web pages above, but if you have any question, please let me know.
Thank you.
