Overview:
The IUC Nippon Foundation Fellowship Program 2015-16 (Inter-University Center for Japanese Language Studies) is one of the leading Japanese language institute for the highest level of Japanese. Since 2013, the Nippon Foundation has offered fellowships to 10 promising graduate students of Japan Studies doctorate courses in the US, who participated 10 months Japanese language training course in Yokohama.
The Nippon Foundation has decided to expand the number of grantees from 10 to 20, and also to extend the scope of the program from Japanese Studies to Professional Schools such as law, MBA, governmental officials, journalists and so on. This is a new initiative that will start from 2016, and IUC has recently made the announcement for the application from potential candidates. This program will be appealing to some of JETAA members who want to seek for their professional career paths that are related to Japan.
This program would be a strong basis for nurturing next generation leaders who will bridge US-Japan relationship.
