now accepting applications for the MEXT Postgraduate Scholarship programme 2012-14. Please read the application Postgraduate Scholarships notes carefully before completing the application forms. All applications must be submitted by post by no later than Wednesday, 8 June 2011 to MEXT Postgraduate Scholarships, Embassy of Japan, 101-104 Piccadilly, London W1J 7JT.
Please note that the application system for the MEXT Postgraduate Scholarships has changed slightly from previous years. It is essential that candidates have looked into suitable Japanese universities where they can conduct their research/studies and that these are listed on the attachment form at the time of application to the Embassy. Applicants who pass the Embassy selection stage of the application procedure will be expected to contact the universities listed on the attachment form to try and gain admission.
This award is offered on an annual basis to those with a minimum of a bachelor’s degree, under the age of 35, who wish to continue their studies in Japan. The scholarship is offered for both research and taught postgraduate courses. With regard to a taught course, any additional entry requirements specified by each particular university must be met. No knowledge of Japan or the Japanese language is necessary.
Grantees can pursue research or study in any field as long as it is related to their field of expertise or previous study. It can be difficult, however, to place students who wish to study visual and performing arts. Candidates are encouraged to establish contacts with Japanese academics in their field when applying for the scholarship.
Scholarships are tenable from either April or October each year. Those leaving in April will hold their award for a minimum of two years, whilst those departing in October will hold theirs for a minimum of 18 months. The Japanese Government provides return air fare, school fees and a monthly grant of ¥150,000 (subject to change).
