Now accepting applications

Enrollment Fall
Number of Students Admitted Several students for each department
Degree Program Offered Doctoral program
Application Period Mid-August to Mid-October

Overview

With a diverse group of 12 academic departments participating in IGP(B), for applicants seeking scholarships from their home governments, students should be able to find a department in which to further their research, acquire broader knowledge and understanding, and conduct advanced long-term research in a field that best matches their interests and background.
Qualified international students, who may have little or no knowledge of the Japanese language, can enroll in Science Tokyo's Master's or Doctoral Programs and pursue an advanced degree in Japan as lectures and seminars are held in English. However, students are given opportunities to attend Japanese language classes on a regular basis in order to better adapt to daily life in Japan.
This program aims to recruit qualified students who are expected to apply for a scholarship offered by a non-Japanese government or organization before their enrollment in a Doctoral Program at Science Tokyo, and thus need to obtain written confirmation of admission to the program.
Funders of scholarships provided to past applicants include the China Scholarship Council (CSC), the Indonesia Endowment Fund for Education (LPDP), and the Indonesian Directorate General of Higher Education (DGHE or DIKTI).
