SOKENDAI Student Dispatch Program
This program is supported by a grant from the university that enables students to take part in international joint research projects. These projects foster highly specialized world-class researchers who have global perspectives. The program provides students opportunities to study at cutting-edge research institutes abroad for from two to twelve weeks in order to pursue in-depth study with a number of prominent researchers. Approximately 10 proposals in total are accepted each year.
