The Summer Institute, a program for sending Japanese graduate students (currently studying in doctorate or master’s programs) to Korean universities, national research institutes and other facilities for approximately two months during the Summer season, has started this fiscal year 2008.
This project seeks to work through hands-on experiences of the research stances and methods (research training) practiced in Japan and South Korea to create opportunities for Japanese-Korean joint research in industrial technology, and to support efforts to strengthen such research. The goal of these activities is to help foster human relations capable of advancing exchanges of industrial technology between Japan and South Korea, anticipating that this will contribute to raising the level of industrial technology in both nations.
The Summer Institute Program is sponsored by the Japan-Korea Industrial Technology Co-Operation Foundation (JKF) that is commissioned by the Japan-Korea Cultural Foundation (JKCF) under the support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan. Korea-Japan Cooperation Foundation For Industry And Technology (KJCF) will implement the program withthe cooperation of Japan International Science and Technology Exchange Center (JISTEC) .
