[Bachelor Student] J-PAC (Japan Program at Chiba) Fall 2020 at Chiba University, Japan (JASSO Scholarship)

Date - 

Chiba University was founded in 1949, unifying several regional former national colleges and schools such as Chiba Medical College and Chiba Normal School. Its fundamental mission since then has been, as encapsulated by the inscription on the University Bell, ad altiora semper (always toward the higher), to equip students with the ability to make mature and informed judgments while nurturing and guiding their creativity. Pursuing these goals of excellence has resulted in Chiba University becoming one of the leading academic research centers in Japan.
We are pleased to inform you that the application for J-PAC Fall 2020 and Spring 2021 is now open 

J-PAC (Japan Program at Chiba) is offered to students from academic institutions with which Chiba University has university-level student exchange agreements, and whose academic interest is in the area of Japanese culture and society. J-PAC includes International Liberal Arts Program, which offers to students irrespective of their area of specialization, and Japanese Studies Program, which is designed for students who specialize in Japanese studies at their universities. Both can accommodate students for two semesters, i.e. from October to August of the following year, for two terms either from October to February (i.e. Fall semester) or from April to early August (i.e. Spring semester) in the following year.
Applicants should send their completed applications through their home institutions.
Note that J-PAC is NOT a language course for students whose only aim is to improve their Japanese language skills.
