The Embassy of Japan and North South University organised the ‘Study in Japan Seminar 2019’. The seminar provided useful information on higher education in Japan, including the Japanese government scholarship, study and life in Japan as well as its advantages. Three professors of North South University who received their doctoral degrees from Japanese universities spoke about their study experiences as foreign students in Japan. Around 120 students of North South University participated in this seminar.
Over 5 decades, Japan has been providing government scholarship to more than 4,000 Bangladeshis. In 2018 alone, more than 120 Bangladeshi students newly received this government-funded scholarship and are now studying in Japan on various academic fields. The scholarship application opens twice a year in mid-April (Embassy recommendation) and October (University recommendation). Please visit the Japanese Embassy’s website for details.
