Funding for Japanese Studies - Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation Award

The Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation Award is designed to support the development of Japanese Studies in the United Kingdom. This scheme annually provides a limited number of postgraduate awards to support students pursuing Japanese-related studies at the University of Edinburgh. Masters students applying to the MScR programme in Japanese are automatically considered for this award, while applicants to the taught MSc in East Asian Studies who take the Japanese pathway can request consideration. PhD students applying to the PhD programme in Japanese are automatically considered, and applicants to the PhD in East Asian Studies with a research focus on Japan can also request to be considered. All applicants must submit their applications by the specified deadline, typically in early March.
