UTokyo Amgen Scholars Program 2027 (Fully Funded Summer Research)

The UTokyo Amgen Scholars Program 2027 gives undergraduate students from Asia a fully funded chance to do research in Japan. It is a summer program, not a full degree. Scholars spend about eight weeks in a lab at the University of Tokyo. First, check the MEXT Japanese Government Scholarship for longer study options in Japan.

First, the program provides accommodation near the Hongo or Yayoi campus. Also, it covers round trip airfare for international students. Plus, it covers train tickets for those in Japan. Scholars receive a stipend of 280,000 Japanese yen. This covers meals and personal costs. In short, the award covers the main costs of the summer stay.

Students interested in biology and related fields who plan to pursue a PhD should look here. However, for a full postgraduate degree in Japan, consider the Honjo International Scholarship instead.
