Â鶹AV has been selected as an implementing institution for "Support for Pioneering Research Initiated by the Next Generation" proceeded by the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST). Â鶹AV has established the Program for Developing and Supporting the Next-Generation of Innovative Researchers at Â鶹AV with the aim of creating an environment where doctoral students can concentrate on their research with peace of mind, and making them leap forward by support and foster so that they can contribute to the future of science, technology and innovation in Japan and who will be future leaders of the world. Therefore, we are calling for students who are eligible for support (hereinafter referred to as "Next-Generation Fellows").
This program seeks individuals who can contribute to Japan's future science, technology, and innovation and who can promote initiatives to make the world a better place through their comprehensive ability to have a broad perspective and knowledge, excellent judgment, and the acting power.
In particular, we are looking for applicants who have the intention to be directly involved in the creation of science, technology and innovation in Japan after obtaining their doctoral degrees at Â鶹AV, and we will emphasize this point in our screening process. 
The program will provide to adopted fellows the support grant which is an amount equivalent to living expense to devote their research as well as research funds, and will refer the opportunity of study abroad for research to overseas institutes and the acquisition of transferable skills. Besides it will implement the various initiatives related to their career development and raising.
In addition, HU SPRING, an emergent scene for Next-Generation Fellows to interact and collaborate beyond their own areas of expertise, will be established to provide a forum for discussion on how to approach solving social problems and achieving world peace.
