Since spring of 2009, we, Global COE Program Support Unit at Graduate School of Environmental Science has been supporting research of students and researchers who are belonging to 4 divisions of Graduate School of Environmental Science and Graduate School of Agriculture of Hokkaido University by providing various programs. Especially in "Career Upgrade Program", we solicit applicants through open recruitment then support their research and overseas travels.
In this site, we introduce the voices of students and researchers who participated in the following programs;
(c)Travel support funding for overseas conferences and workshops
(d)Support funding for visiting program for overseas institutes and fields
(e)Invitation fellowship program for overseas researcher.
We also introduce reports of master course students who participated in international conferences through "Excellent Master Course Student Overseas Visits Program". This program is a part of "JSPS Institutional Program for Young Researcher Overseas Visits" and GCOE Project Support Unit is a secretariat of this JSPS program. However, this JSPS program is not under the Global COE Program.
In this site, you can find out what students can do and their experiences gained through our programs. It would be very nice if you could have an interest in not only about this Career Upgrade Program but also students' research.
