This program will select students who can likely contribute internationally in their research field, from those applying to doctoral courses at the Graduate School of Environmental Science.
Participating in research as a Research Assistant (RA) is very meaningful to develop your research ability. Each Research Assistant must serve to achieve the objective of a research subject directed by a Graduate School of Environmental Science faculty member. The research subjects are listed below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maximum 3 years, with the annual extension subject to evaluation of achievements by a faculty committee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Students (mainly from developing countries) who seek admission to the doctor courses of the Graduate School of Environmental Science. Payment Exemption: Total amount of school fees is entirely covered by Hokkaido University (i.e., entrance exam fee of 30,000 yen, admission fee of 282,000 yen, and the annual tuition fee of 535,800 yen for each of three years). RA Allowance (depending on the actual working time): Total 3 million yen (1 million yen annually for three years) 19 June (Monday) 2023<\/p>\n\n\n\n Applicants are required to submit the documents listed below via email. The documents should not be written in a language other than English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Academic Affairs Section Title: Removal of Anionic Contaminants in Water Using Porous Materials<\/strong> Pure water is essential for human survival and its availability is vital for building a sustainable society. Effective use of groundwater is key to ensuring pure water, but groundwater contamination by anions (nitrate, perchlorate, and so on) has recently become apparent in many parts of the world. The purpose of this research is to develop porous materials showing efficient removal of anionic contaminants in water and understand a removal mechanism. A successful candidate is expected to have a Master’s Degree in Environmental Science at the time of joining and he\/she is required to have knowledge of synthetic chemistry, porous materials, and fundamentals of adsorption\/desorption. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
