[Call for participants] SOKENDAI Students’ Seminar on Skills for Poster Presentation

SOKENDAI (The Graduate University for Advanced Studies) and the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) jointly organize the "JSPS Summer Program."

This program provides young researchers from six countries (the US, the UK, France, Germany, Canada and Sweden), who have undertaken or just completed their doctoral program,

with a joint research opportunity at Japanese research institutes or universities for two months in summer.

SOKENDAI hosts an orientation session in the first week of their stay, and more than hundreds of the JSPS fellows will come together at the Shonan Village Center (Hayama, Kanagawa) to have the Japanese language classes and participate in the host family program.

For this opportunity, SOKENDAI offers "Students' Seminar on Skills for Poster Presentation" to our students.

Mr.Jeremiah S. Sechrist (Special-Appointment Lecturer, Center for Educational Development) will be your instructor, and he will be giving an intensive seminar on effective communication and presentation skills for poster sessions.

After the seminar, students will present their poster at the JSPS Summer Program's event, "Poster Presentation."

This is a unique opportunity to improve your presentation as well as communication skills, and to meet a diverse group of young scholars from overseas.

Please be a part of this special Student's Seminar on Skills for Poster Presentation in Hayama in
this June.

(Accommodation at the Hayama Campus, and a certain amount of transportation fees will be provided to all the participating SOKENDAI students.)
