Daiwa Scholarships in Japanese Studies

The Daiwa Scholarships in Japanese Studies, a postgraduate programme  to support the study of Japanese Studies in either Japan or the UK, were launched in 2015.

Since 2015, Scholarships have been awarded to 31 individuals, focussing on Japan in a variety of areas such as archaeology, art, history and Japanese literature both in the UK and Japan.

The intention is to support postgraduate studies related to Japan at a university in Japan or the UK.
