    International Graduate Programme for

    East Asia Sustainable Economic Development Studies

    Guidelines of a Programme for Special Exchange Students (Winter Term 2019/2020)


    (Based on the exchange agreements between BE, TIARA, PS of Thammasat University/
    FEB of University of Gadjah Mada/Faculty of Economics of Chiang Mai University (Econ-CMU)/
    Faculty of Economics of Kasetsart University (Econ-KU) and GSE of Kyoto University)

    Programme Objectives

    International Graduate Programme for East Asia Sustainable Economic Development Studies (EA Programme),
    launched in 2009, is designed to provide international students with both advanced academic knowledge and
    practical skills. The programme is unique in that its entire curriculum is provided in English; its academic year
    starts in October; and students have many opportunities to conduct field research at diverse sites such as large
    manufacturing plants and small factories, cutting-edge businesses and rural farming communities throughout
    Japan and East Asia to nurture a sense of reality. Students are expected to develop a multidimensional,
    multidisciplinary, and international point of view that is essential to deal with and contribute to the sustainable
    development of East Asian economies. Our students are from China, South Korea, Indonesia, Thailand, Turkey,
    Germany, Nepal, Italy, the U.S. and other countries. From 2013 the programme is open to Japanese students as
    well.

    Goals and Content of the Scholarship

    The Graduate School of Economics at Kyoto University offers scholarships for BE-TU/ TIARA-TU/PS-TU/FEB-
    UGM/Econ-CMU/Econ-KU Master’s students to enrol in and take two-month intensive courses with credits

    Apart from the living expenses (approx. 60,000 JPY per month), airfare (students might need to book their own
    flights) shall be paid by Kyoto University. Other expenses related to domestic transportation, housing, and food

    Cooperation between BE-TU/ TIARA-TU/ PS-TU/FEB-UGM/Econ-CMU/Econ-KU and GSE, Kyoto University.
