UNU/KIRIN Fellowship Programme in Food Science and Technology
|
|
|
This twelve-month training programme is organized annually at the National Food Research Institute (NFRI) in Tsukuba, Japan. Since 1993, the Kirin Brewery Company generously supports the programme, which trains five researchers from developing countries, mostly in the Asia-Pacific region, per year. Fellows are assigned to one of NFRI's laboratories where they work on individual research projects with relevance to the work of their home institutions under the supervision of experienced NFRI scientific staff. An innovative feature of the Kirin sponsorship is that the home institutions of UNU fellows are provided with financial support to enable the fellows to continue their research upon their return to their respective home countries.
