TheNational Institute of Informatics of Tokyo(NII) offers every year to students of the UPV theoption to send doctoral or master’s students to Tokyo to do an internship collaborating with their laboratories and research teams.
The NII is a prestigious center with a great international projection, receiving each year more than 100 students for these internships, coming from world-class universities around the worldincluding the UPV.
The NII usually publishes two calls for applications per year, one in the fall (for stays beginning in the spring-summer) and one in the spring (for stays beginning in the fall).
The UPV, as a collaborating entity, can send applications from master’s or doctoral students in each edition. Once the applications have been received, the NII itself and the research groups will select the candidates from among all the proposals submitted by all the universities with which the NII has signed collaboration agreements.
Due to the profile of the internships, they are mainly aimed at master’s or doctoral students in any area ofComputingoTelecommunicationsas well asMathematicsyPhysics.
- These stays are not specifically designed for TFM.
- The approach is rather that of an extracurricular internship or voluntary research stay, for personal experience and curriculum.
- Research and work topics are already set and cannot be adapted. Students must collaborate in teams and areas of work that are already in place.
- Participants in these internships are integrated into a very international environment and interact and collaborate with world-class researchers and students.
