As part of the Japan Scholar Program, a researcher from Kanazawa University visited universities and high schools in India and delivered lectures to local students.
The lectures introduced smart agriculture initiatives, including GX sericulture and the use of FSR (Field Scouting Robots).
In particular, the lectures attracted considerable interest at Dibrugarh University, which places a strong emphasis on life sciences and agriculture. Many students expressed their strong motivation to contribute to the Japan– India collaboration towards the creation of new industries.
It is hoped that these activities will serve as a valuable opportunity for exchanges with Japanese researchers and help foster greater interest among students in pursuing continuing their studies in Japan.
Japan Scholar Program
The Japan Scholar Program sends researchers affiliated with research institutions in Japan to universities and high schools in South Asia, where they give mock lectures and talks about studying in Japan. The program aims to promote Japan's research capabilities and educational strengths through lectures to local high school and university students.
