2 years English open

Scholarships

Only the support routes relevant to this programme are listed. Amounts marked as references must be reconfirmed for the applicant's award year.

University of Tokyo scholarship for outstanding applicants (awarded through the admission screening)

Separate application

  • "Selected applicants with outstanding academic records will be awarded the scholarships from the University of Tokyo." Awarded on academic merit as judged in the admission screening.
  • Array
  • No separate application. "Allocation of scholarships will be undertaken during the screening process and scholarship offers will be made alongside the final result." Applying to the course is the application.
  • Number of awards is not published. An award is not guaranteed to any admitted applicant — only "outstanding" ones are selected, and self-supporting students bear their own costs.

Graduate School of Engineering nomination to scholarship sponsors

Separate application

  • "The Graduate School of Engineering will recommend a few selected students who demonstrate outstanding merit to the scholarship sponsors." This is a departmental statement about the International Admission Program generally.
  • Array
  • No separate application at the admission stage; nomination follows from the International Admission Program screening.
  • "a few selected students" — no number, no named sponsor list and no coverage terms are published for this course.

Admission Fee Exemption and Tuition Exemption (University of Tokyo)

Separate application

  • Array
  • The course guideline states: "Students can apply for exemption of entrance fee and tuition fees. The entrance fee could be exempted half of the full amount. Annual Tuition could be exempted either half or full amount." The General Application Guidelines add that "Submitting an application for admiss
  • "It is possible to apply for Admission Fee Exemption and Tuition Exemption at the University's admission desk during this period" (the designated admission procedures period, deadline 16 September 2027, tentative).
  • "Applicants should be aware that the chances of getting an admission fee and/or tuition exemption are low. In some cases, partial exemption may be granted in lieu of a full exemption." MEXT Scholarship students are exempt from these fees in any case. Note the internal conflict recorded in dataNotes: the course guideline caps the entrance-fee exemption at half, while the University's tuition and fees page is the governing reference.

Scholarships applied for after enrolment (self-supporting students)

Separate application

  • "Self-supporting students are responsible for their own fees and living expenses. However, there are a variety of scholarships that can be applied upon enrollment."
  • Array
  • Applied for after enrolment, via https://ois.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/students_life/selfsupported.html#English and https://www.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/en/soe/for-utstdnt . "The program encourages students to apply for scholarships."
  • Not awarded at admission and not guaranteed. The sibling Nuclear Engineering and Management department warns that "competition for those scholarships at the university of Tokyo is extremely intense."

MEXT Scholarship (Embassy Recommendation) — separate admission route, not part of this course

Separate application

  • "Those who wish to apply for this program should contact the Japanese embassy in your country and submit an application form and required documents to the embassy. Those who pass the preliminary selection by the embassy, please check the next process at our school in the following web page."
  • Array
  • Apply at the Japanese embassy in the applicant's home country first. This is a distinct admission procedure listed by the department alongside — not inside — the International Admission Program, and it is not covered by the 2027 Resilience Engineering course guideline, which names only University of Tokyo scholarships.
  • Recorded here for completeness because the department lists it as a funding path into the same department. It is not a route of this course; an applicant using it does not apply through the International Admission Program guideline described in this record.
Scholarships, nominations and fee exemptions are competitive unless the programme states that every admitted student receives the award. Admission on its own does not guarantee funding.
