JASSO (JApan Student Services Organization) is sponsoring an exchange between UF and Kyoto University (sometimes ranked one of the top two universities in all of Asia). About seven agricultural engineering students from Japan will visit the week of September 10th to 17th.
There is also money to help support the visit of up to four UF students to Kyoto for a week. The money is 80,000 yen per student (about $750) so it will not pay the whole expenses. But this would be a good start for what might be professionally and personally an informative and interesting trip. (Kyoto was the capital of Japan from 794 - 1868 and was the one place off-limits to bombers for cultural reasons during WWII, so it is the place to see in Japan.) The money has to be spent before October, so we would like to send the students before the Fall semester starts.
If you think you might be interested in this opportunity to travel, please contact ABE professors Reza Ehsani ( ehsani@ufl.edu ) or John Schueller ( schuejk@ufl.edu ) for more details.
Scholarships, awards, internships, meetings and other opportunities for BE and AOM students in the UF-ABE Department.
