I made it to the second step now and must go to my ambassy to do languages examinations in both Japanese and English. I hope I can do great there. I am from France, and apply for a research (doctorate) in human sciences.

Hi Azalia! Thank you very much for your suggestions. This is by far the best video I have seen regarding the MEXT research plan format. However, I am a little bit concern about the length. Mine has 4 pages. The last two pages are for project planning (a table) and the list of references. Do you think is it too long for MEXT requirements? Thanks in advance for your help and time. Cheers!
@ayziezaha3 жыл бұрын
Yes, page length was also an issue for me back then. For Malaysian applicants we were limited to only 3 pages, so do check if your embassy has specific page limits as well. For me, I cut out alot of my references. For the table planning, if possible it does not need to be too specific as well (if that is taking up the space). Hope this helps

I have a question.. Does our research have to be related to an issue in Japan or an issue that includes Japan ? (Since its a Japanese scholarship)... for example I'm a business student from the pacific and would like to conduct research on specific international business relationship between Japan and the Pacific... I'm just wondering if that's okay or should I centralize the entire research to a specific topic regarding Japan.
@ayziezaha3 жыл бұрын
In my opinion, the issue should be inclusive of Japan. Doesn't have to be centralized on Japan only, bt highlight how the research can help benefit the country etc. This will help when they ask why you want to study there in the first place and help your chances abit.

Hi Azalia, One question just to finish my draft. The ≪Guide for Creating a Field of Study and Research Plan Sheet/作成要領≫ bubble, that appears in the Field of Study and Research Plan doc, can I erase it or should I leave it there and narrow even more my draft? I have my 2 pages ready but don´t know if I can touch and erase those guides to expand my draft correctly, especially now that they ask us to send everything digitally. Hope you can answer me. Thank you for making this kind of video.

Thank you for the video. Question: Is it supposed that this proposal will be what you will actually be doing during your PhD or is it just an evaluation of your capacities? I mean, it is hard for me to imagine designing my PhD research without even knowing my advisor in person and without real research experience in the field. Thank you.
@ayziezaha4 жыл бұрын
From my experience, the proposal will definitely change here and there according to your program and SV. I agree that it is to evaluate how much thought you have put into your research, and also for potential SVs to see if it is something they are also interested in as well.
@Gargoloso4 жыл бұрын
@@ayziezaha so the answer is almost yes, your actual reaserch field will be based on that proposal, you cannot change topic once you are in, right? (by the way thank you for answering so soon!)
@ayziezaha4 жыл бұрын
@@Gargoloso from me and my husband's experience, whether you can change it or not after enrollment is up to you and your supervisor (sv). Everything is up to them from that point onwards and MEXT won't interfere. My husband even changed his sv after enrolling because he wanted to do a different topic (after plentiful discussions). As long as you can talk it out with your sv then it is still flexible in my opinion.

Thanks a lot for the informative video. I have a question regarding the length of the research plan. In the document it is mentioned: "This sheet must be created within two pages. Additional materials may be attached if necessary. Both a single-side and dual-side printing will be acceptable." and there is no mention of only 3-page attachment being allowed. So do you suggest to attach a more detailed version of the proposal/research plan, which can reach up to 15 pages for example?
@ayziezaha4 жыл бұрын
The 3 page attachment guideline is for applications in Malaysia, so it might be varied according to each country. I do not reccomend however attaching a 15 paged proposal as it might be too long for the committee to go through considering the number of applications they have to review. As always, keep ot short and simple. Hope this helps
