Japan-World Bank Graduate Scholarship Program 2010,Japan
Job Description:
Since 1995 Yokohama National University has been providing prominent mid-career engineering professionals with chances to study infrastructure management under its inter-faculty Master’s Degree Program in Infrastructure Management (IMP) funded by the Japanese Government and administered by the World Bank Institute. Fifty-three scholars have already graduated and have been actively working in their countries with their full knowledge and experience gained in Japan.
Infrastructure plays an important role in economic growth, improving social welfare and equitable distribution of income among people and regions. Appropriate infrastructure management is crucial to fully utilize expensive infrastructure for the above objectives. Yokohama is one of the most suitable places to study such subject because the development of the city itself shows the evidence of the importance of infrastructure development and its appropriate management.
IMP is an interdisciplinary program jointly organized by graduate schools of law, economics, business administration, engineering and environment. Stress is placed on management rather than engineering. The program offers lectures in the fields of engineering, environment, economics, management and law, together with practical Japanese, mathematics, computer techniques and other basic subjects in the first year. During the second year, students engage in internship programs related to their areas of studies. Finally students submit thesis, which is a requirement for the completion of the Master’s program. Presently students are from Africa, Asia and Europe. Mid-career engineering professionals who have active role in their country’s development in the World Bank developing member countries are eligible to apply for IMP.
