Requirements for Application

We can accept in our Research Group one to three new graduate students every year. See the admission information of our Graduate School. We welcome also post-doctoral research projects. In both graduate and post-graduate cases, we select projects aligned with our essential intent and objectives. Applicants are thus encouraged to write their research proposal after having studied carefully the information and references provided on this website. It is also possible to consult us directly by email for research orientation. The collaboration of a co-supervisor in another department of Kyoto University may be necessary in order to offer a complementary expertise and ensure the best guidance for the proposed plan (see current projects and co-supervisions).
