Grant Activity: Teach two undergraduate and/or graduate courses in field of specialization per semester. Courses meet once a week for 90 minutes. This reduced teaching load (normal load for Fulbright lecturing grantees in Japan is four courses) allows grantees to conduct research on a topic of their choice. The research project should be consistent with the grantee's area of expertise, and the project should be feasible, especially with regard to language, time and venue constraints. The proposal must also make clear why residence in Japan is essential to undertaking the research.

Language: Japanese proficiency, if needed for research.

|
Additional Qualifications: Applicants must have at least 3 years of university or college teaching experience beyond Ph.D. Teaching at a community college counts toward the required 3 years. Teaching assistant work does not qualify.

Location: Affiliation to be finalized by the Japan-U.S. Educational Commission.

Length of Grant: 5 months or 10 months

Comments: While applicants are urged to obtain an invitation from potential host institutions to be submitted with their applications, the Japan-U.S. Educational Commission will finalize all affiliation arrangements. Grantees are required to attend a 2-day group orientation in Japan, as well as a midyear conference.
