Figure 1

Financial support to cover participation expenses:
UTRIP participants will be granted financial support to cover their costs and expenses in three forms: (1) The Graduate School of Science (GSS) Scholarship for UTRIP-Related Expenses ("GSS-UTRIP Scholarship"), (2) the FOTI Award (Friends of Todai, Inc.), and (3) the Daiwa Securities Group Inc. Scholarship for the University of Tokyo Summer Internship Program Participants ("Daiwa Securities Scholarship"). Please note that the Daiwa Securities Scholarship is applicable to students who are currently enrolled in one of the universities preliminarily designated by the sponsor (Daiwa Securities Group Inc.). Also, the FOTI Award is applicable to U. S. students who apply for UTRIP and intend to receive the award. When an applicant is selected to receive either the Daiwa Securities Scholarship or the FOTI Award, he or she cannot concurrently hold a GSS-UTRIP Scholarship. A GSS-UTRIP Scholarship will be applicable when an application to either the Daiwa Securities Scholarship or the FOTI award is rejected by the sponsor.
