Japanese urge program applicants
Japanese government officials visited the University of Kansas yesterday to promote a program that brings college graduates to Japan to work with local governments or teach English.
Members of the Japan Exchange and Teaching Program met in the Kansas Union with officials from the Office of Study Abroad, the Office of International Studies and Programs, the University of Missouri, the Universities and the Applied English Center.
JET program participants either assist municipal governments in planning and carrying out international cultural exchange activities or teach English in Japanese junior and senior high schools as assistant teachers, said Micho Kaku, man in the implementation division of JET.
This year, three KU graduates are participating in the program. JET visitors urged KU officials to tell more students about the program.
Kaku said the program's goal was to foster understanding between
Japan and other countries by intensifying foreign language education in Japan and by providing opportunities to Japanese youth to learn about the countries directly from citizens of those countries.
Osamu Kageura, a Japanese Ministry of Education, Science and Culture official, said the program would offer opportunities to college graduates to learn about Japanese society and culture.
Participants in the program earn about $2,300, almost twice what Japanese earn on the average after they graduate from college, Kageura said. Participants also receive a free round-trip flight to Japan.
Although living in big cities in Japan can be expensive, $2,300 a month is enough to live on there. Kageura said.
He also said that many people who joined the program would receive job offers from multinational companies that had businesses in Japan.
Although knowledge of the Japanese language is recommended for participants, it is not necessary for those who teach English. Kageura
said an important criterion for the applicants was to be adaptable enough to live in a totally different culture.
For this year's program, 4,282 people applied from Australia, Canada, France, Ireland, Germany, New Zealand, Britain and the United States, and 2,284 were selected.
Kageura said program organizers were going to expand the program to allow 3,000 participants next year. They also are planning graduates in the program this year.
The program is for a year but can be renewed up to three years.
Clyde Stoltenberg, co-director for East Asian Studies, who met with Japanese officials, and joined him when he than taked classes for a summer.
"I think that there is no substitute for spending time in Japan or in any other countries in which students have interest," he said.
More information is available from the Consul General of Japan in Kansas City, Mo., at (816) 471-0111. The application deadline is Dec. 20.
