About

The Japan-IMF Scholarship Program for Advanced Studies is a two-year program intended to help Japanese nationals obtaining Ph.D. degrees in macroeconomics,finance, public finance, monetary economics, international economics, international trade, poverty Issues, political economy, or econometrics and preparing them to work as economists at the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

  • participate in a 10-13 week fully-paid summer internship at the IMF (after the third or fourth year of graduate study);
  • apply for and receive special consideration for the IMF’s Economist Program (EP).
