  • Asian Development Bank–Japan Scholarship Program Brochure For
    MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR GENERAL The Asian Development Bank (ADB)–Japan Scholarship Program (JSP) was established in April 1988 with financing from the Government of Japan. The program has so far provided more than 3,000 students from ADB’s developing member countries with an opportunity to pursue postgraduate studies in economics, business and management, science and technology, and other development-related fields at participating academic institutions in Asia and the Pacific. The 2014/2015 academic year marks the 21st anniversary of Mongolian citizens’ acceptance into the program. In the last 20 years, the ADB–JSP has helped 125 Mongolian citizens to advance their education in various academic institutions in Asia and the Pacific. Today, the ADB–JSP scholars are working in both the government and the private sector across Mongolia—in education, business, banking and finance, and other sectors—and are making positive contributions to the country’s development. We are proud of our scholars and we continue to stay in touch with them as they progress in their chosen careers. This ADB–JSP publication for Mongolia contains general information about the program, as well as success stories of some Mongolian ADB–JSP scholars and alumni. We believe that their stories will encourage many more Mongolian citizens to become ADB–JSP scholars and realize their dreams for Mongolia’s development. Together with the Mongolian ADB–JSP alumni, I wish to express our sincere gratitude to the government and the people of Japan for their generous contribution and continued support to the ADB–JSP. Ayumi Konishi Director General East Asia Department Asian Development Bank 3 THE SCHOLARSHIP Who are Eligible? • Must be a national of an ADB-borrowing member country (applicants from countries that are no longer ADB borrowers are not eligible for the scholarship).

    Nagoya University Hospital The first national university hospital in Japan to be accredited by Joint Commission International In Japan, national university hospitals are considered role models as integrated institutions for medical care, education and research. There are nearly 50 national university hospitals in Japan. Nagoya University Hospital in Tokai was the first hospital among them to be accredited by Joint Commission International (JCI). Nagoya University began as a temporary hospital and medical school in 1871.
