Scholarships & Fellowships


WMU Sasakawa Fellowships 2009


In an effort to improve the quality of maritime experts around the world, The Nippon Foundation supports two programs at the World Maritime University. First, we sponsor a scholarship program that enables people from developing countries to obtain a two-year master's degree in maritime affairs, which they can then use to improve the level of maritime expertise in their home countries. Secondly, we have created three endowed chairs, enabling the university to raise the level of its education with a PhD-level course in maritime affairs.

In order to facilitate contact and at the same time protect the privacy of the people on this list, we ask that those who wish to contact them use the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of this page to send us your name, email address and a brief message. We will make sure that the scholar receives your message. However, we leave any response up to the individual.
