Top 5 Fully Funded Internships in Japan 🇯🇵 | How I Got Them with No Japanese!

[Music]

Long time no see and welcome to my

channel. And in this video we are going

to be talking about internship.

Internships are very important because

they look amazing on your resume. And in

this video I will be talking and telling

you about five internships which are

absolutely amazing. Okay, they are fully

funded. They are for all fields like

STEM, humanities, social sciences. They

will cover your flight tickets, your

accommodation, your daily allowances and

they are rather easy to get. They do not

need any Japanese and yeah, all in all

they're perfect. they would look amazing

on your resume and they're really good

for you. I should also mention that I

have personally done some of these

internships and they had a very huge

impact on my resume and that is also how

I got the master scholarship to study in

University of Tokyo. Now I also think

that they're very easy to get. You know

why? Because apparently nobody looks up

internships in Japan. they are very rare

and that's why I feel like the

competition is rather less compared to

US and UK. So you have a very good

chance. So just just go through this

video and tell me what you think. So

number one is the matey internship

program. It is basically an internship

program which is directly funded by the

government of Japan. It is mainly for

developing nations like India, Pakistan,

Bangladesh. So you need to check that

out for yourself. But this is an amazing

internship. I did it as well in 2021.

Basically what you do is that you work

for a company and they invite you to

Japan to work here for 3 months. And you

know sometimes they also offer you a job

afterwards after you graduate or

whatever, right? And it is completely

funded. They pay for your flights, they

pay for your accommodation. You get

money every day. The work is very nice.

you get a lot of exposure and it's like

a very stressfree working environment

under this internship. This is also for

humanities, social sciences, law, public

relation, international relations,

software engineering or it can be

anything you know depending on what the

companies are looking for. Also one more

thing that this also does not require

any Japanese. If you have Japanese that

is a very good thing but if you do not

is perfectly fine. They basically accept

students twice a year which is also a

very good thing. So I will obviously

post the links that you can check out in

the description. There is also no

application fee. So if you are applying

you do not have to pay anything and the

application process is pretty easy and

pretty simple. Basically you just submit

an online application explaining your

details, your past experiences, why you

want to come to Japan and if they like

it, they are going to invite you for an

interview. Then you're going to have a

very general interview and after that

interview, you know, they're going to

try to find you a suitable company. It

is a good internship. I personally loved

it and I also think it had a very great

impact on my career. Okay, let's move on

to the next one. The next internship is

called the research internship by

the National Institute of Genetics in

Japan. I also did this internship in I

think 2021 or 2022. And this is also

very very prestigious internship

entirely funded. Now who is this

internship for? This internship is

mainly for the people who are applying

in the field of biomedical sciences such

as

biioinformatics, DNA sequencing, genome

sequencing or this internship is also

for artificial intelligence, machine

learning, you know, software engineering

people because this is a genetics

laboratory. Needless to say, it is only

for STEM people. However, very very

prestigious. They pay you a lot of

money. They pay you flights. They pay

you everything. You do not need

Japanese. And how it works is that you

basically come to Japan and you work

under a professor. Okay. Do you know the

best part of this internship? According

to me, the National Institute of

Genetics is literally on the base of

Mount Fuji. So, you get a spectacular

view of Mount Fuji. Okay. However, I

should say that this is a very

prestigious but it is kind of difficult

to get. Uh I remember when I was

applying there were approximately 2400

applications and only 10 were selected

overall. Uh but if you do get selected

it's an amazing internship and there is

no application fee. It's also a very

simple process. You just go online, you

submit some documents, you submit a

letter of recommendation and if you get

selected then you just get selected.

There's no interview at least during my

time. Okay, let's move on to the third

one. The third type of internships are

the internships which are provided by my

university, University of Tokyo. Amazing

place. 10 on 10 recommend. But these

internships are also for social

sciences, humanities, software

engineers, STEM, physics, chemistry,

everybody. Okay, these internships are

for everyone and they are called

UTRIP or UTRIP and they are called UTSIP

or UTSIP. Okay, they are two different

types of internships. UTRIP in

particular is only for STEM because it

is started by Graduate School of

Science. However, UTSIP is for all kinds

of graduate students. It has all kinds

of fields of study. They are also

absolutely free and amazing in every

way. I feel like they're easy to get

because literally nobody knows about

them guys. It's just a secret between

you and me. If you do get selected, you

come to Japan, you stay in Tokyo and you

do research in the University of Tokyo.

And these programs are very fun. You

know, you get to travel a lot. They

arrange kind of field day trips for you.

So, it's just a very good program.

Another program which is very similar to

these two is called the U Tokyo Amjen

Scholars program and that is also very

famous program. Amjen is like an

organization which kind of like supports

students and it is also completely

funded. If you do get some time you can

look up UTIP, you can look up UTSIP and

you can look up U Tokyo Amjun Scholar

Program. This Amjun scholar program is

also there for Kyoto University and some

universities in Singapore as well. So do

look it up before I move on to the next

internship. A lot of people ask me how

can we use these internships to get a

lot of exposure to our advantage. Right?

So basically guys I think how I used it

was that I had a very low GPA but I did

a lot of these internships in order to

improve my resume so that I can apply

for the next scholarship. It is also a

fully funded scholarship by the

government of Japan. amazing thing and I

feel like these internships are a very

strong reason why I got that

scholarship. If you are also interested

in knowing how to get the scholarship

then I have made a very nice and a very

curated specialized course on how to get

the max scholarship. It is a very

detailed course and basically it has

helped a lot of students in getting the

scholarship in the past two or three

years. I should be mentioning the link

of that course in the description and it

has explained everything you know how to

write loss how to write application form

basically it has got you covered in

every way so you know check it check it

out if you are interested and let's move

on to the next internship next

internship is OST internship from the

Okinawa Institute of Science and

Technology and I love this internship

from all my heart you know why because

it's in Okinawa like probably the most

beautiful place on earth and it is also

completely funded internship. I should

mention that it is for STEM people only

like from people belonging to a sciences

background like you know neuroscience,

bioinformatics, software engineering and

and all of these science related field

physics, chemistry, materials

engineering all of these. However, this

is also very very prestigious internship

probably the most prestigious internship

that you can get in Japan. It is for a

six month period and again everything is

covered guys like this is obviously the

same for all my internships but you do

not pay a single thing. So when I was

doing this internship right I was

actually able to save some money for

myself and you know use it for all sorts

of things. So all in all a perfect

internship and it's in Okinawa guys you

you should definitely apply. It would be

the trip of your lifetime. You know only

the best students get in but you have to

try you have to go for it and you know

just hope for the best. The deadline to

apply for the oy internship is around

March and April but you should look at

it by yourself. U before I move on to

the next internship do you want to see

the view? It's I I think it's amazing.

So that's the Tokyo

Tower and uh it is a rather cloudy day

today but yeah good view right that's

the rainbow bridge if you can see

it. The next internship is very similar

to It is called the Reichen IM labs

internship. Again a fully funded

internship and it is for approximately 3

months. Now let's talk about who is this

for. This internship just like NID is

for medical, biomedical, software

engineering, artificial intelligence,

machine learning, bioinformatics. It can

be a little bit difficult to get but how

it works is that you come to Japan and

for 3 months you do pursue research in

laboratories of IM. Um a very very nice

internship and uh yeah that's pretty

much it about this one. Now talking

about fields like MBA and then software

engineering and marketing and operations

you know these things also have a lot of

internships but they are not restricted

to research they are not restricted to

universities. So for example some of the

really good software engineering

internships can be by ben by Toyota they

black rockck there by Morgan Stanley and

the same goes for areas like finance

investment banking or you know any

anything like that then what you need to

target is internships by companies such

as I personally did a software

engineering internship at woven by

Toyota amazing internship amazing

internship okay so you can look into

that it is for foreigners they provide

visa sponsorship for absolutely free.

They also provide a ton of money.

These companies are your targets because

they have specific internship vacancies

for foreigners. Okay, so that is what

you need to do. Maybe I will make

another detailed video about how to get

corporate internships. Yeah, this video

was mainly for students who are trying

to do internships related to research.

That was it. That was my list about the

fully funded research internships in

Japan. In the comment section, I want

you to tell me which internship looks

most promising. And I also want you to

tell me what do you want to know more

about Japan. You know, I I love making

videos. And just just leave a comment. I

would really appreciate it what you

liked about the video, what you disliked

about the video. Please like, share,

subscribe, and uh I'll see you soon.

Bye.
