About The “Professor Josef Kreiner Hosei University Award for International Japanese Studies”
HIJAS holds several academic awards to invigorate the field of International Japanese Studies. The “Professor Josef Kreiner Hosei University Award for International Japanese Studies” is for emerging scholars residing outside of Japan.
In 2015 HIJAS launched an academic award to publicly celebrate Professor Josef Kreiner in his remarkable academic efforts to promote Japanese studies in Europe and at our institute. We welcome the nomination of publications (books, refereed journal articles, original chapters in an edited book) from emerging scholars residing anywhere outside of Japan. Every year we invite awardees to Hosei University for an award ceremony.
