Stage One: YES Award
We award six brilliant students who would drive future society towards an ecotechnological orientation. Each YES Award recipient will receive US$3,000. Thereafter, if they want to pursue their academic career in Japan, and fulfill required conditions, they become eligible for an additional money award called the ¡ÈYES Award Plus¡É.
Stage Two: YES Award Plus
Any YES Award recipient becomes eligible for the YES Award Plus, an additional money award for unrestricted purposes if, within three years after he/she received the YES Award prize, he/she is admitted to either of the following:
- A credit-granting internship program offered by a Japanese company or research institute--a summer program for two and half months from May to mid-July. Internship participants will receive US$7,000 as the YES Ward Plus.
- A master¡Çs or doctoral course at a YES-designated Japanese graduate school under the auspices (sponsorship) of the Japanese government. These students will receive US$10,000 as the YES Award Plus.
