[Deadline: 2025/06/29] 1st Japan-Germany Frontiers of Engineering (JAGFOE) Symposium: Advanced Materials and Systems for Sustainable Society (November 25-28, 2025, Tokyo, Japan)
The Alexander von Humboldt Foundation invites early career researchers in the fields of engineering and applied sciences to apply to participate in a symposium jointly organised with the Engineering Academy of Japan, the Volkswagen Foundation, DWIH Tokyo and acatech.
The symposium aims to incentivise and establish international engagement and collaboration between early career researchers working in Germany and Japan on a broad range of disciplines, thereby encouraging the exchange of ideas across disciplinary and national boundaries. From November 25 to 28, 2025, participants will gather in Tokyo, Japan.
During the three days, participants will engage in cross-disciplinary discussions about the two session topics and their interlinkages. There will be considerable time for networking among all 30 researchers. All participants will have the opportunity to present their work with a poster. The Engineering Academy of Japan will also offer exclusive guided tours and panels discussions with the sponsor companies, such as DMG Mori Tokyo Global Solution Center.
After the symposium, all participants can apply for funding through the follow-up programme CONNECT to carry out future joint research activities with participants from the partner country.
