Kyoto University has striven to develop the Hakubi Project to foster and support early-career researchers since 2009. The Hakubi Center is now accepting applications for positions as a researcher in the Global category with the aim of fostering future world-class researchers at Kyoto University.
Note: In addition to the call for applicants for positions in Global category, which is the original type offered by the Hakubi Project begun in 2015, Kyoto University has started accepting applications for what has been called the Tenure-Track positions which is a part of the Leading Initiative for Excellent Young Researchers (LEADER) Program subsidized by the Government of Japan's Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT). Positions in the category known as Tenure-Track will be described in detail in the information on the LEADER Program homepage (https://www.jsps.go.jp/english/e-le/index.html).
In the 14th of call for applications, we received 326 applications and decided to hire 20 people (men: 12, women: 8). Kyoto University promotes gender equality. We welcome applications from female researchers. In the 15th of call for applications, the aim is to have at least half of the recruits be women. As part of its effort to promote gender equality at the university, in accordance with the provisions of Article 8 of the Act on Ensuring Equal Opportunity and Treatment between Men and Women in Employment (Equal Employment Opportunity Law), women will be given priority in employment if their evaluation is equal to that of a male candidate in the selection process. If an applicant has interrupted research due to any causes, such as childbirth, childcare, or nursing care etc., upon the applicant’s request, this will be taken into consideration in the screening of research achievements.
Research projects in all fields of the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences are welcome. These include all academic research, from basic to applied.
Researchers with a doctoral degree (including those without the degree who have academic research ability equivalent or superior to that of a doctoral degree holder) are eligible. Applicants of all nationalities are welcome. However, those who have been employed as a Hakubi researcher by the Hakubi Project in the past are not eligible to apply. It is not possible to apply in both the Global and Tenure-Track categories at the same time.
Those candidates selected as researchers in the Global category of the Hakubi Project will be affiliated with the Hakubi Center, but their research itself will be conducted at their respective departments; host departments within Kyoto University.
In addition, the host teacher who provides guidance and is the mentor for you in the host department on matters that need to be addressed for the smooth implementation for your research, such as administrative procedures and securing a research location. Due to their role, host teachers must, in principle, be in an employment relationship with Kyoto University. Each applicant is encouraged to contact the host researcher of his or her choice at the same time of applicant to obtain their informal consent. The informal consent of the host researcher must be obtained by the interview screening at the latest.
