About JRS

General Description

The SATU Presidents' Forum International Secretariat launched the SATU Joint Research Scheme, or SATU JRS, in 2012 to provide a collaborative platform that facilitates academic research cooperation among SATU member universities.

JRS projects are funded by individual host universities. Each host university may provide funding or alternative types of support to implement a given project.

Aim

The SATU International Secretariat works as a networking platform to connect the scholars who share similar research interests. The aim of JRS is to help integrate resources to increase the quality, quantity, and global scope of the research being conducted at our member universities, with the goal of advancing the research achievements of the SATU community.
