MIT Japan Program Introduces
New Technical Japanese Course

        The MIT Japan Program announces a new technical
Japanese summer intensive course: Technical Japanese for
Materials Science and Related Engineering, which includes
chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, and physics. A
second course, which is being offered for the sixth
successive summer, will be Technical Japanese for Computer
Science and Electrical Engineering.

        The goal of these courses is to enhance America's
ability to cooperate and compete with Japan. They are
designed for scientists and engineers with knowledge of the
target technical fields who already possess a solid
foundation in speaking and reading Japanese and who wish to
obtain the ability to locate, read, analyze, and report on
science and technological developments that are increasingly
available only in Japanese.

        The MIT Japan Program, which developed these unique
courses, was established in 1981 in order to educate
American scientists, engineers, and industrial managers
about Japan and to promote closer ties between them and
their Japanese counterparts. It is now the largest and most
comprehensive center of applied Japanese studies in the
United States.

        The two courses will run concomitantly, June 14
through August 6. Tuition is $3,300, with generous financial
aid available. Application deadline is March 15, 1993. For
further information or an application, contact Susan L.

Project, MIT Japan Program, E38-762B, Cambridge, MA 02139.
