GUIDE FOR THE APPLICATION OF FOREIGNPOSTGRADUATE MASTER COURSE STUDENTS
The Nagasaki University Priority Graduate Programs (NUPGP) is a special course in the Graduate
School of Biomedical Sciences, Nagasaki University, started in October 2007. The NUPGP provides
opportunities for qualified graduates from overseas to study on Biological and Medicinal Sciences ofinfectious diseases, neuroscience, pain, drug addiction, environmental pollutants, anticancer target
molecules and medicinal natural products.
The objectives of the NUPGP are to produce competent persons in frontier of those fields as wellas impact knowledge of national policy planning in those fields when students go back to theirmother countries.
To efficiently meet the goals of the NUPGP, intensive training of a wide scope is provided to
students by Professors of Pharmaceutical Sciences in the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences.
Lectures and Instructions of NUPGP are given in English.
This is a call for application to a two-year Master Course for the academic year of 2017.
For deciding the field and the topic of research, applicants choose the appropriate supervisor(s)appearing on the List of Academic Staffs. Also, applicants must contact with the supervisor before
