Last year I had my own experience with international exchange at a
week-long intensive session on plasma physics held at the Universityof Tokyo. Several students from the U.S. and I participated incollaborative research, and lectures were given by professors fromboth the U.S. and Japan. During my stay, I attended a party forparticipants of UTokyo’s GSP (Global Summer Program) wherestudents from top universities from around the world came together.
It convinced me that UTokyo’s new vision for student exchanges arevaluable and have a huge impact on students and their international
outlook as they interact and converse with those from othercountries outside the classrooms such as at the dormitories. I believethat the most effective way for a student to grow personally is byconnecting with others their own age at their study abroad
destination. This is apparent from the reports written by the FUTI
scholarship recipients. I would like to encourage your continued
support of FUTI’s mission in discovering and helping to grow thesebright future global leaders of Japan and the United States.

Report on FUTI Summer Scholarship Programs
The FUTI Award Selection Committee has selected six UTokyo
students and eight U.S. students for this summer’s scholarshipprogram.
The number of UTokyo award recipients declined significantly
from nine in 2015 to six this year. This may be attributed
primarily to the newly implemented semester system at UTokyo.
To the award committee’s disappointment, while last year threeattended English language programs and two attended Global
Summer Programs (GSP) in the US, no UTokyo students havebeen selected for these programs this year. FUTI hopes award
recipients in these categories will increase in coming years.
FUTI Scholarship Committee Chair, Shigenori Matsushita
with UTSIP-Kashiwa participant, Roxanne Lai

Six UTokyo students participated in regular summer courses at
U.S. universities, such as Yale University, MIT, University ofCalifornia, Berkeley (UC Berkeley), Stanford University andUniversity of Michigan. Of the six award recipients, two were science or engineering majors, three were social science majors, and one was a
PEAK (Program in English at Komaba) student. Four are undergraduates and two were graduate students at the time of FUTI application
submission.
The award committee selected five U.S. awardees to support theirsummer internship at UTokyo’s laboratories. Three of theserecipients participated in the University of Tokyo ResearchInternship Program (UTRIP), which is hosted by professors in
the School of Sciences at UTokyo. One participated in the
University of Tokyo Internship Program in Kashiwa(UTSIP-Kashiwa) hosted by the Graduate School of Frontier
Sciences and one in another internship program. They were all
juniors or seniors majoring in science or engineering and comefrom Indiana University, Pennsylvania State University, Bates
College, University of Southern California, or UC Berkeley. The
selection process for FUTI awards was highly competitive. For
instance, the four UTRIP participants have been selected fromover 40 U.S. undergraduates, many of whom were top students
from leading universities in the U.S.

Research Internship, enjoys a hike with the MIT Outing ClubIn addition to these internship students, two Yale students (both juniors) and one UC Berkeley
student (sophomore) have been selected to participate in the Global Summer Program (GSP) courses
offered by UTokyo.
We sincerely hope that these U.S. and UTokyo students grow into global leaders and make important
contributions to the future of the world. We would like to take this opportunity to thank the
professors and staff at UTokyo and U.S. universities for their contribution to the programs. We arealso grateful to the individual donors in the U.S. and Japan whose generous donations to FUTI madeour scholarship programs possible.

Report on the Ito Foundation U.S.A.-FUTI Scholarship

Outside of his studies at UC Berkeley, Junpei Asai
volunteers at a creek rehabilitation projectThis year marked the first year of the Ito Foundation U.S.A.-FUTI
Scholarship program sponsored by the Ito Foundation USA. This
new program is intended to provide support for University ofTokyo students/alumni to study at a U.S. university for one
semester or more. Although this is the first year the scholarshiphas been offered, many applications from highly qualified
students were received in no small part thanks to the efforts ofstaff at the University of Tokyo administration, departments, andgraduate schools. Although the scholarship program is also open
to U.S. university students wishing to study mid- to long-term at
University of Tokyo, there were no applications from U.S.
students this year.

In reviewing this first year’s applications, it became clear that
there were three main types of applicants: First, UTokyo students
who, after graduation, wish to study at a U.S. university in a
specific field such as architecture or design; second, UTokyo graduates currently studying at a U.S. university and in need of financial
assistance; and third, UTokyo undergraduate students who for various reasons were not eligible for the UTokyo undergraduate study abroadsystem. All three groups reflect a need not adequately
met by the current UTokyo study abroad support system.
The Japan Student Services Organization (JASSO)
Scholarship, which has a relatively early application
deadline, is a popular scholarship with UTokyo undergraduate students, but the scholarship has a restriction
wherein recipients may not accept other scholarships
exceeding the amount given by JASSO. This stipulation
limits how much FUTI can award.
After careful consideration of the many highly-qualified
applicants, the members of the Scholarship Committee
ultimately awarded nearly full support to two students
and partial support to seven. It was decided that the
Minami Goto editing media footage at the Digital Media Center
scholarship will only cover a single academic year, butof the Columbia University film department
renewable for
qualifiedstudents. Those requiring assistance for subsequent years were asked to reapply the following year.
Support for most of the recipients started in the fall semester, but some started in the summer
semester. The scholarship students were nearly evenly divided between men and women this year.
As we were able to select outstanding students, the Ito Foundation U.S.A. and FUTI both share asense of fulfillment. We hope each of this year's recipients will accomplish an outstanding year.

Status of FUTI Research Funds
I. Collaboration, Exchanges and Outreach at the Kavli IPMU-Berkeley (PI: Prof. S. Murayama, UTokyo)
The Kavli IPMU-Berkeley Partnership was established to promotecollaboration between the Berkeley Center for Theoretical Physics (BCTP)
at the University of California, Berkeley and the Kavli Institute for the
Physics and Mathematics of the Universe (Kavli IPMU) at the University ofTokyo. They focus an exchange of graduate students and postdocs between
Berkeley and Tokyo. Each year, they try something new to keep theexchange program fresh and exciting.
During the FY2015-16 period, “Berkeley Week” was organized by Prof. H.
Murayama at Kavli IPMU by bringing five postdocs from Berkeley forJapanese students to interact with. Last year’s FUTI fund of $10,000 wasused to support the travel expenses of Berkeley postdocs to visit Kavli
IPMU for a weeklong informal interactions between them and graduate
students at Kavli IPMU.
In this FY2016-17 year, they plan to hold “Kavli IPMU Week” in Berkeley, the opposite from what they have done the last year. If this modelturns out to be successful, they would like to alternate between the two sites. The plan is to bring in graduate students from Kavli IPMU tovisit Berkeley for a week in the second week of January, with a series of talks and informal interactions in a similar fashion as the successful
experience of the Berkeley Week at Kavli IPMU.

2017 January FCMP Japan Tour: JPARC neutron + muon + HEP TourII. Cooperative Research and Education in Frontiers of Condensed Matter Physics (PI: Prof. Y. Uemura, Columbia University)
Since FY 2012, the Friends of UTokyo (Tokyo University) Inc. (FUTI) has provided grants every year to the international and cooperative
research and education activities at Columbia University and Tokyo University in the area of Condensed Matter Physics (CMP). This activity
includes a novel live/simulcast/video graduate lecture series “Frontiers of Condensed Matter Physics (F-CMP)” course and subsequentinternational workshops and student tours, as well as specific research collaboration by several graduate students after taking the F-CMP
course.
In the FY2015-16 period, the University of Tokyo, Prof. Atsushi Fujimori, Prof. Hideo Aoki (Physics Department, Hongo Campus) and Prof.
Takasada Shibauchi (Dept. of Advanced Materials Science, Kashiwa Campus) started a new F-CMP colloquia series, connecting the Hongo
Campus and Kashiwa Campus with a simultaneous broadcasting (simulcasting) technology, that was used by the F-CMP activities atColumbia, Rice and U. Oregon by Prof. Uemura who encouraged these Japanese colleagues to start a similar colloquia series in Japan. The
presentations have also been simultaneously broadcasted to Kyoto University, JAEA-JPARC (Tokai Mura) and KEK (Tsukuba). CollaborativeAnnual Report 2016

research activities involving Japanese graduate students continued in Japan as well as between US and Japan. Their collaboration efforts werematerialized in a Ph.D. thesis and a paper in Nature Communications.
The F-CMP Colloquia in Tokyo and F-CMP Lecture course at Columbia University continue in the upcoming FY2016-17 period. In order tosupport the F-CMP colloquia series at the University of Tokyo, they plan to send a few leading US scientists to Japan to serve as speakers of
the colloquia in the Fall 2016 and Spring 2017 semesters. At Columbia, they will organize another series of F-CMP lecture courses in the
Spring 2017 semester, in which they will broadcast a few talks given at the Tokyo F-CMP colloquia. They also propose to organize a tour of
3-4 graduate students of University of Tokyo who are attending the Tokyo F-CMP colloquia to visit Columbia and US research facilities
during the 2016-17 period.

III. Yale-U Tokyo Exchanges:
Yamakawa Kenjiro Memorial Lecture Travel Grant
Prof. N. Hiwatari (PI)This fiscal year, we start a new fund support to provide Yale faculty members a travel grant in the amount of $7,000 to deliver the Yamakawa
Kenjiro Memorial lecture at the University of Tokyo. The lecture series is aimed at establishing new ties and strengthening existing ones
between the two institutions. By disseminating information about research at Yale, the lectures have been helpful in introducing the scopeand depth of research conducted at Yale to graduate and undergraduate students at UTokyo whetting their appetite to conduct part of theirresearch or education at New Haven.

Fundraising Results of FY 2015-2016, and Revenue and Expenses
The annual fundraising campaign in FY 2015/16 (July 1, 2015 – June 30, 2016) concluded with a total revenue of approximately $316,000
which shows an unprecedented growth in contribution revenues compared with the previous five fiscal years ($116,000 in FY 2014/15,$110,000 in FY 2013/14, $131,000 in FY
250,000
2012/13, and $139,000 in FY 2011/12).
The substantial increase in contribution
revenues is attributable to a grant in theamount of $200,000 FUTI received from Ito
Foundation U.S.A. The grant was provided tosupport the “Ito Foundation U.S.A. – FUTI
Scholarship,” a new scholarship program
launched in FY 2015/16 with the purpose offinancially assisting students of UTokyo whowill study in the United States.

Friends of UTokyo, Inc.

Fundraising Results of FY 2015-2016, and Revenue and Expenses
We are sincerely thankful to Ito Foundation U.S.A., Shintech, Inc. and H. K. Chou Charity Foundation for their generous support of FUTI’s
mission. Above all, we extend a deeply grateful thank you to the many individual donors who continue to support our activities. As acondition to secure a grant from Ito Foundation U.S.A. in the future, it is required for FUTI to raise sufficient funds from an individual donorbase. While we did not reach a target of $100,000 this year, we appreciate each and every person who contributed to FUTI and encourage
their continued support of FUTI; without these individual donors, many of our programs including Ito Foundation U.S.A. – FUTI
Scholarship would not be possible.
Over the past several years, we have made great strides to nurture our programs. We are pleased to see the growth of our scholarship andresearch grant programs and the educational endeavors of our scholarship and grant recipients. It will be greatly rewarding for us to see
UTokyo increase its presence in the global community, which is becoming more and more competitive with many other well-recognized
universities across the globe, including those from advanced countries. FUTI is enormously thankful for your support of FUTI, whichenables us to send many highly qualified students into the global community.
