The main research areas of the doctoral program are International Finance and Development, International Security, and Science and Technology. The program aims to nurture highly skilled researchers in law and politics and economics. In addition, it aims to foster cross-cutting, multidisciplinary, and practical skills for policy-making.<\/p>\n<h5>Social demands<\/h5>\n<p>Globalization and major changes in the global environment are presenting modern society with increasingly diverse and complex challenges. Dealing with these challenges demands an advanced skillset\u2014the ability to identify quickly and accurately the key issues amidst complex phenomena, to apply sophisticated research skills to establish the relevant questions, and to synthesize expert knowledge from various fields to create a set of options for solutions. A choice must then be made from amongst the options set while building social consensus around that choice through communication, and the chosen option implemented expeditiously with an international perspective. Given this new level of complexity and diversity, it is hardly surprising that a growing ratio of international institutions and government policy practitioners are doctorate-holders.<\/p>\n<h5>Expectations for Students<\/h5>\n<p>Responding to these social demands, our doctoral program trains students in the advanced research skills necessary to develop original questions from their research, construct and assess potential solutions that synthesize expert knowledge from various disciplines, and move these solutions quickly into practice with an international perspective, communicating with diverse stakeholders. Our graduates are policy professionals superbly equipped to handle specialist tasks and take the lead in core areas of society\u2014whether they are leading policy development on diverse and complex social issues critical to state operation, representing the government in difficult international negotiations, leading international discussion at international organizations and research institutions, leading major multinational corporate projects that stimulate industry, or effecting social transformation as social entrepreneurs. The program focuses on International Finance and Development, International Security, and Science and Technology as areas where these social demands are particularly strong and where there is a need for close international partnership. https:\/\/www.pp.u-tokyo.ac.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/220620_mppip_doct_100.pdf<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"section\">\n<h3 id=\"doctoral2\">Key Features<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The Program can be completed entirely in English<\/li>\n<li>20 credits and doctoral thesis, 3-year program<\/li>\n<li>Degree to Confer: Doctor of Philosophy in Public Policy<\/li>\n<li>Annual Intake: 8 places<\/li>\n<li>Admission Requirements include: a) Master\u2019s thesis or its equivalent b) Foundation of specialized knowledge of either Law and Politics or Economics at master&#8217;s level is required to begin the program<\/li>\n<li>3 Research Areas: \u201cInternational Security\u201d, \u201cInternational Finance and Development\u201d and \u201cScience and Technology Policy\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h3 id=\"doctoral4\">Career<\/h3>\n<div><strong>Past Placements<\/strong><\/p>\n<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"877\">\n<tbody>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\" width=\"877\">University of Battambang \/ Lecturer<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\">\u6771\u4eac\u5927\u5b66\u6771\u6d0b\u6587\u5316\u7814\u7a76\u6240\/\u7279\u4efb\u7814\u7a76\u54e1 (Institute for Advanced Studies on Asia \/ Project Researcher)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\">\u5185\u95a3\u5e9c\/\u7dcf\u5408\u8077 (Cabinet Office, Government of Japan \/ Career-track Position)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\">Japan Digital University<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\">Sasakawa Peace Foundation<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\">Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\">The University of Tokyo<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\">Temple University Japan Campus<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\">\u4e00\u822c\u793e\u56e3\u6cd5\u4ebaCRD\u5354\u4f1a (Credit Risk Database)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\" width=\"877\">Capital University of Economics and Business\uff08\u9996\u90fd\u7d4c\u6e08\u8cbf\u6613\u5927\u5b66\uff09\/Assistant Professor<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\">\u540d\u53e4\u5c4b\u5927\u5b66 (Nagoya University)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\" width=\"877\">Regional Office of Asia and Pacific, Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) \/ Economist<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\">Hitotsubashi University<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\">CGIAR<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\">Reserve Bank of India<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr height=\"32\">\n<td height=\"32\">AMRO (ASEAN +3 Macroeconomic Research Office)\/Economist<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"doctoral3\">Admissions<\/h3>\n<p><span><strong>*The admissions information has been moved to the webpage below.<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pp.u-tokyo.ac.jp\/en\/admissions\/doctoral-course-graduate-research-students-program\/\">https:\/\/www.pp.u-tokyo.ac.jp\/en\/admissions\/doctoral-course-graduate-research-students-program\/<\/a><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h3>Contact Information<\/h3>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">PhD Desk, Graduate School of Public Policy<\/span> University of Tokyo ppin.j[at]gs.mail.u-tokyo.ac.jp<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"section\"><a class=\"table-anchor--link\" href=\"#top\">Top of the page\u25b2<\/a><\/div>\n<div id=\"extensionsWeblioEjBx\" style=\"position: absolute;
