This Giving Blueday, your contribution to the Center for Japanese Studies (CJS) will transform the lives of our students, offering them unparalleled academic and experiential opportunities.
Why Give to CJS?
🌸 Student Funding: Your generosity directly supports scholarships, fellowships, study abroad programs, and internships. By contributing to the Mellon Challenge Fund (719125), you empower students to explore, learn, and engage with the Japanese language, culture, and society.
🌸 Student Activities and Enrichment: Donations to our Strategic Fund (301634) fuel a vibrant array of student activities, academic programs, and research initiatives. These funds also support public events and outreach, enhancing students' educational journey and broadening perspectives.
Founded in 1947, CJS is proud to be the oldest interdisciplinary center in the United States dedicated to Japanese Studies. We are committed to nurturing both graduate and undergraduate students through a diverse offering of Japan-related courses, funding opportunities, and immersive experiences.
As a vital hub of Japan-related resources at the University of Michigan, CJS also supports faculty and researchers, facilitating an interdisciplinary approach to understanding Japan and its role in the world today.
