<About ISP>
ISP is an inbound research-based internship organized by GSS every summer for international undergraduates and master’s students. The
program launched in 2017 and is now in its fifth year. In 2020, unfortunately, it was cancelled due to the pandemic situation of COVID-19. We have shifted to an online program since last year.

<Feature of ISP2022 Online>
This year, your students are very welcomed to join virtually to learn about Graduate School of Science (GSS), Osaka university research activities being conducted in the six departments that make up the Graduate School of Science at Osaka University. The participants can freely choose and attend lectures offered by each professor. In addition, the participants can enjoy interacting with the current international students at GSS. We hope that ISP2022 will be a benefit and fulfilling opportunity for your students.
