The Swadesh DeRoy Scholarship is the annual scholarship award by the
Foreign Correspondents’ Club of Japan (FCCJ). It was created in honor of
a respected long-time journalist member to encourage and support
university students interested in entering the journalism field. Any current
undergraduate or graduate student in Japan, or any Japanese student
enrolled in an overseas journalism program, is eligible to apply. The award
money is intended to help students further their journalistic pursuits and
should be used for such purposes (e.g. language courses, travel, computer
purchase, books, living expenses during a journalism internship).
Students are not required to provide receipts or a detailed financial
accounting of how the money was spent, but a report to the Scholarship
Committee of how they used the funds is required.
For 2010-2011, First Prize will be 300,000 yen, Second Prize
will be 200,000 yen, and Third Prize will be 100,000 yen.
Additional prizes may be awarded at the discretion of the
judges.
Entries must be submitted no later than February 7, 2011.
Entries will be judged by a panel of veteran journalists in print, television
and
photography. The winning entry will be published in FCCJ’s monthly
magazine No. 1 Shimbun. Winners will also be asked to submit a short
article (200-300 words) detailing how the scholarship money is helping them
in their journalism pursuits by June 30 for publication in the club magazine
(comments may also be used in FCCJ promotion and fundraising materials).
Please see another sheet for entry details and background on the FCCJ.
(Students interested in journalism are also invited to apply for the FCCJ’s
Student
‘
Membership Program. Accepted students will be given a limited complimentary
membership to the club until July 1 each year.)
