Outline of Research at the Start |
The proposed research is a mixed-methods study investigating the relationship between internationalization in Japanese universities and international migration to Japan. This comparative case study will use a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods to explore: (1) the growth of the migrant community in Japanese universities, (2) the experiences of members of this community, and (3) understand universities’ broader role in coordinating with local and national governments to administrate the incorporation of the migrant community.

Current Status of Research Progress |
Current Status of Research Progress
3: Progress in research has been slightly delayed.
Reason
The conceptual portion of the research was unusually fruitful, which led to some publication opportunities and new avenues for empirical research. As a result, in addition to the planned publications, I was able to create a successful presentation at an international conferece and a third manuscript is in preparation to be submitted to a Q1 journal in the coming months. In addition, Tokyo data collection is proceeding but has not yet been completed. As a result, the regional data collection is only just beginning, which represents a slight delay relative to the original research plan.
|
Strategy for Future Research Activity |
In AY2024, I plan to complete data collection in both Tokyo and the Regional areas, complete data analysis, and begin the dissemination of results in both journals and presentations.
