Who should I ask to submit Nanojapan recommendation letters in support of my application?
All NanoJapan applicants must submit two letters of recommendation along with their online application, resume, and university transcript for their application to be considered complete. The first letter must be from a professor, research advisor, academic advisor, or other mentor at your current college or university. If you have previously done academic research one of your recommendation letters must be from your research advisor or research mentor. This letter should speak to your interest in academic research, and particularly the field of nanotechnology, the type of research you conducted, and provide a frank assessment of your research progress and performance. Your second letter of recommendation should be from a professor, teacher, advisor, counselor, or other mentor who knows you well. This could be an individual at your current university, high school, employer, or from another organization that you belong to. Recommendation letters should not be submitted by family or frien
