New Success of the Law School – Scholarship to our Student for his Participation in an Educational Mission to Japan

For the second year running, the Law School of Neapolis University in Cyprus is taking part in the Japanese MIRAI Scholarship Program. The Law School, in collaboration with the Embassy of Japan in Cyprus and under the coordination of Assistant Professor of Law, Mr. Thomas-Nektarios Papanastasiou (former Fellow of the Japanese Government), has chosen the Law School student Mr. Eleftherios Xinaris, to participate in an educational mission to Japan. Mr. Xinaris is a postgraduate student of the Law Program “International & European Financial Law” and was selected after being interviewed to take part this December, along with 84 other students from around the world, in special seminars and educational activities in Japan, on matters of policy, history, economy, business and diplomatic relations of modern Japan.

The ‘MIRAI’ program is a pioneering initiative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan, which, in collaboration with local embassies around the world, chooses Universities to collaborate with on the selection of students who demonstrate outstanding performance and are interested in Japan’s international role.

Neapolis University’s Law School congratulates its student on the success of representing the School and Cyprus in the ‘MIRAI’ Program and thanks the Embassy of Japan in Cyprus for its kind cooperation. We expect that this cooperation with the Japanese Foreign Ministry and the Japanese Embassy will continue with more actions in the future, with student / academic exchanges and educational activities between Universities and research centers of the two countries.
