Reischauer Institute of Japanese Studies will award competitive summer research grants for Harvard undergraduates in the humanities or social sciences for research and/or fieldwork, **relating directly to a senior honors thesis in an area of Japanese studies**. Typically, the period of research is 2 months, but this may vary.
