The aim of the Phoenix Leader Education Program is the “development of global personnel who manage recovery from breakdown of people, society, and environment, caused by radiation disaster.”
The program is situated in Hiroshima and is based on the benefits and disasters of radiation to humans, including the atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It is also based on the Fukushima disaster and the University's response to it, realizing that there is a need for global leaders in the field of emergency response.
The program is located in Hiroshima and is a program in the Hiroshima University
The program collaborates with international universities, private companies, international organizations (including the IAEA), and I assume receives funding as such.
The program consists of a Radiation Disaster Medicine Course (4-year integrated PhD program), a Radioactivity Environmental Protection Course (5-year integrated PhD program), and a Radioactivity Social Recovery Course (5-year Integrated PhD program)
The program targets students with global skills, interdisciplinary skills, and management skills, with the goal of developing global leaders.
The students who complete the program receive a PhD after either 4 or 5 years, as described above
I have not found any opinions in the news about the program but several other educational institutions have released announcements about the program appearing to be advertisements.
