  The 2026 University Awards Night will be held on Tuesday May 12th, at The Japan Foundation, Sydney.
  

  At this annual event the Society presents Awards to outstanding students of Japanese studies nominated by seven universities in the greater Sydney region.

  We are honoured to have our Patron, the Consul-General of Japan in Sydney, Mr. YAMANAKA Osamu, to present the Awards and also make some remarks.
  

  The Awards ceremony will be followed by networking over drinks and finger food.
  

  This event is always a wonderful evening and a highlight of our year. As well as the students, their friends and family, and their lecturers, we hope AJS members and friends will join us to celebrate the success of these students and recognize the strong commitment to Japanese studies in our region. Registrations are now open so please register (and pay online or to our bank account).

  Thanks go to our corporate member The Japan Foundation, Sydney, for hosting us in their space.

  We look forward to seeing you.
