Abstract
Good education has given Japanese industry and research an advantage over many other countries. Using personal experience of education and research in Japan, the authors outline the present education process and some future developments. The pervasiveness and homogeneity of the main-stream education system in Japan is first described. The programme of study and spartan life of students in university faculties are then outlined. The types of research open to successful students in Japan are illustrated by a broad outline of its funding and examples of research programmes
