jap hellish work culture also spill onto academia
>permanent positions all occupied with old boomers.
>post-doc works for long years before get into permanent position.
>PhD still have to pay tuition fee (still considered as student) while other countries (at least in EU) are considered as employment (paid salary)
>Master studies is all research oriented. instead of traditional 3 semesters of advanced courses +1 semester master thesis, Japanese master course is 4 semesters of thesis work + few credit courses; students even have to secure acceptance from head of research group in order to get admitted. Master application is basically same like PhD.
>Working overtime, even conducting experiments, group meeting on Saturday is normal
Got jap exchange research student & guest get pestered by supervising professor here (Austria) to go home since it's already past 6pm
