備考
(1) Any personal information acquired from the application process will not be used for any other purpose.
(2) At the Interfaculty Initiative in Information Studies, we promote gender equality and diversity.
(3) The III/GSII has adopted a set of ethics policy principles. Please search for Ethics Policy Principles on our website.
(4) If you are personally in contract with foreign governmental bodies, corporations or universities, or you are in receipt of a large benefit (financial or any other form) from foreign governmental bodies during the period of your employment, the provisions of the Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Act (FEFTA) may prohibit or restrict the sharing of technologies that are designated as controlled technologies, which may make it difficult to fulfill the duties of an academic or administrative employee of the university. Therefore, in such cases, it is necessary to limit the scope of such contracts/benefits so that they do not hinder the sharing of technologies necessary for your duties at the university.
