Information on doctoral candidates, including the 2015-2016 updates, was provided by programs and Japan specialists and is therefore only a partial list. We have included all those who were reported as having completed the degree since 2011-12, and we have removed the names of those who were reported as no longer in the doctoral program without having completed the degree. If the candidate has completed the degree, PhD will appear after the name, followed by the year of the degree if we have that information.
