Foreign scholarship/award income..?

Hello good people!

I’m a tax resident of Japan and doing a degree mostly online in a foreign uni.

The uni in their wisdom have decided they will give me an award of about 1.5 million yen total, paid monthly over 6 months.

So. What do I need to do here?! Is this income? Is it taxable? Or where should I look for answers- it’s too small an amount to talk to a tax professional, I’d guess.

Edit: bonus question- in terms of transfer would it be as simple as telling the uni my shinsei or Mitsui details? It’s EU to here.
