●Education and exchange Program

Founded in 1897, Kyoto University has anchored its education program on a tradition of liberal and academic freedom. We continue to actively abide by these principles, as we pursue research on priority areas like basic research and advanced technology leading to the acquisition of intellectual property. The University then returns the knowledge amassed to society through education, social cooperation, and lifelong education. Each faculties follow a 4-year curriculum (except for the faculty of medicine which has a 6 year program). For more details, please see
