The Faculty of Economics aims to graduate individuals with well-rounded personalities, trained through a sound approach to economic thought, with a broad knowledge of economics and an ability to efficiently process information. They will be capable of handling a broad range of work with a global perspective, and be able to make accurate and balanced judgments. Effectively, they will be outstanding examples of “homo economics.”

The Faculty of Cultural Studies aims to produce well-educated individuals who are capable of flexible decision-making and able to address issues of culture relating to people’s everyday lives from a global perspective, starting with an understanding of the cultures of Kyoto and Japan.Students investigate many cultures of the world, acquire a high level of English-speaking ability, and engage often in original education/research utilizing their base in Kyoto with its extensive historical and cultural traditions.

The Faculty of Computer Science and Engineering was established to meet the rapidly expanding needs of an information society. Departments provide education that covers a wide range of information-related fields of growing importance focused on three particular areas —information science, computer networks, and various human interfaces involving information systems.

The original Department of Law was established in 1967 and the Department of Interdisciplinary Studies in Law and Policy was established in 2009. Both offer a distinctive education through courses carefully designed to meet the needs of students throughout the four year program. Class sizes are restricted so that students can benefit from seminars and interactive lectures as they progress year by year. Programs are offered to guide students systematically based on their career goals or interests.

By providing an education in management and related sciences, combined with a broad-based liberal education, the Faculty of Business Administration aims to cultivate business professionals with strong management capabilities applicable to any organizational environment. The faculty offers three courses of specialized studies: Business Administration, Social Management, and Accounting and Finance.

The Faculty of Science enables students to experience the interest and beauty of learning. We attach the utmost importance to giving our students a profound mastery of the basics of science so as to nurture human resources ambitious enough to utilize science for the development of society. Our curriculum is designed to impart a full understanding of the basic principles of natural science, upon which students are able to solve a wide range of problems.

Students acquire an integrated understanding of the global environment and the life of plants and animals—including human beings—through which they become valuable human resources able to solve the problems that these fields must address. In this faculty, an education is provided through small group seminars, and an effective combination of lectures and practicum courses.

The Faculty of Social Sciences is set to be established in 2017. This faculty aims to educate new leaders with diverse views who can find creative solutions for social problems and promote change in society.The Department of Social Sciences consists of three courses; Regional Social Development, Human Social Development and Social Media Development. The Department of Health and Sports Development provides two fields of study; Health Management and Athletic Training. Students will be offered a wide range of attractive programs to enrich their knowledge and skills for our future society.

The Faculty of Foreign Studies includes four departments. The English department offers majors in English language and in English Careers; European Languages provides majors in German, French, Russian, Spanish, Italian, and Media Communication; and Asian Languages' offer majors in Chinese, Korean, Indonesian, and Japanese Communication. The resulting structure allows students to learn from any of 10 languages, unusual for a private university in Japan. The forth department , International Relations, fuses studies in the humanities and social sciences. All four departments cultivate the English skills of its students.

Science

Life SciencesComputer Frontier Informatics

The Division of Science seeks individuals who have a curiosity and strong interest in science, and who are keen to discover new problems and look for ways to solve them. The Division employs a dual major system in mathematics and physics, and through close guidance from tutors, students develop the abilities needed by researchers and other professionals to discover problems, resolve them, and present their findings.

Great progress has been made in recent years in science in the pursuit of the truths of nature, particularly in mathematics and physics. This theoretical achievement has led to many kinds of societal progress and highlighted the importance of science to the world.

Every galaxy almost ubiquitously hosts a supermassive black hole at its center - this is one of the most astonishing findings in recent Astronomy and Astrophysics. Our own Galaxy, i.e. Milky Way, isn't an exception - it is now believed to hold a black hole of 4 million solar masses. However, we also know that galaxies often collide and merge: naively, this would leave a double, or "binary" black hole at the center, but do we see it? Are they actually everywhere? To know the answers directly, we would need super high resolution photos in visible or infrared light. This can only be done by combining beams from two or more telescopes located 100 m or more apart. This is called interferometry - something that I have been spending most of my recent research time on. Quite hard, but worth it.

I graduated from the Department of Pharmacy (Kyoto University) in 1987 before attaining Japanese national pharmacist license. Since I was interested in molecular biological research, I took molecular virology as a subject for my graduate study. I then moved to my current subject of cell biology and completed my PhD research in molecular mechanisms of leukocyte differentiation. During the course of my study, I was intrigued by the molecular mechanism of protein transport between cellular organelles that control cell’s shapes and functions, which was an emerging research field of the cell biology. From 1993 to 1997, I had my postdoctoral training in the London Research Institute of Imperial Cancer Research Fund, UK (now, Crick Institute, UK). Here, I started my research on the molecular mechanism of the structural maintenance of the Golgi apparatus. Since then, the Golgi apparatus has been my main research target. I am seeking students who have a curiosity for molecular aspects of cells and who are willing to be involved in our research about the Golgi apparatus. Details of our research project can be found here -http://www.kyoto-su.ac.jp/english/department/graduate/g_eng/fm/nakamura.html.

The division of Life Sciences offers educational and research opportunities for acquiring specialized knowledge and advanced skills in the life sciences to take into a wide range of fields. The curriculum provides a continuation of studies in the three fields (Molecular Biosciences, Bio resource and Environmental Sciences and Animal Medical Sciences) of the undergraduate Faculty of Life Sciences, while integrating the studies into a single major to encourage specialized knowledge and research capabilities in a wide range of areas.Research guidance is provided in this division by academic advisors and teaching staff in related fuekds, enabling research to extend beyond the framework of the available courses. Combined subjectes from advanced or master’s courses are also incorporated, allowing the acquisiton of knowledge in a wide range of fields beyond a single specialization.

Computers and network services have quickly become the standard infrastructure upon which the world relies, and the ways in which they are being used continues to expand rapidly. There is growing demand for individuals well-trained in computers and information-related technologies who possess advanced technical knowledge and the ability to apply those skills. The Division of Frontier Informatics was established under such circumstances. As rapid progress is made in information-related fields, the university is set to respond to society’s needs by producing researchers who can think creatively and open new avenues for the future. The division develops highly skilled university teachers who can provide undergraduate and graduate school education.

GJP is a carefully packaged selection of English taught academic classes tailored for exchange students who intend to learn in depth about facets of Japanese society. Classes offer historic and modern perspectives in their various fields and allow English-speaking exchange students to study alongside their Japanese peers, further increasing exchange and global awareness of all students.

Professor Tanaka obtained his Bsc, Msc and PhD in Economics from the London School Of Economics before joining the faculty of economics in 1985. He is a labour economist with special interests in investment in education, skill training mechanisms, cooperative education, and income and wealth inequality. As a member of the Center of Research and Development for Cooperative Education, he supervises student internship programmes in Japan and abroad.Personal MessageI spent 12 years of my youth in UK. It was an extremely precious experience that formed the basis of most of my thoughts and opinions to this day. In particular, I learned to empathize with international students and understand how we should care for them in Japan. I teach Japanese Economy A in GJP and thoroughly enjoy the global environment with a mixture of overseas and Japanese students. I attempt to provide students with a satisfactory academic programme and make their precious time in Japan fruitful. At KSU, teachers, staff and students, welcome you wholeheartedly to the ancient city of Kyoto. OKOSHI-YASU!!!

Assoc. Prof. Strefford earned his BA at Hull University,his MA at Leeds University and his PhD at KobeUniversity. At KSU he teaches courses on InternationalRelations, International Development and the Theoryof Knowledge.

His research focuses on Myanmar’s foreign relations, particularly aid donors’ policies and practices towards Myanmar. Dr. Strefford has published articles on Japanese ODA diplomacy towards Myanmar, American foreign policy towards Myanmar, and on Myanmar’s humanitarian crisis, among others. In 2013, Dr. Strefford was awarded a Japan Society for the Promotion of Sciences grant to support research into international aid to support the transition in Myanmar. He is the Principal Researcher, focusing on donor assistance to capacity building in the public sector.

Studying at KSU has absolutely been one of the bestexperiences in my life! I had the chance to make friendsnot only with Japanese people, but also with people fromall over the world. Even though the homework andassignments got me busy everyday but I still had time toexperience the Japanese culture through the festivals andactivities held in KSU. GJP classes were very fun. The lecturers were very helpful and really quick in giving feedback on your progress. Living in I-House was a pleasure for me. Sharing experiences, exchanging foods/recipes and study together with the people from different countries. Thank you KSU for giving me the opportunity to study for one semester. I will never forget the memories I have of this ancient town which is full of history and beautiful traditions. Thank you too to CIP team for helping me a lot. To future exchange students at KSU; use this golden opportunity wisely. Go out and explore the beautiful things in Kyoto.

In my future job as a teacher I want to connect peoplefrom different countries, cultures and backgroundsbecause I think that is what teaching languages is mostlyabout. At KSU I met different people from a ll over theworld and made friends through the different languagesI speak. It is always fun to exchange your language with others and learn together a new one. Whenever you come to KSU make sure you don't hide in your room but explore the world with others at the university and outside in temples, shrines, mountains and cities. Regarding the university I recommend to take classes outside the Japanese language program and take part in clubs/circles or sport classes in order to meet new, Japanese people.

I first fell in love with KSU during a summer program. I then returned for a half a year exchange and studied Japanese language, Japanese literature, Asian culture, journalism and human rights. My Japanese improved because of the really helpful teachers, Club activities and by making Japanese friends. I did a lot of things, varying from playing Koto to selling chicken at the university festival. The big plus of KSU is that it is located in a very beautiful, quiet and non-tourist area where deer can be seen staring at you from the forest next to university. The views on the campus are breathtaking. Another great thing is the I-house - dormitory for exchange students. I became friends with people from all over the world and it really gave me a new perspective on a lot of things. For future exchange students I’d advise not to be afraid of anything (except for HUGE Japanese bugs). Participate in everything you can: competitions, club activities, cultural events… Make friends and use as much Japanese as you can.

I had a most fulfilling year in Kyoto. Staff wereextremely supportive and provided us with so manyopportunities to make Japanese friends, such asthrough the buddy system, tours and getting us ticketsto traditional cultural events such as Sumo and Kogen.I House staff cared for us like we were their children andchatted with us like friends. The teachers were very enthusiastic and students in class helped us a lot.Not matter where I walked, I could sense an air of tradition and intensely felt that Kyoto really is a special city. Japanese culture is enveloped through everything from houses to the food to Shrine events.Thank you to everyone at KSU who provided me with a fun and most worthwhile year.

~ This is where you feel close to the cultural and historical heart of Japan.~

I choose Japan because I thought that it will be a proper place to experience a totally different culture from mine. Going abroad was something I had wanted to do for mydegree and having the chance to experience it in KSU was fantastic.Arriving Japan I didn’t speak Japanese so well, but after eight weeks you begin to understand some things. Studying in KSU was totally different from the way I study in Mexico because we were taught in English. We took Japanese language lessons in Japanese, but the others were taken in English; and that make the experience so nice because you are able to understand all the topics of the classes you choose and you are not worried about don’t understanding the classes because you are in a Japanese University.The best thing I got from studying abroad in KSU was that it helped me to open new horizons for my post-university life; now I have the option to establish my life abroad, to work or keep studying and of course Japan is in my sights. The University staff were very helpful, very organized and such good people; they make your life so easy in Japan that the only thing you have to concern yourself with is which place you are going to travel next week.In conclusion, studying one semester in KSU was definitely my best semester so far in my life.

Studying abroad at KSU was a great experience for me! I enjoyed the time here, made lots of new friends, memories and mainly experience.I had the chance to improve my Japanese language skills and it was a great to be part of another system of education. I also had a chance to "challenge" myself - thanks to the Japanese speech contest and lessons taught in Japanesealongside Japanese students. Kyoto is unbelievable - so many things to see and events to experience! In the I-House we created a family and shared our problems as well as all the happy moments :)Studying in Japan at KSU has made me think about the world and people around me differently, with greater respect for cultural differences. Thank you very much Japan, thank you KSU!

There are many reasons why Kyoto is chosen by international and domestic students as a study destination. Kyoto was the capital city of Japan for over 1,000 years. Reminders of its long history remain all over the city allowing students to come into direct contact with, and learn about, Japanese cultural history. Kyoto abounds in not only traditional assets from the past. Kyoto is also the home of innovative Japanese companies such as NINTENDO, Kyocera, Murata and SHIMADZU. In support of such industries, Kyoto has grown into one of the major university and college cities in Japan bosting over 35 universities. 10% of the city’s total population is made up of students. Kyoto offers an extensive range of studies including cutting-edge research that have been awarded Nobel prizes in recent years. One prize winner, Prof. Hidenori Maskawa, was undertaking research in KSU when he received his Nobel Prize in Physics. According to the “QS Best Student Cities 2016”, Kyoto is ranked 24th in the world (Second highest in Japan after Tokyo). About 8,000 international students from all over the world are studying in Kyoto. It’s time you came to join them.

Opportunities ranging from “A”nime to “Z”en await you, here in Kyoto. Oideyasu!

I came to Kyoto Sangyo University to study the Japanese language, but I’ve realized that there’s also so much more it has to offer. Because of Kyoto Sangyo’s location within Kyoto, I’ve gotten to experience the quieter side of city life, like nice strolls around the Kamo River, as well as the bustle of the city. I have gotten to do so many things and go so many wonderful places, and meet so many people. One of my favorite on campus activities is the GSC Global Saloon. I get to talk to different students about a lot of different topics! While they are heavily encouraged to use English, sometimes I get to ask or answer questions in Japanese, and, while challenging, it’s so much fun.
