Students will develop practical applied learning skills in this program. The second distinctive is the Japanese emphasis. Living in Japan, a foreigner has a great opportunity to learn the Japanese language, about the culture, history, and politics. KIU will teach students these subjects and broaden the students' horizons and international potential upon degree completion. Non-Japanese students will attain a certain level of Japanese proficiency and be able to use acquired knowledge and skills in cross-cultural settings with confidence.

Kyoto International University(KIU) was established as a school in 1989 and in 2003, was granted recognition by the board of education of Kyoto ward. KIU distinguishes itself from other "mission" schools in Japan by its desire to pioneer a different style of education - one that nurtures and trains students to think for themselves and act with international-mindedness. The basis of the education at KIU is derived from Christian principles. We welcome all students regardless of gender, race or religion.
