Founded in 1886 as a law school, Kansai University (KU) is one of the leading universities in Japan with a history spanning some 140 years. Currently, KU has 13 faculties, 13 graduate schools, and two professional graduate schools with approximately 30,000 students across its five campuses. KU's motto is gaku no jitsuge, which means harmony between academia and the real world.

Our campuses offer ample opportunities and activities for students and faculty to immerse themselves in different languages and cultures. We also offer groundbreaking international programs that promote student mobility with our partner universities. For example, the KU Global Frontier Curriculum offers both domestic and international students the opportunity to study content courses in a variety of fields in English. We also offer courses using interactive online collaboration with students at overseas universities. Through these programs, students as well as faculty can engage in an intercultural environment within the university.
