In April 2026, the Faculty of English and Global Communication will transition to a two-major system.
The Faculty of English and Global Communication provides specialized education in English as an international language, fostering global awareness and preparing students to thrive in an increasingly globalized society. With its location in Kyoto, an international tourism hub, the faculty equips students with the skills needed for careers in international settings.
In addition to acquiring advanced English proficiency, students will develop global communication skills based on extensive knowledge and cultural education relating to international relations, international tourism, and international economics.
In their second year, all students participate in a one-year study abroad program. After returning to Japan, they will take specialized courses in English, further strengthening their advanced English proficiency and broad academic knowledge. With these skills, graduates will be equipped to play active leadership roles in globalized educational settings, international organizations, government agencies, and businesses.
In the international city of Kyoto, students from all over the world will study together aiming to become global professionals with advanced language skills and cultural diversity. Students will develop a broad perspective and deep understanding by studying with peers from differing backgrounds, and learn practical skills through projects in collaboration with businesses.
