Kyoto City is currently home to 38 universities and junior colleges, and is a "city of universities and students" where about 150,000 students, or about 10% of the population, study.
This time, in order to provide opportunities for students to experience the diverse cultures of Kyoto as a promotion measure in the "Kyoto City of Universities and Kyoto City of Students" formulated by Kyoto City and the University Consortium Kyoto in April 26, We invite university and junior college students from all over the country to Kyoto cultural facilities free of charge.
This fiscal year, the number of eligible facilities has been expanded to 23 (compared to 21 last year), and the leaflet introduces the highlights of the program from students who participated in internships at Kyoto City Hall for internships developed by the University Consortium Kyoto.
