Distinctive Courses in 2018
In the 2018 academic year, 442 courses were offered as credit transfer courses.
Among the many credit transfer courses, the “Plaza Recommended Courses” are the courses that the University Consortium Kyoto particularly recommends taking them.
“Plaza Recommended Courses” are distinctive courses offered at Campus Plaza Kyoto that were developed in cooperation with the University Consortium Kyoto and the university for credit transfer.
In fiscal 2018, 15 courses will be offered, including the Kyoto World Heritage PBL course, which works to discover and solve World Heritage issues set in Kyoto’s World Heritage Site.
Kyoto World Heritage PBL Courses
The “Kyoto World Heritage PBL Course” is a course in which PBL*1 is developed in the field of Kyoto’s World Heritage Sites. In the class, students mainly learn in groups to discover the issues faced by the World Heritage Site and its surrounding areas on their own and propose solutions. In cooperation with students from other universities, students work to solve problems through dialogue with people involved in World Heritage sites, which is a course unique to the consortium’s credit transfer. If you want to collaborate with students from other universities, or if you are interested in Kyoto and cultural heritage, please take this course.
* PBL (Project Based Learning) refers to active learning that involves finding and solving problems.
Plaza Recommended Courses
“Plaza Recommended Subjects” are courses that are recognized by the University Consortium Kyoto as having a particular feature among the Plaza Courses and are recommended for students to take. Courses include chain lectures and relay lectures by guest lecturers such as multiple faculty members and practitioners, as well as seminar-type courses in which students learn independently and actively by incorporating fieldwork and practical training. These are all very interesting subjects that each university is proud to offer.
