Kyoto University, the second largest national university in Japan.
1892, 23 members of parliament put forward in a motion to the National Assembly that there is only one Tokyo National University in Japan, and the lack of competition is not conducive to running schools and cultivating students. At that time, it was suggested to build a university in Xijing-Kyoto. 1897 was passed and the university was born. At that time, it was called Kyoto Imperial University. When the university was first established, there was only one branch of science and engineering, with 6 majors giving 2/kloc-0 lectures and less than 500 students. Hiroshi Kimura was the first president. A few years later, three university branches were added: law, medicine and liberal arts. At this time, there are five university branches in the school. Four years later, a new university decree was issued and the branch school was renamed the department. The original law and economics of the law department were separated, and at the same time, they were upgraded to a department. After several years' efforts, agricultural departments and some research institutions have been established one after another, and the school scale has been greatly developed, and the number of students has doubled. After the merger of Kyoto No.3 Middle School, the humanities department was established on this basis, and later developed into today's education department. After the war, according to the new education law, all the new systems were implemented and Imperial University was cut off? Empire? The second word is to eliminate the harm and influence of militarism on Kyoto University, including co-education, cleaning up the teaching staff, canceling some inappropriate lectures, adding departments of education, pharmacy and some research institutes, and the postgraduate education has been greatly developed and opened to the outside world. In this way, Kyoto University has become a national comprehensive university with complete disciplines and huge scale, second only to Tokyo University in Japan.

Department of pharmacy, including 13 lecture on pharmacy and medicinal chemistry, with medicinal botanical garden; Agronomy department, including 10 departments and 53 lectures, has attached farms, forest farms and pastures, as well as facilities for agronomy research, subtropical crops, aquatic products, cell culture and agricultural accounting.

research institute

The graduate school has nine research disciplines, including literature, teaching, law, economics, science, medicine, engineering and agriculture, including 83 research directions. The combination of graduate education and department education can make full use of human resources, books and materials, instruments and equipment, and the trinity of departments, graduate schools and research institutes is conducive to output and talent training.
