Studying away in Kyoto with Stanford is more than just attending classes in a new setting—it’s about fully immersing yourself in Japan’s traditions, communities, and way of life. From exploring centuries-old temples to engaging with modern cultural practices, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of both Japan and your place in a global community. Throughout your time abroad, our team is here to guide and support you, ensuring your experience is meaningful, engaging, and inspiring from start to finish.
