The Technical University of Kyoto (Japanese京都 工 芸 繊 维 大学, Kyōto Kogei Sen'i daigaku, dt " University of Technology, Design and Textile Sciences Kyoto ," engl Kyoto Institute of Technology, in short. KIT) is a public university in Japan. It is located in Matsugasaki - Hashikamichō, Sakyō -ku, Kyoto.

History

The university was founded in 1949 by the merger of two state schools. The two were:

  • The pilot Kyoto (京都 工业 専 门 学校, Kyoto Kōgyō Semmon Gakko, founded in 1902 ), and
  • The Textile College Kyoto (京都 繊 维 専 门 学校, Kyoto Sen'i Semmon Gakko founded 1899).

The university was opened with two schools in the two locations: the Faculty of Technology and Design in today's Matsugasaki Campus, and the Faculty of Textile Sciences at Kinugasa Campus (35 ° 1 ' 27 " N, 135 ° 43' 29" O35. 024258333333135.72483888889 ). 1968 pulled the Faculty of Textile Sciences at the Matsugasaki Campus. In 2006, the two departments of the Faculty of Technology, Design and natural science (Japanese工 芸 科学 部, Eng. School of Science and Technology ) merged.

The history of the two predecessors of the University is as follows:

Technical Kyoto

The technical Kyoto in 1902 as Higher School of Technology and Design Kyoto (京都 高等 工 芸 学校, Kyoto Kōtō Kogei Gakko ) was founded. She was the third oldest of the Japanese government technical schools to Tokyo and Osaka. She had the first of three departments for dyeing, weaving and product design. In 1929, she founded the Department of Ceramics, and in 1930 they moved to the present Matsugasaki Campus. In 1944 she was renamed Kyoto pilot.
