Kyoto Summer Program
The Kyoto Summer Program employs a unique experiential learning process that involves learning the landscape. The twelve credit program consists of a studio, a media course and an independent study. The numerous places we visit enrich and enlighten our students to pursue their own intellectual interests on a daily basis. Treks through rice terraces and guided walks of old Kyoto add to the active pedagogical format of the summer.
