Graduate School of Engineering and Faculty of Engineering, Kyoto University
Graduate School of Engineering and Faculty of Engineering (京都大学大学院工学研究科・工学部) is one of schools at the Kyoto University. The Faculty (Undergraduate) and the Graduate School operate as one. According to the QS World University Rankings by Subject 2020 in the field of Engineering & Technology, KU is ranked third in Japan after University of Tokyo and TokyoTech. History 
In 1897, College of Science and Engineering (理工科大学) was established with the establishment of Imperial University of Kyoto. It was divided into College of Engineering (工科大学) and College of Science in 1914. College of Engineering was reorganized into Faculty of Engineering (工学部) in 1919. In 1953, Graduate School of Engineering (工学研究科) was established. In the 1990s, A four-year plan to emphasize graduate school education was implemented and some departments were converted into independent graduate schools; Graduate School of Energy Science was established in 1996 and Graduate School of Informatics in 1998.
