International Course in Primatology and Wildlife Research

International Course in Primatology and Wildlife Research

The International Course in Primatology and Wildlife Research is a cross-campus graduate program of Kyoto University that focuses on the study of non-human primates and other wild animals to promote their conservation, health and welfare, and to advance our understanding of wildlife and human nature. Graduate students enroll in the program at either the master's or doctoral level, and belong to the Division of Biological Sciences of the Graduate School of Science.

In addition to conducting research, master's students are required to complete a set of courses and training programs as part of the curriculum. Students who have successfully completed their master's degrees typically progress to the doctoral stage of the program.
