[edit] History
Kyoto International University was founded in 1989 as Phillips University Japan, affiliated with Phillips University in Oklahoma, U.S.A..
In April of 1995, Phillips University International (PUI) was created with the new purpose of taking American education in Japan a step further by creating a new bilingual and bicultural academic program.
In the fall of 1996, PUI, in order to keep its commitment to provide a superior education to its students and to facilitate future growth, moved its campus to a growing suburban area of Kyoto Prefecture, Kyotanabe City, and became an independent educational entity under the new name of Kyoto International University.
