Survey of our Students’ Overseas Travel Status <For Returnees from March 1st Onwards (Including International Students)>

As the Novel Coronavirus is spreading throughout the world, including within Japan, extreme caution is required to prevent further transmission.

We have been calling your attention to preventative measures against new Covid-19 infections. As transmission is rapidly progressing, however, clusters (collective infections) are likely to take place within universities in Kyoto, caused by students traveling overseas and holding social gatherings. Furthermore, the Novel Coronavirus Infectious Disease Control Headquarters of Kyoto City has issued an urgent request to ascertain the status of students’ overseas travel history.

We will make every possible effort to maintain an environment in which students can carry out their studies with peace of mind.

Therefore, we ask those who have returned from overseas to respond to the following on the Ryukoku Portal Site and cooperate by remaining at home for fourteen (14) days after returning to Japan.
