- Faculty of Humanities and Economics
- Faculty of Education
- Faculty of Science
- Medical School
- Faculty of Agriculture and Marine Science
- Faculty of Regional Collaboration
- Graduate School of Kuroshio Science Doctoral Course
- Graduate School of Integrated Arts and Sciences

The city of Kōchi is in southern Japan and is home to approximately 332,000 people. The city is most famous for katsuo tataki, a local dish consisting of seared and seasoned tuna. Nearly half of the city was destroyed by bombing in the Second World War, although Kōchi castle - originally built in the 1600s - continues to stand today and is worth a visit. Every August, the city hosts the Yosakoi festival, featuring thousands of dancers and performances of both traditional and modern songs.
