Shared system"KUMaCo"

What is KUMaCo?

KUMaCo (Kyoto University Management System for Core Facilities) is a usage management system for shared facilities that runs over the internet and dedicated software.
Users of shared equipment register equipment and schedule reservations online, while equipment administrators approve loans and manage records using dedicated software, and accounting-related tasks are handled by staff in the "Katsura Yui" office (see diagram on the right).

Log in to KUMaCo

If you have already registered as a user, you can apply to use the equipment and reserve it. Please log in to KUMaCo My Portal from the banner on the right.
