• San'in Main Line: Goma ⇄ Hiyoshi (Kyoto)

Shinkyū-Daigaku-mae Station opened on 16 March 1996 in Nantan, Kyoto Prefecture, when the San'in Main Line section between Sonobe and Ayabe was electrified. The station was a "petition station" funded with a 49-million-yen contribution from the Meiji School of Oriental Medicine to serve students and patients of its university and affiliated hospital; the school donated the completed building to what was then the town of Hiyoshi (now Nantan). Initially administered by the Maizuru Railway District, the station was transferred to the Fukuchiyama Branch Office in 2006 and ICOCA ticketing was enabled on 13 March 2021. The school was renamed Meiji University of Integrative Medicine in 2008 but JR West has declined to alter the station name.

On the electrified section between Kyoto and Kinosakionsen, Shinkyū-Daigaku-mae is the only intermediate station that lacks a passing loop and is consequently classified as a "halt" rather than a station for operational purposes.
