From Kashiwanoha-campus Station
If you use Tsukuba express (TX) train, the nearest station to UTokyo Kashiwa campus is the Kashiwanoha-campus station. This station is convenient for those who stay at Mitsui Garden Hotel Kashiwanoha, Hotel Del Prado or Hotel Sunoak Kashiwanoha. Kavli IPMU is 20-minute walking distance from the station.
From this station, there is a shuttle bus provided by the university of Tokyo: http://www.k.u-tokyo.ac.jp/gsfs/shuttle-bus/2017shuttlebus_e.pdf .
It is also not difficult to find a public bus transportation from Kashiwanoha-campus station. Take either #03 or #04 bus from the bus stop #1 at the West Exit of the station and get off at National Cancer Center ("Kokuritsu Gan Senta"). You can also take #10 bus at the same bus stop and get off at Todai-mae.
IC Cards for easy transportation
For train and bus transport, most lines (including the local buses in Kashiwa) will accept the Suica or Pasmo IC Cards, which allow payment of fares by tapping a card reader. Either Suica or Pasmo cards can be purchased at most train stations. Some express trains will require the purchase of an additional express fare ticket beyond the base fare, so simply tapping your IC card will not be sufficient. Local Tobu buses from Kashiwa or Kashiwanoha Campus Stations also accept the IC cards. You simply need to tap the card readers when entering and exiting the bus. If you pay by coin, collect a paper slip when entering the bus which specifies your starting bus stop. Use the display at the front of the bus to determine your owed fair when you exit the bus. Payment is made at the front of the bus when exiting.
