II Meiji University Information




1 Overview


Meiji University was founded in January 1881 as the Meiji Law School by a group of young lawyers barely in their 30’s: Tatsuo Kishimoto, Kozo Miyagi, and Misao Yashiro. It was an era characterized by Japan’s urgent need to develop as a modern independent nation. The three founded the Meiji Law School in their fervent hope to “foster bright capable youths who would lead a modern civil society in Japan.”

Although confronted with countless obstacles and hardships along the way, Meiji University was born as a site for learning and education. Continuing its growth without ever ceasing to ring the chimes of liberty, Meiji University has expanded as one of the prominent private universities of Japan, celebrating its 130th anniversary in 2011.

With Rights, Liberty, Independence and Self-government as its guiding principles, Meiji University is committed to fostering students who satisfy the requirements of “austerity and sturdiness,” “creation of new intellect” and “needs of the times.” Having sent out more than 500,000 graduates into the world to date, it has contributed vastly to the progress of society. The achievements of the university’s numerous alumni actively engaged in key roles in various walks of life are highly reputed.

Meiji University ranks solidly among the best universities in Japan, currently consisting of 9 schools: the School of Law, School of Commerce, School of Political Science and Economics, School of Arts and Letters, School of Science and Technology, School of Agriculture, School of Business Administration, School of Information and Communication, and the School of Global Japanese Studies. It also has 11 general graduate schools, nine of which cover the same disciplines as undergraduate schools, and two of which—the Graduate School of Humanities and Graduate School of Advanced Mathematical Sciences—only have graduate programs. Furthermore, there are independent schools in various disciplines, including the Law School, Graduate School of Global Business, Graduate School of Professional Accountancy, and the Graduate School of Governance Studies. The University also boasts the Meiji University Junior High School and Meiji University High School.

In addition to the Surugadai Campus, Meiji University also comprises the Izumi Campus and Ikuta Campus. Along with excellent teaching staff, all of these campuses are linked with other institutions and facilities for education and research and feature the latest facilities, equipment and so on for extracurricular activities. The Surugadai Campus, for example, features the Liberty Tower, which boasts a state-of-the-art IT infrastructure throughout its 23 aboveground and three below-ground stories. The Academy Common, completed in April 2004 on the same campus, serves as a base for lifelong education where our professional graduate schools and the Liberty Academy hold classes.

In April 2013, the university will open its fourth and newest campus in Nakano. Intended to become a hub of internationalization, advanced research, and social partnerships, the Nakano Campus will be home to the School of Global Japanese Studies, the School of Interdisciplinary Mathematical Sciences (scheduled to open in April 2013), and several graduate schools and research institutions.

As one of Japan’s most urban universities—and one that will carry Japan through the twenty-first century—Meiji University is striving to be a launching pad for students into the world.
