Chuo University was first established in 1885 as the English Law School, and is one of the largest and most
prestigious private universities in Japan, particularly renowned for accomplishments in law, policy studies, and
science and engineering. In addition, many of our Business and Economics graduates have gone on to become
top-level executives at major corporations in Japan and abroad. During our 131-year history, Chuo has seen
steady growth from a specialized School of Law, which continues to produce many of Japan’s judges, prosecutors,
and lawyers, to a comprehensive university with six faculties, eight graduate schools, and three professional
graduate schools, in addition to nine research institutes, four affiliated high schools, and two affiliated junior high
schools.
Our Global Partners
The University was founded on the spirit of “Fostering the Ability to Apply Knowledge to Practice”, and
we aspire to provide practical education that helps young people meet the demands of today’s global society.
