Exploring the future of the world through scholarship in Tokyo

Tokyo Metropolitan University (TMU) is the only university operated by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government. By providing an education that capitalizes on TMU’s strong points, TMU will produce personnel who can operate in response to societal changes, will promote a variety of basic and applied research as well as conduct research on urban issues. This will help Tokyo to advance and in turn provide future insight for the rest of the world.

The Administration’s vision of TMU’s future image

1: An environment conducive to advanced research skills and a quality education Our teaching staff are also exceptional researchers who will provide a quality education buttressed by advanced research skills as well as discuss topics in-depth with qualified and capable students. This will further encourage an environment conducive to advanced research skills and a quality education that further enhances the research skills of our faculty members.
2: Fostering personnel who are capable of continuing to learn and who can work together to create new value TMU assembles serious students in a wide range of academic disciplines. Capitalizing on these features, TMU will broaden students’ range of interests and concerns and improve their ability to carefully ponder issues through intimate dialogues between students and faculty, and friendly competition among students with different values. This will foster personnel who can take the initiative in identifying topics of interest and who can work together to create new value.
3: An open campus where a variety of people meet and learn from one another One of TMU’s goals is to provide a campus where a variety of people can meet and learn from one another in a mutually respectful atmosphere, regardless of their nationality, culture, sex, age, or disability. Another of TMU’s goals is to facilitate lifelong learning. To those ends, TMU will provide the broader community and residents of Tokyo with a forum in which to learn and interact with others.
