Meiji University (明治大学, Meiji Daigaku) is a private research university in Chiyoda, Tokyo, Japan. Originally founded as Meiji Law School (明治法律学校, Meiji Hōritsu Gakkō) by three lawyers in 1881, it became a university in April 1920.[1]

As of May 2023, Meiji has 32,261 undergraduate students and 2,635 postgraduate students.[2] The university consists of 10 undergraduate, 12 graduate, and 4 professional graduate schools, and operates on four campuses around the Greater Tokyo Area: Surugadai, Izumi, Ikuta, and Nakano. The university is known to be a promoter of student exchanges, with its first partner agreement in 1986 with York University in Canada, and it currently partners with 376 universities and institutions in 59 countries.[3]

Meiji University is the country's most applied-to university, with applications to its undergraduate degrees amounting to approximately 100,000 annually.[4] Meiji is a part of the Top Global University Project of Japan's Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.[5] As of 2021, 270 Meiji alumni have competed in the Olympics, garnering 40 medals: 14 gold, 13 silver, and 13 bronze.[6]
