Taisho University (大正大学, Taishō daigaku) is a private university in Nishi-sugamo, Toshima, Tokyo, Japan. The university was founded in the last year of the Taishō period (1926) by merging the three Buddhist colleges. The three were:

  • the Tendai-shū College (天台宗大学, Tendai-shū daigaku', founded in 1885),
  • the Buzan College (豊山大学, Buzan daigaku, founded in 1887 and funded by Shingon-shū Buzan-ha), and
  • the Religious College (宗教大学, Shūkyō daigaku, founded in 1887 and funded by Jōdo-shū).

Its school precepts are based on the Tendai school of Buddhism. The concept for the university began when five doctors—Junjiro Takakusu, Masaharu Anesaki, Eun Maeda, Senshō Murakami and Masataro Sawayanagi—who were leaders of Buddhist society in Japan, proposed creating a Buddhist university union.[1]
