TOYO UNIVERSITYGUIDE BOOK 2022

President’s Message
Toyo University’s globalization strategy can trace its roots back to the philosophy of Dr. Enryo
Inoue, who founded Tetsugakukan (private philosophy academy), the predecessor of the University.
Dr. Inoue developed his educational ideas through studying Buddhist thoughts in Japan in addition
to Western philosophy and psychology while touring overseas. He then set two grand objectives forhis education activities―cultivating the ability to think deeply and developing philosophies to bereflected in daily actions―as he believed that these should comprise the basic education required
to build world-class talent. Since that time, while offering education based on research results
collected from around the world, we have been looking at approaches to help students think deeply
and reflect the results of their thinking in their actions.
Toyo University is developing global education under the banner of “TOYO GLOBALDIAMONDS―Becoming an Asian Hub University for Global Leaders,” adopted by the Ministryof Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) in 2014 for its Top Global
University Project (Type B). Under this project, new faculties and departments have been created
to foster human resources who can demonstrate leadership in international settings, with thefirst students enrolled under the project graduated in AY2020. We will further advance the TGD
concept to continue developing global human resources.

History and Founder, Enryo Inoue
Toyo’s Founder, Enryo Inoue, Who Showed His Great Wisdom in Diverse Fields
The histor y of Toyo University began in 1887 with theestablishment of Shiritsu Tetsugakukan ( “Private Academyof Philosophy”) by philosopher Dr.Enryo Inoue. In the earlyyears of Japan’s modernization, Enryo brought forth the idea of“philosophy as the basis of thought for Japanese people livingin the new era,” and showed the importance of “carrying out
philosophy.” He stated: “Philosophy is the study that determines
the principles behind all phenomena. Politics and law, needless tosay, but even fields as distant as natural science and art should befounded on philosophy.” Wishing to “benefit those who are notfinancially well-off and those who do not have the luxury of time,”
Enryo sought to open the doors of Tetsugakukan to as many
people as possible by lowering the school’s tuition. He was among
the first to establish a forerunner to today’s system of distancelearning by compiling lectures in Tetsugakukan Kogiroku(a collection of lectures), and distributing them to students who

would otherwise not have accessto the educational offerings ofthe school. The spirit of Enryo
lives on through the evening
courses and correspondence
courses of today.
Seeking to provide learning
opportunities to those unable to attend regular courses, Enryo
went on lecture tours all over Japan, an activity that became his
lifework. He gave as many as 5,291 lectures in 60 cities and 2,198
towns and villages over a period of 27 years. Moreover, with theambition to transform “Japan as a nation of the Orient” into
“Japan as a world nation,” Enryo traveled around the world threetimes to watch and learn from other countries during the Meiji
era. This reflects his passion to forge the way for Japan to enter a
new age of education.

Main Campus Provides a Cosmopolitan Hub
for Arts and Humanities
Toyo’s Hakusan Campus is located in the heart of Tokyo, and we’re just a few subway stops
away from many of Tokyo’s most iconic areas -Shibuya, Akihabara, Ikebukuro, and Shinjuku.
Yet Hakusan Campus is characterized by a calm atmosphere conducive to learning. Sleek,
modern architecture is offset by lush trees and open spaces. Just off campus, temples andshrines, hundreds of years old, offer opportunities for quiet reflection. Like Tokyo itself,
Hakusan Campus is modern and cosmopolitan with a quiet side just around every corner.
Student life at Toyo is as vibrant and eclectic as the city where it is located. Opportunities
abound for clubs, circles, internships, volunteer programs, and other extracurricular activities.
The contemporary coexisting with the traditional. Frenetic energy balanced by peacefulharmony. Reflection complementing stimulation. That is Toyo University.
