University Rankings (Japanese edition).

Yukichi Fukuzawa, a self-made entrepreneur opened a school of Dutch studies for scholarship with an international perspective in Edo-period Tokyo (1858) to foster individuals with the ability to take responsibility for their own learning by thinking for themselves and remaining unswayed by the changes of the era. This was the starting point of Keio University.

A place of learning which blossomed on the ideals of self-respect and independence of mind and then turned its gaze to the world beyond

「独立自尊」

Fukuzawa, whose keen sense of the necessity to modernize Japan’s education system was inspired by his travels in Europe and the United States, pioneered the establishment of an educational environment founded on a spirit of practical science which he christened jitsugaku. In this way, Keio University became the epoch-making institution which lit the way forward for Japan some 160 years ago, proposing perspectives which encouraged the “scientific thinking” that would become foundational to the modern global society.

The wellspring of jitsugaku, the “spirit of practical science,” in Japan「実学の精神」

The fair and egalitarian ideal of hangaku hankyo, which emphasizes having no essential distance between teachers and students and merely distinguishes between “those who have learned” and “those who have yet to learn,” has helped produce many leaders in every field of human endeavor, with an emphasis on those in industry. It has facilitated massive contributions to Japan’s modernization.

Hangaku hankyo - producing leaders who have supported modernization in a multitude of fields through human bonds created in a spirit of mutual teaching and learning between teachers and pupils

「半学半教」

Jiga sakko is an expression which captures the essence of a fearless commitment to engage with new domains and unexplored fields in order to both create new precedents and reveal new ways forward. As one of the foremost research universities in Japan, which has expanded to include 10 undergraduate faculties and 14 graduate schools, Keio remains locked in daily battle with challenges in education, research, and medicine to solve global-scale problems.

A research university engaged in finding solutions to global-level problems by mobilizing the philosophy of jiga sakko: “creating history to define the future”

「自我作古」

Studying in Japan. Living in Tokyo.

Unique traditions and the abundant natural scenes of the four seasons coexist in harmony with cutting-edge technologies

shaping the future. Keio University can be found in a prime location in the singular global megalopolis of Tokyo, which

was chosen as the second best city in the world as a location for overseas study in the QS Best Student Cities Ranking

2018. This is a city to which young people are inexorably drawn and a place where information and trends are created

and spread. Traditional events such as festivals go hand-in-hand with burgeoning cultural trends and happenings. It is also

a place where you will encounter generous and warm-hearted people. This is topped off by an enchanting food scene.

Culinary traditions from throughout the world come together in Tokyo, with pride of place being taken up by Japanese

washoku cuisine, now registered as a UNESCO intangible cultural property. Among the many surprises which surely await

you here are one of the busiest intersections in the world where up to 3,000 people can cross at any one time, and a

network of train lines which has all the appearance of a labyrinth. Studying at Keio means living in Tokyo. Now is the time

to experience your fill of Tokyo’s many charms.

05 06Studying in Japan. Living in Tokyo. Studying in Japan. Living in Tokyo.

2020 at KeioTokyo is currently in the global spotlight as the venue for the upcoming 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games. A constant

stream of people from every country in the world, endless stimulation, and boundless progress: One can only wonder what

limitless possibilities lie in wait for you in Tokyo, and the lessons this city beating at the heart of the world will impart. Keio’s

Hiyoshi Campus will host the British Olympic and Paralympic team’s preparation camps *. You too will have the chance to

take part in this global carnival. The time is right for you to join us in creating Tokyo and the year 2020 during this “once in a

lifetime” opportunity.*hosted competitions TBC

Part of the exquisite thrill of this project is the high degree of wriggle room and potential available. There is also a broad

scope in the different threads of these activities - taking in sports, internationalization, diversity, and regional exchange.

Within this context, activities will achieve their ultimate shape and new values will be generated by adding the “external

perspective on Japan” provided by students from overseas. We encourage students from overseas coming to Japan to take

advantage of this unique opportunity and join Keio University in cheering on Team GB and ParalympicsGB, and helping to

make the campus an ever more exciting place to be.

Our activities will live on in the history books.

KEIO 2020 Project

Support, Unite, Deliver.

The student-led KEIO 2020 Project for volunteer supporters of the British Olympic and Paralympic teams. Support the

athletes, unite the team, the region, and Keio as one, and deliver the spirit of omotenashi hospitality to move the

competitors’ hearts. Based on these three major principles, the participants in the KEIO 2020 Project are engaged

in preparations towards 2020. Through hands-on experience, with an emphasis on sports volunteer activities, they

are meanwhile learning to communicate with the athletes, as well as learning about the spirit of the competition,

culture, and organizational structures.

Learning at Keio Universitycreates a boundless future

A familiar and broad networkthat elevates your research

Aiming to be a physician-scientistwith world-class clinical experience

Growth through tea ceremony An environment where you can devoteyourself to learning to enjoy life

After studying at the École Centrale de Lille for two years, I

enrolled in the master’s program at Keio University for two

years through a double degree program. I chose to study in

Japan because I wanted to study outside Europe and in a non-

English-speaking country, and I was very interested in studying

in a new environment with a completely different culture. I was

highly motivated to go to Japan, which I think was a factor that

helped me pass the difficult selection process.

Here at Keio, the students are close with the professors and

there is a family-like bond between everyone in the laboratory.

I am good friends with the other students in my laboratory and

we have fun together every day. I hope to continue studying

here for at least three more years to get my PhD. Because of

Keio’s broad network, my own network has also expanded,

and as a result, I believe that my research will develop into

something more meaningful.

While studying clinical medicine for seven years in China, I saw

many patients suffering from incurable illnesses. I decided to major

in pathology, the field that bridges basic and clinical medicine, to

deepen my knowledge of cancer. After looking into the integrated

basic and clinical medicine and medical care programs at some

universities, I decided to enter Keio University because the program

at Keio’s Graduate School of Medicine was the most interesting to

me and offered everything I was looking for.

I got good results from the research project I carried out over the

past two years and these were well-received when I presented

the outcomes at the Annual Meeting of the Japanese Cancer

Association. I am continuing my research with the goal of

becoming a physician-scientist in Japan. I learned that what is

important is to first figure out what you want to do in the future

and what you need to study to get there.

The Keio University Hospital is in central Tokyo, and in fact is

very close to the main venue for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics and

Paralympics. Just like the athletes who will come from all over the

world to chase their dreams, my fellow students and I are also

singularly focused on our goals.

I chose to study at Keio University because of the all-English

programs and because I could get a scholarship. In addition,

I was particularly interested in studying at Shonan Fujisawa

Campus (SFC) where I heard from a senior student that the

professors there, some who are well-known, are truly passionate

teachers. I was able to apply to the program from overseas and

I think it's great how you can submit a self-introductory video

instead of an interview. This helped me properly convey my

thoughts and enthusiasm for wanting to study at SFC.

I am making progress with my research in my major field,

architecture, and I am learning a lot in the tea ceremony club. In

the beginning, I couldn’t speak any Japanese, but with the help

of my friends, by the time of the university festival, I was able to

serve tea to the guests. Now, I am looking forward to getting a

tea ceremony qualification, which can be gotten after practicing

it for four years. At Keio, you have to be proactive and find

opportunities for yourself. However, by doing this, you will meet

so many different people and I think these are the most valuable

life experiences.

In the PEARL programme where you can learn economics in

English, there is an excellent learning environment in which

professors and small groups of students share opinions and

have frequent discussions on various topics. I have set my

own curriculum and I make sure that I have free time to join

in club activities and do part-time work, giving me an active

and balanced life both on and off campus. I’m surrounded

by Japanese students, international students, junior students,

and of course, professors, and it’s very meaningful to interact

with people from different countries and of different ages.

Keio University has a diverse international color and is highly

regarded worldwide, and I'm sure that my experiences here

will pave the way for my future success. For me, my goals

are to live abroad and to work in an area related to the

automotive industry, and I know that what I learn here will

serve me well, all the while having the time of my life.

On- and off-campus learningcreates a fulfilling student life

Taking a class on industrial economics on Mita Campus. These classes, which are held in Japanese, use Japanese companies as examples and I learn things in great depth.

Away from my desk at university and at my laboratory in Shibuya. I am absorbed in my project.

I have some free time between classes. I go for lunch with friends off-campus or read under the big ginkgo tree.

Taking a break at a café on the first floor. Many creators come to this café so I’m always inspired.

Mid-term presentation of my graduation thesis for my seminar. I get a lot of good advice from my professor and fellow students, and soon I will decide on the direction of my future studies.

Checking the VR program I’ve been working on for my thesis. I pay close attention to details in the music, graphics, and movement to fine tune the user experience.

Gathering information to help me find a job at the Student Lounge. This is an open space where many Japanese and international students interact daily, so I can also exchange information with various people here.

On the 30-minute commute from my laboratory in Shibuya to Hiyoshi Campus. Once there, my fellow laboratory members and I will make presentation materials for the next class.

Being enrolled at the Faculty of Economics, I spend a lot of my

time on Mita Campus. I often use the Media Center where I can

find all kinds of texts and materials, and I often go to the Global

Lounge to interact with other students from all over the world. I

am currently job hunting, and I am very grateful that I can get a

lot of valuable information on campus.

I am currently living a meaningful student life doing research in

Japan. I go between Hiyoshi Campus, where I take classes, give

presentations, and have business project meetings, and Shibuya,

where I conduct research in my lab. However, public transportation is

great in Tokyo, so it doesn’t take long to go from Hiyoshi to Shibuya.

For me, it is an ideal situation for my research.

Keio University offers international students a range of housing, which vary in location, cost, and terms and conditions. Since there is a set number of available rooms in the dormitories, not all applicants will be able to get a room if there are too many applications. Renting private accommodation is another option for students. As it is not common to share a room or a house in Japan, most students who choose to do so rent a single room. Please refer to the website below for further information about student housing.

Our Alumni—From Keio to the World

Graduated from the Graduate School of Economics

Piotr Kroujkov (from Russia / France)

Graduated from the Faculty of Business and Commerce

Namhee Kong (from South Korea)

After coming to Keio as an exchange student, I came back to Tokyo

to do an internship at All Nippon Airways Co., Ltd. (ANA) at the

recommendation of a professor. It was the first time for me to work at a

Japanese company, but I really enjoyed it. Even after the internship, ANA

continued to support my research and I started working there while still

a student.

The quality of life in Tokyo is good, and it is a unique and beautiful city

bustling with excitement. Life here is so great that I chose to stay and

work in Tokyo after graduation. I continued working at ANA, in their

marketing communication division, planning activities for the European

market. When I want to know if the communication activities we carry

out are effective, the research in economics I did at Keio and the data

analysis methods I learned continue to be very useful. As we understand

more about people and their actions, and that of companies and

markets, we can see how small behavioural interventions can influence

the actions of a large number of people. I find this very interesting.

This kind of work is now usually done in the field of marketing

communication, but my goal is to positively affect people beyond that.

For students who are thinking about studying in Japan, I think the most

important thing is to not build walls. You will have a more exciting

experience by taking on many challenges.

For me, Keio University was a place that allowed me to focus

on the road I wanted to take. It was a place that offered a lot of

freedom while fully supporting me whenever I set off to learn

something. After graduating, I went back to South Korea and

got a job at a Japanese construction company. After three years

there, I began to want to work more globally, so I started to

look for jobs in Japan and Singapore.

The really great thing about being a Keio Alumni while I was

job hunting was the Mita-kai* network that exists all over the

world. The chairperson of the Singapore Mita-kai introduced

me to local companies. Singapore is a global country, but I felt

stronger about the potential in the Japanese market, and finally

decided to move to a global company in Japan. Tokyo is a city

that fuses retro with digital, and is the coolest city in the world.

I am very proud to work in this city.

In the future, I want to work in Shanghai where our Asia base

is located, and then in Sweden where our head office is based.

Every day I am working hard to achieve these goals and I’m

sure my Keio network will be a great asset going forward. I will

always cherish my ties to Keio University.

Making use of what I learned at Keio in my work My career is supported by my “connections”

around 70 overseas. They are a platform for

exchange and continued friendship among

Keio alumni. Jukuin throughout the globe

activities, including supporting the students

currently charting their way in various fields.
