In 1881, at the time when the Japanese government introduced the new school system under which everybody is entitled to

an equal education, the college that later became Tokyo Kasei University was founded. It was originally called Wayo Saihou

Denshujo (The School for Japanese and Western Seamstress Techniques). Since then, the school has been producing a large

number of able female teachers.

The school was promoted to the status of university in 1949. The new university aimed at the enhancement of domestic life

among ordinary people. It tried to contribute both to the society as a whole and to each student's personal happiness. It now

has nine departments in two faculties, in addition to a junior college and a graduate school.

Since its foundation, Tokyo Kasei University has taken as its creed “Independence and Autonomy for Women,” and its motto

has been “Affection, Diligence, and Intelligence.” We are proud of our long tradition, and in 2011 we will celebrate the

institution's 130th anniversary.

The University's educational philosophy is as follows:

1. To educate people so that they can walk the path of the school spirit of “Independence and Autonomy.”

2. To educate people so that they can practice the “Affection, Diligence, and Intelligence” principle in life.

The motto of our university, “Affection, Diligence, and

Intelligence,” dates from 1951, when the President

Seishiro Aoki adopted it in his belief that we should

serve other people with the affection we would like to

have shown to ourselves, and that this service to others

should be pursued with constant effort and balanced

judgment.

Since then, this guideline has continued to inspire the

students and alumnae in daily life as well as on

campus.

President’s Message

The Stone Monument of the Wisdom of Life

Tokyo Kasei University has long been educating students

based on the foundation principles, originated by the

founder Tatsugoro Watanabe: “We try to breed able

women who can answer to the calls of the time, who will

listen to the ordinary people's needs, who will support

women's independence and autonomy, and who will

become teachers adaptable to the changing times and

excellent in both academic disciplines and techniques.”

We are still educating students in this spirit, which is the

utmost goal of Tokyo Kasei University.

CONTENTS

The site of our university’s Itabashi campus in Jujo is

only a five-minute train ride from Ikebukuro. Close as the

campus is to this bustling center of downtown Tokyo

life, its lush mixture of trees, plants, and flowers is a great

help to those who wish to concentrate on their studies.

On the same campus are the university’s attached

schools — a nursery, a kindergarten, and a junior and

senior high school for girls.

Close by is the Shakujii River, one of the main waterways

to the Metropolis. The arch of cherry flowers over this

canal presents a breathtaking spectacle, which attracts

tens of thousands of people in spring. In 2008 and 2009,

several new buildings were constructed, and our two

faculties began to share Itabashi Campus.

Itabashi Campus

A 45-minute ride on the Seibu Line from Ikebukuro will

bring you to the Inariyama Koen Station, from which it is

a five-minute walk to the Sayama Campus of our

university.

Since the Faculty of Humanities moved from Sayama to

Itabashi in April 2009, the Sayama campus has changed

its functions.

While no longer the site of regular undergraduate classes ,

it provides an ideal setting and excellent facilities for

various one-shot classes and short-term courses designed

for local communities, as well as an intensive in-service

recurrent education course for local teachers, other

extended education programs, and also several extra

curriculum activities for regular students from the Itabashi

campus.

The Community Cooperation Developing Center was established on the Sayama

campus in 2005. The purpose of the Center is to open Sayama Campus's educational

facilities and functions to the local communities. Also, through both practical and

educational activities, we aim at developing a cooperative relationship with the

communities, both through research and through working with local people to solve

local problems and to expand university education to the communities.

To attain those goals, we hold councils with the cities of Sayama and Iruma, provide

the communities with pertinent information, give consultations, assign volunteer

activities in the communities to our students, engage in activities to develop the

communities, and offer various extension courses and other activities for the

university and the communities to cooperate in.

gynecologists and psychiatrists as medical specialists. The center has school-doctor

contracts with the departments of internal medicine and gynecology of several

hospitals. It offers solutions, consultation, and advice to each student and staff member

of Tokyo Kasei University in social, psychological, and health problems of all kinds. It

also offers advice on preventive medicine and physical exercise.
