Ranked #1 in the Tokyo metropolitan area for the 16th consecutive year as a "university that takes good care of students," #3 among private universities nationwide as a "university that helps students grow after enrollment," and more!
Musashi University (Nerima-ku, Tokyo / President: Noriyuki Takahashi) was ranked in multiple categories in the university rankings* conducted by Daigaku Tsushin. The university has its roots in the former Musashino High School High School, and since its founding has provided thorough small-group education centered on seminars that foster the ability to "investigate and think independently." In recent years, the university has also been focusing on data science education, and is working to develop a support system and environment for students to learn independently in order to cultivate global leaders with traditional seminar education at its core.

Features of our seminars: Musashi Seminars
Small-group seminars where "everyone plays a leading role"
We prioritize the number of students who can actively participate in each seminar, with an average of 13 students per seminar. Two-way communication between students and others creates friction between knowledge and knowledge, leading to collaborative learning. Faculty members provide thorough support to students from all angles. Musashi University's Seminar aim to help students acquire new knowledge that would be impossible to achieve through self-study. You can see what each faculty's seminars are like on the seminar blog.
