Mission
The University of Tokyo aims to be a world-class platform for research and education, contributing to human knowledge in
partnership with other leading global universities.
The University of Tokyo aims to nurture global leaders with a strong sense of public responsibility and a pioneering spirit,
possessing both deep specialism and broad knowledge.
The University of Tokyo aims to expand the boundaries of human knowledge in partnership with society.
The University of Tokyo and Todai
In English we are known as the University of Tokyo and in Japanese as Tokyo Daigaku (東京大学), which literally translated
is“Tokyo University.”In Japanese, however, compound words are often abbreviated to just the first character of each
component. Abbreviating Tokyo Daigaku leaves Todai (東大), which is how most people refer to us in Japan.
In 2013, the University of Tokyo announced that the abbreviated English name of the University would be UTokyo.

International exchange
Admissions
Study abroad
Study abroad
University of Tokyo students benefit from a wide range of
academic exchange agreements with other universities. In
2012, 429 students visited our partner universities. Most of
these were graduate students (79%). The University hopes
to increase the number of undergraduates that make use
of exchange opportunities.
International students
In May 2013, 2,912 international students enrolled in programs
at the University of Tokyo, 426 (15%) as research students
and 2,486 (85%) as full-time students. Less than 10% of
international students studied at the undergraduate level,
while over 90% studied at the graduate level. The University
is increasing the number of programs available in English at
both the undergraduate and graduate levels, so we expect to
see an increase in the number of undergraduate international
students in coming years. Additionally, many students join us
for short periods during their studies at their home universities.
16
Students can study at the University of Tokyo as either
regular students (degree candidates) or research
students. Admission is in April and October. To be eligible
for admission to an undergraduate program, students
should have completed twelve years of formal education
equivalent to that in Japan, or have been awarded an
International Baccalaureate by the International Bureau
of Baccalaureates. (See the PEAK website for entrance
requirements for that program.) To be eligible for an MA
or PhD program, students should have at the time of
admission a bachelor's or master's degree or a level of
education equivalent to that of a Japanese university.
Eligibility for admission to a combined MA and PhD program
is the same as that for an MA program. Students may also
be admitted if the University recognizes that they have
suitable academic background and experience to undertake
their studies. Admission is granted to most programs after a
written examination, but there are a few graduate programs
that accept students on the basis of past academic
attainments, letters of reference and essays. Please contact
the relevant faculty or graduate school for more details (see
page 28).
