Seijo University is a private university located in Seijo, Setagaya-ku, Tokyo, Japan. Seijo has its origins in 'Seijo Gakuen' Seijo educational Institutes, which was founded in 1917, by Dr. Masataro Sawayanagi. After the period of 'Seijo Higher School', under the pre-World War II education system, the present Seijo University was established in 1950. Since then, we have adhered to the founding philosophy, which respects the individuality and creativity of our students, particularly by retaining small-class education. We have endeavored to provide education of the highest quality by encouraging initiative and independent thought, through close interaction between students and professors. Our free and relaxed learning atmosphere cultivates the intellect, sensitivity and sophistication, enabling us to send a great number of well-prepared graduates into society.
