Sendai, Japan
Tohoku University is a Japanese national university that was founded in 1907. It is located in Sendai, Japan and is considered one of the most prestigious universities in the country. The university has five campuses: Katahira, Kawauchi, Aobayama, Seiryo and Amamiya. It is ranked among Japan’s leading universities and is considered one of the top universities in the world.
In 1911, Vice Minister of Education Masataro Sawayanagi, moved to Sendai to become Tohoku University’s first president. Sawayanagi firmly believed that academic research should be integrated with education. He also believed that a university should not discriminate based on class or gender. Following this principle, Tohoku University accepted graduates from technical and higher normal schools, and despite opposition from the government at that time, became Japan’s first university to admit female students in 1913. As of 2022, there are more than 1,700 international students at the university representing 90 different countries and regions. In total there are around 10,000 undergraduates, 4,000 master’s students and 2,600 doctoral students enrolled.
