Filled Under:

University of Tokyo

The University of Tokyo (東京大学 Tōkyō daigaku?), condensed as Todai (東大 Tōdai?), is an examination college situated in Bunkyo, Tokyo, Japan. The college has 10 resources with a sum of around 30,000 understudies, 2,100 of whom are outside. Its five grounds are in Hongō, Komaba, Kashiwa, Shirokane and Nakano. It is the first of Japan's National Seven Universities. It positions as the most astounding in Asia and twelfth on the planet as indicated by the Times Higher Education World Reputation Rankings 2016. The University of Tokyo is broadly thought to be the most prestigious college in Japan and Asia.

The college was sanctioned by the Meiji government in 1877 under its present name by amalgamating more seasoned government schools for drug and Western learning. It was renamed "the Imperial University (帝國大學 Teikoku daigaku?)" in 1886, and after that Tokyo Imperial University (東京帝國大學 Tōkyō teikoku daigaku?) in 1897 when the Imperial University framework was made. In September 1923, a seismic tremor and the accompanying flames decimated around 700,000 volumes of the Imperial University Library. The books lost incorporated the Hoshino Library (星野文庫 Hoshino bunko?), a gathering of around 10,000 books. The books were the previous belonging of Hoshino Hisashi before turning out to be a piece of the library of the college and were primarily about Chinese reasoning and history.

In 1947, after Japan's annihilation in World War II, it re-expected its unique name. With the begin of the new college framework in 1949, Todai gobbled up the previous First Higher School (today's Komaba grounds) and the previous Tokyo Higher School, which thereupon accepted the obligation of showing first-and second-year students, while the resources on Hongo fundamental grounds dealt with third-and fourth-year understudies.

In spite of the fact that the college was established amid the Meiji period, it has prior roots in the Astronomy Agency (天文方; 1684), Shoheizaka Study Office (昌平坂学問所; 1797), and the Western Books Translation Agency (蕃書和解御用; 1811). These organizations were government workplaces built up by the 徳川幕府 Tokugawa shogunate (1603–1867), and assumed a vital part in the importation and interpretation of books from Europe.
Kikuchi Dairoku, an essential figure in Japanese training, served as president of Tokyo Imperial University.

For the 1964 Summer Olympics, the college facilitated the running segment of the present day pentathlon event.

On 20 January 2012, Todai declared that it would move the start of its scholarly year from April to September to adjust its logbook to the worldwide standard. The movement would be staged in more than five years. But this one-sided declaration by the president was gotten seriously and the college deserted the arrangements.

As indicated by the Japan Times, the college had 1,282 teachers in February 2012. Of those, 58 were women.

In the fall of 2012 and interestingly, the University of Tokyo began two undergrad programs altogether taught in English and intended for worldwide understudies — Programs in English at Komaba (PEAK) — the International Program on Japan in East Asia and the International Program on Environmental Sciences. In 2014, the School of Science at the University of Tokyo presented an all-English undergrad exchange program called Global Science Course (GSC)
