Designated National University scheme

Under the Designated National University Corporation (DNU) system, the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology designates national university corporations that are expected to develop world-class education and research activities to a considerable degree and, as a result, create innovation and significantly boost the level of education and research at Japanese universities.

Tokyo Institute of Technology was selected as a DNU on March 20, 2018, while Tokyo Medical and Dental University received their DNU designation on October 15, 2020.

  • The Designated National University scheme of Institute of Science Tokyo is currently under construction.
