Science Tokyo Homecoming Day 2025 in Ookayama
Science Tokyo Founding
Homecoming Day in Ookayama is an annual event that brings the Science Tokyo community together. On this day each year, Science Tokyo opens its doors to reunite former students and educators, promote meaningful connections between current students and alumni, and welcome members of the local community to learn more about Science Tokyo.
Homecoming Day 2025 will be held on both Ookayama and Yushima campuses.
For our first Homecoming Day as the new Science Tokyo, we are planning a variety of events that can be enjoyed virtually as well as in person, so we hope you will join us on campus or online to celebrate.
