On-campus day care centers

Institute of Science Tokyo currently has three on-campus day care centers to help faculty, staff, students, and others balance their work and study with childcare. Tech Tech Nursery on Ookayama Campus, Waku Waku Nursery on Yushima Campus, and Suku Suku Nursery on Suzukakedai Campus are important facilities for faculty and staff members, researchers, and students who are raising children while pursuing their educational and research activities. Tech Tech Nursery also contributes to the local community by reserving part of its capacity for children from Tokyo’s Ota City. Waku Waku Nursery takes the same approach with children from Bunkyo City.
