CREATING GLOBAL EXCELLENCE - www.tohoku.ac.jp
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.

For International Students Although Tohoku University has several student residences, there are not enough rooms to accommodate everyone. To make up for the shortfall, we provide various kinds of information on how to find your own accommodations.
We cannot provide accommodations in student dormitories for students staying less than 3 months. They should look for private apartments or hotels.
