Keio University is a private, comprehensive educational institution, the oldest of its kind in Japan.
Keio has a proud history as Japan's very first private institution of higher learning, which dates back to the formation of a school for Dutch studies in 1858 in Edo (now Tokyo) by founder Yukichi Fukuzawa. Since the school's inception, the students of Keio have risen to the forefront of innovation in every imaginable academic field, emerging as social and economic leaders.

Keio Founder Yukichi Fukuzawa (1835-1901)
Born during the sakoku period of Japan's isolation from the West, he was passionately devoted to educating his juniors, and wrote several treatises on the value of human rights, equality, and freedom, ushering in a new age in Japanese thought.
