The Spirit of Rikkyo University — The Academy of Freedom
Founded in 1874 Rikkyo University is one of Japan's oldest and most respected private universities. Originally founded as a college of liberal arts, Rikkyo University still maintains this tradition as an "academy of freedom."
As a philosophy of education, "freedom" means providing a rich and challenging learning environment while respecting the unique nature of every individual. The knowledge thus created promotes a broadened outlook, an enhanced ability for independent thought, and therefore enables the individual to think beyond constraints and limitations.
Rikkyo's spirit can be defined as this spirit of freedom that urges students to go beyond the superficial, to think independently and to strive to discover the essence of all things. Rikkyo University today is comprised of two modern campuses housing ten colleges, fourteen graduate schools, and a community of over 150,000 alumni in Japan and throughout the world.
