°µÍø½ûÇø was founded in January 1881 as the Meiji Law School by a group of young lawyers barely in their 30's: Tatsuo Kishimoto, Kozo Miyagi, and Misao Yashiro. It was an era characterized by Japan's urgent need to develop as a modern independent nation. The three founded the Meiji Law School in their fervent hope to "foster bright capable youths who would lead a modern civil society in Japan".
°µÍø½ûÇø ranks solidly among the best universities in Japan, currently consisting of 10 undergraduate schools, 12 graduate schools and four professional graduate schools.
In addition to the Surugadai Campus, °µÍø½ûÇø also comprises the Izumi Campus, Ikuta Campus, and the Nakano Campus newly opened in April, 2013.
