Providing global education based on “internationalism,” one of the University’s educational philosophies 

At a time when leaving the country was forbidden, Jo Niijima ventured out of Japan to learn about the world and feel the world for himself. His life abroad awakened him to the importance of education, which led him to establish Doshisha. Doshisha University fosters an attitude of learning with an eye to the world, just as its founder, Jo Niijima, did.
