Motohiro HASHIMOTO Dean, Faculty of LawProfessor's Welcome
Chuo University was founded as the English Law School in 1885. Eighteen young lawyers assembled at Kanda in Tokyo to teach English law and to modernize Japanese society. Since that day, Chuo University has played an important role in legal education in Japan. One quarter of all lawyers in Japan are graduates of Chuo University, as are two Supreme Court Judges currently serving on the bench. The Prosecutor General is also a graduate of our University.
