Gifu Keizai University was founded in 1967 in Ogaki in Gifu Prefecture in response to intense demands from, and with the active support of, the local government, educational sector, and business community. Now, over forty years later, the University encompasses two faculties, four departments, and a graduate school, offering courses in Business Administration Information Sciences and Welfare Policy, in addition to a Japanese language program for international students.

Following Gifu Keizai University's mission to foster the development of capable, contributing members of society, we offer a broad range of options for both education and research.

Gifu Keizai University now actively recruits international students and offers various study programs, including a one-year Japanese language course, a four-year undergraduate program, and a two-year graduate program. At Gifu Keizai University, we welcome all enthusiastic and motivated international students.

The city of Ogaki - home to Gifu Keizai University - is located in Gifu Prefecture, in the middle of Japan between Nagoya and Kyoto's large urban centers. Ogaki has a population of around 150,000, with manufacturing as the primary industry, complemented by computer software's growing production in more recent years.

Nestled near the Japan Alps, Gifu Prefecture has one of Japan's most attractive natural environments and is well-balanced between economic development and protection of these natural surroundings. The area is thus incredibly inspiring to the students of the University.
