In Kodaira, in the western part of the Tokyo Metropolitan Area, Kaetsu University offers higher education courses that combine traditional aspects of commercial education with cutting edge ideas. As a result, the courses offered by Kaetsu University are unique, not only in the Tokyo area but in the whole of Japan. The origins of Kaetsu University lie in the innovative ideas of Taka Kaetsu, our foundress. In 1903 took the highly unusual step of establishing a commercial school explicitly aimed at the education of young women. The school continued to develop and grow as a higher education institution during the 1980s and 1990s, and since 2012 has consisted of two faculties (the Faculty of Management and Economics and the Faculty of Business Innovation) and a Graduate School of Business Innovation offering Master and Doctor of Business Innovation courses. The University has continued to aim at equipping graduates with a keen sense of the roles required of them in today's business world. Kaetsu University has also become well known for its work in two areas now considered to be of great importance in Japan's educational world. The first emphasizes first-year courses to provide a smooth progression from high school to university education; the second is providing students with actual business experience both off and on campus. The Japanese mass media has been quick to pick up on the University's pioneering work in these two areas. Kaetsu University has also been one of the first universities in Japan to promote "active learning" and is well known for its early efforts in equipping the campus with the necessary up-to-date classroom facilities and IT network system. Kaetsu University is also famous for its women's volleyball team. The team has been top of the all-Japan college league several times, and many graduates have gone on to play professionally. The mission of Kaetsu University today lies in developing courses that will produce the Japanese business people of the future and strengthen the international aspects of its education to produce business people who can be active throughout the world. Through its links with universities in the United Kingdom, the United States, and China, the University actively promotes student exchange and overseas students' acceptance into courses in Japan. The University also boasts new and innovative English language education courses. Drawing on its traditions of commercial education and its emphasis on developing an innovative and creative sense for business, Kaetsu University will strive even more challenging to produce graduates who are active not only in Japan but on the world stage.- In Kodaira, in the western part of the Tokyo Metropolitan Area, Kaetsu University offers higher education courses that combine traditional aspects of commercial education with cutting edge ideas.
