Many three-year courses were turned into four-year courses with the start of the School of Engineering this year. The Research Laboratory of Ceramic Industry was made in 1943, and one year before World War Two ended, the Research Laboratory of Fuel Science and the Research Laboratory of Electronics were founded.Īfter World War II, the new education system was promulgated in 1949 with the National School Establishment Law, and Tokyo Institute of Technology was reorganized. The university had the Research Laboratory of Building Materials in 1934, and five years later, the Research Laboratory of Resources Utilisation and the Research Laboratory of Precision Machinery were constructed. In 1929, the school became Tokyo Institute of Technology, gaining a status of national university, which allowed the university to award degrees. In the following year, the Tokyo Higher Technical School moved from Kuramae to the present site in Ookayama, a south suburb of the Greater Tokyo Area.

To accomplish the quick catch-up to the West, the government expected this school to cultivate new modernized craftsmen and engineers. Tokyo Institute of Technology was founded by the government of Japan as the Tokyo Vocational School on May 26, 1881, 14 years after the Meiji Restoration. History Foundation and early years (1881–1922) 1.2 Great Kantō earthquake and World War II (1923–1945).Tokyo Institute of Technology produced a Nobel Prize laureate in Chemistry Hideki Shirakawa Ph.D.
Tokyo Tech enrolled 4,734 undergraduates and 1,464 graduate students for 2015–2016. Tokyo Tech is organised into 6 schools, within which there are over 40 departments and research centres. Other campuses are located in Suzukakedai and Tamachi. Tokyo Tech's main campus is located at Ōokayama on the boundary of Meguro and Ota, with its main entrance facing the Ōokayama Station. It is generally considered to be one of the most prestigious universities in Japan. Tokyo Tech is the largest institution for higher education in Japan dedicated to science and technology, one of first five Designated National University and selected as a Top Type university of Top Global University Project by the Japanese government. Tokyo Institute of Technology ( 東京工業大学, Tōkyō Kōgyō Daigaku, informally Tokyo Tech, Tokodai or TIT) is a national research university located in Greater Tokyo Area, Japan.
