School of Commerce
The School of Commerce was founded in 1904 as the first such division at a private university in Japan, and prides itself on a 90 year tradition. The School of Commerce, by contributing to society and continually meeting the demand of the times during the eras of modernization, post-war reconstruction, and high growth economic expansion, has always been highly evaluated, and is now attracting renewed attention and expectation. The School of Commerce is dedicated to the pursuit of comprehensive commercial science in order to prodeuce graduates able to play leading roles in the various industries developing in an increasingly complex international community. In order to nurture young people that can cope with the ever-changing social climate, the School of Commerce is continuously probing for more effective systems and aiming to raise the quality of its strong curriculum and the teaching staff supporting it, showing a vitality unequaled elsewhere. The School of Commerce was the first school to introduce the seminar system 79 years ago. Limited-enrollment seminar-style classes promote lively activities, combining the voluntary motivation of the students with the enthusiastic and demanding supervision of their professors. At present as many as seventy seminars are conducting research on a daily basis. In order to master the essence of "commerce" as a practical science, the students are instructed not only in the theory of commerce, but are also given real-life knowledge through various forms of practical training and are prepared for a hi-tech society through the active use of computers. The School has also achieved great results in preparing students for the qualifying examinations for certified public accountants, licensed tax accountants and others. Graduate School The Meiji University Graduate School consists of seven departments (Law, Commerce, Political Science and Economics, Business Administration, Arts and Letters, Science and Technology, and Agriculture) based on their respective colleges. Each department offers Master's Courses (the first two years of the Doctoral Program) and Doctoral Courses (the final three years of the Doctoral Program). Previously the aim of the Graduate School was exclusively to train scholars, but in recent years the School has also emphasized the training of expert professionals in highly specialized fields. Each graduate research course is striving to reform its curriculum to flexibly respond to the demands of the changing society and to produce students with outstanding research capabilities and a rich array of expertise who can truly contribute to society. The Doctoral Degree is conferred on students who possess adequate ability to independently perform research activities as a researcher in his or her specialized field of study, but strategies for promoting the conferral of Doctoral Degrees are under active review in each graduate research course. The Master's Degree programs of the Departments of Commerce, Political Science and Economics, Business Administration, and Science and Technology have a special entrance examination system for adults (in the Department of Science and Technology also the Doctoral Degree program) to actively promote their admission. Classes in the commerce and accounting courses of the Department of Commerce in particular are taught mainly on Saturdays out of consideration for working students wishing to obtain a Master's Degree. Floors 19 through 22 of the Liberty Tower are dedicated to the Graduate School's humanities and social science courses, comprising offices, seminar rooms, and research rooms for graduate students.
