Tokyo Institute of Technology

1. 1

   The short answer

   Tokyo Institute of Technology was a public university in Japan. It suits applicants who want to understand its former status and website, but they should confirm current admissions arrangements because it merged into the Institute of Science Tokyo on 1 October 2024.

   What you can study

   Tokyo Institute of Technology was a public university in Meguro, Tokyo, Japan. A current programme catalogue is not published in the details available here, so confirm the subjects and degrees now offered through the Institute of Science Tokyo website.

   Getting in

   As the university merged with Tokyo Medical and Dental University on 1 October 2024, international applicants should check the current admissions route on the Institute of Science Tokyo website. Confirm entry requirements, document deadlines, and whether you should apply to the successor institution rather than to Tokyo Institute of Technology.

   What it costs

   A tuition fee is not published in the details available here, so confirm the current rate with the admissions office of the Institute of Science Tokyo. Living costs in Tokyo should also be checked separately before you apply.

5. 5

   Coming from abroad

   The language of instruction is not published, so confirm it before applying. You should also check whether your degree level is still open to international applicants, what visa support is offered, and which office handles admissions after the merger.

   How it compares

   Japan has 571 universities, so Tokyo Institute of Technology sat within a large national higher-education system. Its key distinguishing point is that it was a public university in Tokyo and has now been merged into the Institute of Science Tokyo, so applicants should compare the successor institution’s current offerings rather than treat this as a standalone option.
