History of our school festival

Tokyo International University was founded in 1965 in Kasumigaseki on the Tobu Tojo Line (the school name at that time was International University of Commerce). In honor of Kasumigaseki, our university's school festival is known as the "Shukasai" and marks the 51st anniversary of the festival.
International exchange has been active at this university since its inception, and many international students are studying there. However, after the introduction of a curriculum that allows students to obtain a degree in English without going through Japanese, an increasing number of international students are enrolling. It became an environment like studying abroad in the Western world while staying in Japan. International students from more than 100 countries (regions) around the world are currently studying at our university, and international exchanges are taking place on campus on a daily basis. Based on such a global environment, in 2018 the name was changed to "International Festival" with the aim of holding a school festival unique to our university that is a little different from other universities. This year marks the 5th school festival, and the 56th in total.
