We foster individuals with legal expertise and the prowess of logical thinking to make impactful contributions to society

Law and politics are closely intertwined with our daily lives. It is crucial for ordinary citizens, not just those aspiring to legal professions such as lawyers and civil servants, to acquire legal knowledge. In Faculty of Law, based on our university's Educational Guidelines, students acquire fundamental legal knowledge, develop judgment, logical thinking skills, and flexible thinking that transcends the boundaries of existing academic disciplines. Our aim is to cultivate individuals who can address diverse national and regional issues from a global perspective and respond to the legal needs of society.

What image do you have of Faculty of Law? "It's rigid," "It's pointless unless you're aiming for legal or civil service careers," "It's not versatile." If you have such preconceived notions, they're wrong. Both law and political science are essential academic fields for solving various social problems. The logical thinking skills cultivated through your studies here will be a valuable asset in a variety of workplaces. You'll also develop a flexible sensibility for a dynamically changing society. We welcome students who are undecided about their future goals. Our faculty boasts a diverse range of faculty members, including scholars specializing in law and political science, as well as those with practical experience in the legal profession, government, journalism, and more. Based on our School Philosophy, we aim to cultivate humane, specialized individuals through Practical learning.
