Training good doctors with up-to-date medical knowledge and skills
Doctors need more than just knowledge about illness and treatment. They need to engage in dialogue with other medical staff as well as patients and their families. The School of Medicine educates students using a "cumulative method" in which students begin with the basics, study a small number of subjects intensively over a short period of time, and repeat these subjects from different perspectives in the following year to effectively acquire knowledge and develop problem-solving skills through group study, presentations, and discussions in small groups. In addition, the adjacent Special Functioning Hospital employs specialists who are proficient in cutting-edge medical care. We make the most of this fulfilling learning environment to train good doctors who have acquired the abilities necessary for medical professionals.
The enhancement of medical education and the development of medical care are supported by the will of donors who wish to donate their own remains to be put to good use. Teikyo University Shirakikukai asks all those willing to register as body donors.

Mission of the School of Medicine
The mission of the School of Medicine was formulated with the goal of contributing to society by striving to train doctors who can think and make decisions for themselves and take control of their own improvement.
We believe that the basis of medical care is the spirit of love toward humanity. We nurture medical personnel who not only have knowledge and skills, but can also flexibly adapt and play an active role in the new medical horizons of the 21st century.
Through our outcome-based curriculum, students acquire not only knowledge and skills, but also a comprehensive perspective, decision-making skills, and a humane disposition as they are trained to be doctors who can adapt to the rapidly changing medical field.
The Department of Medicine of the School of Medicine has clarified its assessment criteria in order to adopt an evaluation system based on objective perspectives. As a result, we are producing doctors who meet the needs of society.
Students can acquire the skills and spirit of a medical professional while receiving various kinds of academic support in a learning environment adjacent to the affiliated hospital, which is equipped with the latest equipment and facilities.
In order to pass on the latest medical knowledge and skills and nurture good doctors who can provide a wide range of medical treatments, we are working to revitalize the medical education of our university and maintain and improve its quality.
Our curriculum is designed to help students acquire qualifications with attention toward the national examinations. Under the guidance of experienced professors, students will develop the ability to pass the national examination through a practical curriculum.
Facilities and Equipment Used by the School of Medicine
Through practice, students will acquire the basic skills required to be a medical professional. By gaining experience in an environment closer to the actual hospital setting, we aim for students to transition smoothly into hospital training.
Dean of the School of Medicine Masafumi Kawamura
Safe and reliable medical care provides the foundation for all social and economic activity. As society ages, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find human resources to support medical care, so it is essential to train good clinicians who can provide wide-ranging medical care not only at special functioning hospitals that provide cutting-edge medical care, but also at clinics, at home, and in remote areas. To adapt to such an era, it is necessary for each individual healthcare professional to develop his or her own path to refine and apply the knowledge and skills that will enable them to maximize their capabilities in each environment, rather than imitate others. In the 21st century, healthcare is very likely to undergo an outside-the-box transformation, and we at Teikyo University School of Medicine consider it our mission to foster human resources who can adapt to and thrive in this new environment.
