Maintaining the History and Traditions of the Eastern Part of the
Historically Important Mikawa District.
The city of Toyohashi is in Aichi Prefecture and has developed while maintaining
the history and traditions of the eastern part of the historically important
Mikawa district. Toyohashi has also become the economic center of this district.
The cultures of east and west Japan meet here, so the town has developed a
unique flavor. This atmosphere, together with the streetcars and streets rich in
greenery, fosters a human touch - Toyohashi has long been ranked as one of the
most livable cities in Japan and its people remain proud of this.
Presents a History and Tradition that are Unique to Aichi
University. The campus has many pine, cherry and camphor trees, some over 100
years old, as well as a Japanese-style garden. The old main building dates
from the Meiji era and presents a history and tradition that are unique to
Aichi University. The campus area totals 160,000 square meters. This allows
ample room for classroom buildings for each faculty, a library, a research
hall, a graduate school, a computer center, a commemoration hall, a
gymnasium, a students' hall, and so on.

Libraries
The university has a library on each
of its campuses, possessing a total of 1.67
million volumes - mainly books on the related academic fields. This number
of volumes is far greater than the average of private universities (about
300,000 volumes) and that of national universities (about 1.11 million
volumes). The book search system that is available around the clock and
self-study carrels, among other things, make the libraries convenient to
use.

with a rich set of learning materials and certification test brochures on
English and many other foreign languages, is useful for voluntary learning.

people at lunchtime.

the three campuses. Diverse facilities, such as the Media Zone equipped with
DVD and other software contents and hardware, are available.
