Koshien University is sophisticated.

Koshien University is located in a sophisticated area rich in urban attractions. Among these attractions is the famous "hana-no-michi"(flowery avenue) to the Takarazuka Opera House, a picturesque building in Spanish-Colonial style. There are also the highly praised Vega Municipal Music Hall; the imaginative Memorial Museum of Tezuka Osamu, the world-famous animated cartoon artist. This sophisticated environment helps our students to refine their life styles.

Koshien University is up and coming.

In the year 2003, the University celebrates its 36th Anniversary. We are still in our youth, not only in years, but also in growing up our aspirations. Which other universities can rival our dreams?

Koshien University is kind and supportive.

As the number of our students is rather small, they have several advantages. They can enjoy attending small classes even from their very first year. They can obtain closer contact with each other and their teachers. They can avoid falling into the so-called "May crisis". After all, they can form lasting friendships at this cordial University.

Koshien University nourishes minds.

To enrich our minds is the ultimate aim of our education, not only at the College of Humanities, but also at the College of Nutrition and at the College of Business Administration and Information Science. Study and research in all areas should foster the mind - that is the principle of our University.

Koshien University is committed to the pleasure of study.

Our teachers and students admire those colleagues who find pleasure in all their academic activities. It is because, they believe, a playful intellect constitutes genuine curiosity. They also admire those who are joyfully disinterested, freed from pursuing any narrow ideology, even freed from sticking fast to their pleasure principle. They also praise those who conduct their independent and courageous activities. They believe that only such pleasant activities, after all, can create a brave new world.

Koshien University is becoming one of the best Universities.

This is not a tall tale. We think it possible for our University to reach to the highest status in due course. It is easier for a small University to come to embody, in the highest degree, the qualities of an ideal educational community. Moreover, in the present days good quality is taken more significant than large quantity. I invite you, then, to join our united ambitions, our united intellectual adventures, our united vision for a better future.
