History

The university was established in 1965. The founder was Toshima Araki (荒木俊馬, 1897–1978), and Hideo Iwakuro (岩畔 豪雄 Iwakuro Hideo, 10 October 1897 – 22 November 1970), the Japanese spy master who established the Nakano School during World War II.[2][3]

The university was opened with two faculties: Economics and Science. Later it added faculties and the graduate schools (master's courses in 1969, doctoral courses in 1971).

In 2020, at least 16 students enrolled at the university contracted COVID-19[4][5][6] An official from the Kyoto municipal government described the growing of COVID-19 contractions at the university as "a cluster."[6][5]
