Toyo Women's School of Dentistry, the forerunner of Toyo Women's College, was founded at the site of the present-day Hongo Campus by Hisashi Uda (1881-1968), a business-oriented educator who was dedicated to improving the level of self-sufficiency of women. During its years of operation until 1950, the school trained about 3,000 dentists.
Inheriting the founder's concerns for women's self-reliance and responding to postwar educational reforms, Toyo Women's College, a liberal arts junior college, was founded. A highlight of the new school was its English studies based curriculum with a special focus on learning English for practical usage.The college built a second campus in Nagareyama, Chiba Prefecture, in 1967.
In response to the needs of the times, Toyo Gakuen University, a four-year coeducational university was established, sharing the Nagareyama Campus with Toyo Women's College. The Faculty of Humanities of the new university has concentrated on English language education and the development of international awareness.
As a further stage of growth of Toyo Gakuen University into the global age, the Faculty of Business Administration began operation at the Hongo Campus. A coeducational program was created for the purpose of teaching practical business administration techniques based on the case method approach.
