Inokashira Campus Three Faculties Relocate from Hachioji Guide 1 A Kyorin Education, Marked by Ties between Medicine and Humanities In 2016, fi fty years after its establishment, Kyorin University is relocating its Faculty of Health Sciences, Faculty of Social Sciences, Faculty of Foreign Studies, and the Graduate Schools of Health Sciences and International Cooperation Studies from its Hachioji Campus to the new Inokashira Campus in the green, suburban Musashino area, closer in to the center of Tokyo. The new Inokashira Campus will be only a convenient ten-minute walk from the Mitaka Campus that is home to the Faculty of Medicine, Faculty of Health Sciences Department of Nursing (School of Nursing), Graduate School of Medicine, the Kyorin University Hospital operated by the Faculty of Medicine, and the Nursing School affi liated with the Faculty of Medicine. This linkage of the new Inokashira Campus with the Mitaka Campus will strengthen opportunities for academic exchange among the medical and health sciences and the humanities and social sciences, permitting Kyorin University to put its strengths as a comprehensive institution of higher learning to best use in promoting education. “This relocation from the Hachioji Campus should bring the interchanges among these four faculties, including their academic interactions, even closer than before, giving each of them an even stronger, deeper educational foundation.
