Tokyo Medical and Dental University is unique among medical and dental universities in Japan in that it has four systems of graduate education and research: 1) Medical and Dental Sciences, 2) Health Sciences, 3) Biomedical Sciences -- Education Division, and 4) Biomedical Sciences -- Research Division. Organizationally, TMDU has four faculties (Medicine, Dentistry, Health Sciences and Oral Health Sciences), an undergraduate College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, two research institutes (Biomaterials and Bioengineering, Medical Research), a teaching hospital attached to the Faculty of Medicine, a teaching hospital attached to the Faculty of Dentistry and a Dental Technician School.At TMDU we do our best to produce scientists who show intellectual curiosity in all that they do and who expend every possible effort in seeking the truth. These qualities are necessary for successfully engaging in clinical practice or research. Our university thus aims to not only train medical professionals who can meet the critical needs of society, but to also enable our graduates to become researchers and leaders who can do pioneering work in our internationalized world. We make it our mission to assure students that the university is not a place to study, but rather is a place where one learns how to study and how to think independently.To pursue these goals, TMDU has three educational philosophies:1. To provide students with a broad education and a rich sensibility.2. To educate creative people capable of diagnosing and solving problems independently.3. To train medical professionals who have an international outlook.Thank you for your interest in Tokyo Medical and Dental University.For more information, please visit .
