History
Surugadai University was founded by Haruyuki Yamazaki (山崎春之) (1926-2010). His father, Toshiharu Yamazaki (山崎寿春), was one of the early Japanese students studying abroad in the Meiji period. He was accomplished as a Harvard- and Yale-trained scholar of English literature and a professor of Meiji University. Toshiharu successfully established a cram school for high school students and had a lifelong dream of establishing an American-style liberal arts college in Japan.
Taking over the cram school and following his father's wishes, Haruyuki established Surugadai University as a college of law in 1987.
Since then, the college has evolved into a university of five undergraduate faculties and four graduate schools.
