Laurea in Educazione

The Faculty of Education of Soka University started from the educational philosophy of Professor Tsubasaro Makiguchi, a founder of Soka Education, and based on the three founding principles "Highest degree in humanistic education" of the founder Daisuke Ikeda, starting with the professors, we will foster capable people, who are widely involved in educational activities. In our faculty, education is regarded not simply as "transferring knowledge and skills that is decided", but as "a work that encourages learners to live better, while eliciting their original values." For that reason, all students gathered at the Faculty of Education not only wish themselves to live better but also by managing their skills/abilities to enhance the value of others.

Soka University has been focusing on humanistic education and international exchange since its founding. The achievements of education and international exchange were highly appreciated and the university was selected to be one of the 37 universities in the "Top Global University Project" of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology in 2014.

Soka University focuses on creating an educational environment that international students can easily learn. Courses in English are also available in undergraduate programs and graduate schools. In addition, International dormitories are also available to both international students and Japanese students. This campus will continue to improve with its plentiful learning environment where many international students from various backgrounds study together and multiple languages interact.
