Tokyo Institute of Technology has decided to set up a women's quota in the comprehensive type and school recommendation type selection from the 2024 entrance examination.The aim is to increase the ratio of female students at once through efforts to promote diversity and inclusion by utilizing diverse human resources.

 東京工業大学によると、2024年4月入学者の選抜で物質理工学院、情報理工学院、生命理工学院、環境・社会理工学院に合計58人の女子枠を導入、2025年4月入学者の選抜で残る理学院、工学院に合計85人の女子枠を設ける。これで全学院の女子枠が143人になり、学士課程1学年の募集人員1,028人の14%に相当する。

 For the comprehensive and school-recommended selections, we will change the perspective of evaluation by establishing a general quota that can be applied regardless of gender and a female quota that only females can apply.At present, the number of applicants for comprehensive and school-recommended selections of 98 will be increased to 227.The breakdown is 84 general slots and 143 female slots.Women can apply for both general and women's slots.The increase in the recruitment quota for comprehensive and school recommendation type selection will reduce the quota for general selection, and there will be no change in the total number of quotas.

 Tokyo Institute of Technology currently selects students through a general selection process conducted by the university as a whole and a comprehensive/school-recommended selection process independently selected by each school.About 9% of the students enrolled are general selection, and about 1% are comprehensive or school-recommended selection.For the comprehensive type and school recommendation type selection, the School of Science conducts the school recommendation type, and each other school conducts the comprehensive type.
