According to Tokyo Metropolitan University, the corporate name will be changed from Tokyo Metropolitan University to "Tokyo Metropolitan Public University Corporation" due to the change of school name.At the same time, the Graduate School of Industrial Technology established by Tokyo Metropolitan University will change its name to "Advanced Institute of Industrial Technology, Tokyo".

　President Jun Ueno said, "Amid major changes in social structure due to technological innovation, changes in industrial structure, and globalization, the name change to Tokyo Metropolitan University will be an opportunity for the university to achieve further development," said Haruo Shimada. As an educational institution established by the university, the responsibility to society will increase, such as returning the results of education and research to the metropolitan government, but I hope that the presence of the university will improve. "
Governor Koike also emphasized at a regular press conference that "there is a nuance of stepping up anew, not just returning the name."

　Tokyo Metropolitan University was established in 2005 when Shintaro Ishihara was governor, integrating four universities including Tokyo Metropolitan University and a total of four junior colleges.However, there were voices within the university who opposed the new name from the beginning, and in the student questionnaire in the fall of 4, nearly half said that the university name and name were raised as points that they wanted to improve.
For this reason, after Governor Koike said at the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building meeting in July that "renaming to Tokyo Metropolitan University is one way of thinking," he was considering measures such as holding a council on campus.
