Musashi University has its roots in the former Musashi High School, Japan's first private seven-year high school, and since its founding has provided thorough small-group education centered on seminars to cultivate the ability to "research and think for oneself." The university places importance on the number of students who can actively participate, with an average of 1 people per seminar. Faculty members provide thorough support to students from all angles, aiming to help them acquire new knowledge that would not be possible through self-study. In recent years, the university has also been focusing on liberal arts and science education.
In addition, the Career Support Center has staff members with career consultant qualifications on-site, and they conduct individual interviews with all students in their third year. Staff members, seminar instructors, alumni, and fourth-year students work together both inside and outside the university to support each and every student, including the "Musashi Job Academy," where graduates who are active in society, fourth-year students who have already secured employment, and third-year students who are just about to start job hunting interact in small groups by industry. The center draws out students' independent career images and helps them make satisfactory career choices.
