  In terms of both quality and size, Waseda University's Graduate School of Law maybe said to be one of the leading graduate schools of law in the whole of Japan. At present it boasts more than 60 full-time faculty members; if part-time lecturers are added to this figure, the total number of faculty members exceeds 130. The number of students studying for either a Master's degree or a Doctoral degree exceeds 300. Former students of the Graduate School of Law are now playing prominent roles in the academic and legal professions, as well as in the world of affairs.

 

  The Graduate School of Law is organized into three fields of study: Private Law, Public Law, and Fundamental Legal Studies. In each field a wide variety of courses are taught, and it may safely be said that their number exceeds that given in any other graduate school of law in Japan. From 1994, special themes, together with a great number of courses related to these themes, have been established, with a view to providing an opportunity for working citizens with a clear set of aims to reeducate themselves and deepen their research.
