About our school

The School of Social Sciences was established in 1966, uniting the evening divisions of three Waseda faculties - the School of Political Science and Economics, the School of Law, and the School of Commerce. Our goal is to offer students an education that is comprehensive, integrated, and interdisciplinary; in other words, an education that is not narrowly confined to conventional fields of specialization.
