Since its foundation in 1949, Chiba University has achieved national acclaim in many fields of basic and applied sciences, and has grown to become a highly ranked university that has contributed significantly to the success of Japanese society during a period of accelerated change and economic growth.

Chiba University claims leadership in the advancement of science, engineering, technology, research and education methodologies.

The University's prominence in social sciences and humanities has evolved in the historical context of grave challenges to established values, ethics and institutions in the time of economic globalization and the broad access to information. For all of the success in the past, Chiba University is aware of the need of continual adaptation to the changing demands of society resulting from changes in the relationship between the university, the community and the public and private sector.
