TIU was founded in 1965 with a focus on business and commerce, and upon earning accreditation from the Ministry of Education the college has grown into a private university that now encompasses five undergraduate schools and four graduate schools in the Greater Tokyo Area. TIU also has a sister school relationship with Willamette University, as well as an American campus adjunct to WU's campus. TIU developed an English-based undergraduate degree providing majors in Business Economics and International Relations in 2014 called the English Track Program, and the international student body has since grown to roughly 1,200 students from over 60 countries. At present, approximately one in every eight students at TIU is enrolled in the English-track degree program. ()
