Temple University, Japan Campus (Abbreviated: TUJ, Japanese: テンプル大学ジャパンキャンパス) is an international campus of Temple University (located in Philadelphia, PA, United States). TUJ has classrooms and student facilities in two buildings located in Minato-ku, Tokyo, Japan. It is the oldest and largest foreign university in Japan, with an estimated 1,300 matriculated students, of which approximately 60% come from 60 countries around the world (approximately 40% are from Japan).

The university offers many degree programs, including; an A.A., B.A., M.S.Ed., Ed.D., Ph.D., MBA, LL.M. and semester and year-long study abroad programs for U.S. undergraduate and law students. In addition, TUJ offers non-degree programs including English-language (ESL), continuing education for adults, and corporate education. As of July 2016, TUJ enrolls 1,272 degree-seeking students: 940 undergraduates and 332 postgraduates (38 EMBA, 66 Law, and 228 Graduate College of Education). Non-degree enrollment totals 882, including 94 Academic English Program students and 788 Continuing Education students. Additionally, TUJ’s Corporate Education program trains 1,638 corporate employees annually and offers English training programs for educational organizations with an annual participation rate of roughly 858.

Temple University, Japan Campus (TUJ) was established in 1982 in Shiba-Koen, Minato-ku, becoming the first campus of an American university in Japan. The university initially operated under partnership with several local businesses until 1996, when those relationships were terminated and TUJ became a wholly owned operation of Temple University. During this time, the campus was relocated to Minami-Azabu, Minato-ku, where it continues to operate today.

At its inception, the university offered an Intensive English Language Program (IELP) in its Tokyo campus, as well as a Master of Education (M.Ed.) program in both its Tokyo and Osaka centers. Within the next decade it launched an Undergraduate Program, a Doctor of Education (Ed.D.) in TESOL program and a Master of Laws (LL.M.) program, as well as expanded its IELP program to its Osaka center. In 1996, upon becoming a wholly owned operation of Temple University, TUJ launched the Executive MBA program - the first program of its kind in Japan - while simultaneously re-launching its Open College Program and Globalization Program as the Continuing Education and Corporate Education programs, respectively.
