In 1944 (Showa 19), it was renamed Tokyo College of Foreign Affairs, and in 1949 (Showa 24), it became a national university under the new system. As of 2010 (Heisei 22), the School of Foreign Languages ​​has seven courses: Europe and America 1, Europe and America 2, Russia and Eastern Europe, East Asia, Southeast Asia, South and West Asia, and Japan. In addition to the Graduate School of Global Studies, it also has the Institute for Languages ​​and Cultures of Asia and Africa. It also has the Japanese Language Education Center for International Students (Fuchu, Tokyo) for international students. In April 2004, following the enforcement of the National University Corporation Act, it became a national university corporation. It is located at 3-11-1 Asahi-cho, Fuchu, Tokyo.
