Shibaura Institute of Technology (SIT) was founded by Shiro Arimoto in 1927 as Tokyo High School of Engineering and Commerce with the aim of “nurturing engineers who learn from society and contribute to society.” Since then, it has been committed to nurturing engineers who can search for truths through practical learning; encouraging students to have a strong sense of ethics and comprehensive knowledge; and engendering in them a spirit of independence, and thus contributing to social development.
This is a brief outline of SIT’s nearly 100-year history, as well as an introduction to books that describe that history in more detail.
