Nihon University (日本大学; Nihon Daigaku abbreviated as 日大 Nichidai) is the largest university in Japan

. Akiyoshi Yamada, the minister of justice, founded Nihon Law School (present: Department of Law) in October 1889.Most of the universities campuses are located in the Kantō region, the vast majority in Tokyo

or surrounding areas, though two campuses are as far away from Tokyo as Shizuoka Prefecture and Fukushima Prefecture. Unlike the separate campus systems of many American universities (eg. the University of California or the SUNY systems), these campuses do not represent separate universities, but normally accommodate a single college or school (gakubu, 学部, in Japanese).

The university comprises a federation of colleges and institutes known for having produced numerous CEO of Japanese companies.The College of Art (日芸 — Nichigei) is well known as it produces many artists who represent Japan in the fields of photography, theater, and cinema.
