The Toyota Technological Institute (豊田工業大学, Toyota Kōgyō Daigaku) is a university located in Nagoya, Japan. Founded in 1981 by a large endowment from Toyota Motors Corporation, it originally only accepted students with some industrial work experience.


In 2003 Toyota also opened the Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago, jointly with the University of Chicago. This campus is mainly for the Ph.D students, studying Machine Learning, Algorithms & Complexity, Computer Vision, Speech Technologies and Computational Biology.[3]


Although TTI is a new and tiny university, it has been rapidly growing its reputation, as TSU ranked TTI as the 5th best Japanese university in 2010.[4] In this ranking, TTI has a best employment rate among all Japanese Universities.
