, abbreviated to , is one of Japan's most prestigious national universities and the largest public university on the island of Kyūshū. It is located in Fukuoka City, Fukuoka.
Despite the incorporation which has led to increased financial independence and autonomy, Kyushu University is still partly controlled by the Japanese Ministry of Education (Monbukagakusho, or Monkasho).
The Faculty of Law, Kyushu University initiated Japan's first English language LL.M program in October 1994. Taught from a Japanese perspective, the one year program offers students the opportunity to study international economic and business law, and Japanese and comparative law in a Japanese law faculty. A three-year LL.D. program and another one-year Master’s course in Comparative Studies of Politics and Administration in Asia (CSPA) were launched in October 1999. As a result of the success of these programs, in 2001, Kyushu University was invited by the Ministry of Education to host the Young Leader's Program in Law, a program which, among others, seeks to foster good relations among future national leaders in Asia and other countries.

History

After initially being founded as Fukuoka Medical College in 1903, a campus associated with Kyoto Imperial University, Kyūshū Imperial University was established as a separate entity in 1911.
Following World War II, Kyūshū Imperial University gained infamy as officials acknowledged that eight American POWs (Crew of B-29 Superfortress) had been vivisected at Kyūshū Imperial University Hospital in May and June, 1945 under the direction of the Japanese military and Professor Fukujiro Ishiyama. In 1947, Kyūshū Imperial University was renamed to Kyushu University.
On October, 2003, Kyushu University and Kyūshū Institute of Design officially amalgamated into a single university, with Kyushu Institute of Design becoming Kyushu University's Ohashi Campus.
Kyushu University has since 2004 been incorporated as a national university corporation under a new law which applies to all national universities.
