It is equipped with Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) classrooms, a PC-practice room, and a PC room shared by students, bustling with people working on reports and browsing information on the Internet at all times. Lecture Hall 2, with impressive glass walls reaching to the ceiling and a large open stairway, houses the Entrance Examination Section and the Extension Center on the first floor, and an English Lounge and international exchange facilities on the second.

The building also has substantial facilities to cultivate your PC skills, such as a PC classroom and a PC room shared by students.
This building was completed in April 2003 as part of TIU's 40th anniversary celebrations. Its impressive facilities include a spacious vaulted foyer at the center enclosed by glass panels and a large stairway. The IT-integrated lecture rooms allow various classes can be held accomodating a wide range of lecture styles.

The three-story building with a high ceiling functions as the main gym. On both sides are another gym (medium-sized) and three martial art rooms.
Students have lunch in the open space of the Dining Hall, where their favorite menus, ranging from daily specials to noodles and desserts, are offered.
The tiered auditorium with a seating capacity of approximately 850 is used for concerts, lectures, student plays, and movies.
The students can learn foreign languages by themselves by selecting the materials of their choice using multimedia. The corner also provides learning materials for fun. The students can watch their favorite western films with English subtitles, as well as Japanese films dubbed into English, for example.
The computer-assisted language laboratory uses teaching materials such as DVDs and CDs, allowing students to learn foreign languages at their own pace.
Every student is assigned one computer and thus can acquire PC skills, ranging from basic operations to advanced information processing skills, which will be essential in future.
The students can use any of the 200 Internetready PCs (the total on both campuses) from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. (to 5:00 p.m. on Saturdays).
The multimedia classroom provided with two 150-inch large projectors connected to the Internet can be used for interactive joint classes with TIUA students.
The second floor of Lecture Hall 2 with its open design, large windows, and natural wood flooring provides a relaxed atmosphere. This floor, where the International Exchange Section and a foreign student meeting room are located, functions as a venue for international communications.
English-speaking teachers are stationed in the LEAP corner at all times, providing counseling concerning the understanding of lectures, how to accomplish tasks, and the method of learning. Texts and supplementary learning materials are also provided. You can use the corner to follow-up on classes you missed as well as for consultation on studying overseas.
(*LEAP stands for Language Education Assistance Program.)
The English Lounge is a corner with a relaxed atmosphere, where you can talk with foreign students and other native English speakers, thus cultivating practical conversation skills and solidifying your command of English. The lounge is open during summer and spring breaks to high school students and local residents, with various menus on offer.
TIU uses computers in a number of classes, with the total number used in all three campuses being approximately 1,300. New students are given a user ID, and are then freely allowed to use the campus network environment, while the preparation of reports and data browsing are performed daily in classes and seminars. This allows you to acquire basic skills in any of the departments and schools.
Approximately 1,300 PCs in the three campuses of TIU are connected online, any of which can be used to access the Internet via the high-efficiency server. This allows both students and teachers alike to enjoy a stress-free high-speed network environment.
