Discussion of private university governance, which is difficult to discern from the outside, is on the rise. The Private Schools Act regulates private universities uniformly regardless of size, but even though such universities range from large-scale institutions with tens of thousands of students to small ones with fewer than a hundred students, nothing is known about the real state of university governance from the perspective of size. However, each year, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) conducts a survey on actual conditions in schools targeted at private universities and gathers basic data on governance, but the results of the survey are not made public. This research project made an information disclosure request to MEXT and aggregated and analyzed survey results using data other than non-disclosed individual data items.The research focuses on size and clarifies one aspect of the specific state of governance in highly diverse private universities, looks at decision-making and checks on associated processes, compares the adequacy of such functions by institution size, points out issues in private university governance, and suggests a course for resolving such issues.
