Okayama University was originally founded as the Medical Training Place in 1870 by Okayama-Han. After the abolition of the han system, it became the Okayama Prefectural Medical School in 1880. In 1888 it was merged into a national school, the Third Higher Middle School to constitute the Medical Faculty. The Medical Faculty became an independent school in 1901 and was renamed Okayama Medical Speciality School a four-year medical school for men ages 17–21 or above. In 1922, the school was chartered as Okayama Medical College, a four-year medical college for men ages 19–23 or above.
In 1949, after World War II, the college was merged with other national and public colleges in Okayama Prefecture to establish Okayama University, under Japan’s new education system. The predecessors of the university were Okayama Medical College, the Sixth Higher School , Okayama Normal School Youth’s Normal School and Okayama (Prefectural) Agricultural College.
The new campus (Tsushima Campus) was the former camp of the Imperial Japanese Army (the 17th Division). After occupation army left the camp in 1947, the students of the Sixth Higher School (whose buildings were burnt in the war) guarded the camp, residing in the former military barracks. Later, the camp became their campus. The faculties of Okayama University, except the Medical School, were gradually relocated to Tsushima Campus
