Founding
The University of New Edo was established by a charter of the New Japanese government on October 1, 1836. It was an amalgamation of the existing medicine, chemistry, and agricultural schools. The university was officially inaugurated on July 1, 1838, with classes beginning in September of that year. There were only 30 students choosing four majors: medicine, chemistry, physics, and agriculture. Kanō Watanabe was the university's first chancellor, who would hold the position until his death in 1852.

In 1857, a second campus was established in Kurokotan, which included the Faculty of Arts and Education.

Women were admitted to the university beginning in 1888.

Georgeland era
Until the establishment of the Dominion of Georgeland in 1914, the language of instruction of the university was Japanese. Although Japanese continued to be used at the university, it was soon isolated to the Kurokotan Campus, while the main campus began using English. By 1925 however, English was enforced throughout the entire university, with the exception of the Department of the Japanese Language.
