Komazawa University , abbreviated as 駒大 Komadai, is a private university in Setagaya, Tokyo, Japan. Its history starts in 1592, when a seminary was established to be a center of learning for the young monks of the Sōtō sect, one of the two main Zen Buddhist traditions in Japan. The seminary evolved into a modern school in the late 19th century, and became a university in 1925.
