Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo Tech / Titech) was a national research university in Tokyo, Japan, ranked #76 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. In October 2024 it merged with Tokyo Medical and Dental University to form the Institute of Science Tokyo (Science Tokyo), and its public web presence now lives primarily at isct.ac.jp while legacy titech.ac.jp services remain online. Its public, machine-readable developer footprint is limited: the most clearly documented programmatic interface is the T2R2 (Science Tokyo / Tokyo Tech Research Repository) OAI-PMH metadata harvesting endpoint. Identity is federated through GakuNin using Shibboleth/SAML rather than a public OAuth/OpenID Connect API. No official institution-wide REST developer portal or open-data API was found.
