Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (東京農工大学 Tōkyō Nōkō Daigaku?), nicknamed "Nōkōdai," is a national university of Japan located in the cities of Fuchū and Koganei, Tokyo. It was established in 1949. Although the names are similar, Nōkōdai is not the same as Tokyo University of Agriculture (東京農業大学 Tōkyō Nōgyō Daigaku?) (Tōkyō Nōdai).
The undergraduate organization of the university has two faculties: Agriculture and Engineering. The university also awards master's and doctoral degrees in those fields, and in Bio-Applications and Systems Engineering.
Japan Prize-winner Akira Endo was a professor at Nōkōdai from 1979 to 1997.
