This paper clarifies the process of the establishment of this predecessor of the University of Tokyo and analyzes the ideas of its engineering education. Particularly, we focus on the education at Shogei-gakko, one of the engineering school at Kaisei-gakko, in comparing the curriculum with two French engineering school, the Ecole Polytechnique and the Ecole Centrale des Arts et manufactures, actual Ecole Centrale de Paris, to define the nature.
