 note = {During the Meiji period, 24 Oyatoi Gaikokujin （hired foreigners） engineers from the UK
were employed by Japanese Government to construct and manage its railways. Here, focus is
placed on four railway engineers who received university education in the middle of the 19th
century at universities in the UK. This study introduces important documentation, such as
University Calendars and school records, which provide information concerning their curricula,
professors, and tuition fees.
　At the time, engineers in traditional UK universities, for instance Cambridge University
and Trinity College Dublin, were required to receive a solid liberal arts education. In contrast
at younger universities, for example in the Department of Applied Science of King’s College,
London, engineering students were provided theoretical and practical instruction.
　When considering the contributions they made to the development of Japan’s modern
railway system, the above information concerning their education is significant. Although
civil engineers wishing for membership in the Institution of Civil Engineers were required to
have grounding in the liberal arts, the Institution did not consider their school careers until
the beginning of the 20th century. The first Engineer-in-chief, Edmund Morel, advised to the
Meiji government to establish the Kobu Daigakko （the Imperial College of Engineering）. But
there is no evidence of the four engineers’ contribution to the curriculum, partly because they
engaged in Japan very short period （24 months on average）, and three of them were in poor
health.},
