Kogakuin University (工学院大学, Kōgakuin daigaku) is a private university in Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan. Its predecessor was named "Koshu Gakko" (工手学校) and was one of the oldest private engineering schools in Japan.
History
Koshu Gakko (工手学校, lit. technicians school) was founded in 1887 by educator, politician, and president of Tokyo Imperial University, Koki Watanabe, president of Imperial College of Engineering, Furuichi Kōi and professors of Tokyo Imperial University including Tatsuno Kingo.
The Koshu Gakko was an evening school. It had civil, mechanical, electric, architecture, ship building, mining, metallurgical, and chemical engineering courses when it was established.
