日治時期是臺灣水產教育的發軔期，開創臺灣教育的新紀元，培養不少近代臺灣從事海洋發展的先驅，成為戰後初期臺灣水產界的中堅人物。本文旨在究明日治時期臺灣水產學校建立之實況，尤其以當時水產學校的師資為焦點，分析其主要來源，以及專業經歷和表現，藉期瞭解日治時期臺灣水產教育師資之素質，以及教學研究之特色。據初步探討結果可知，1922-1945年間臺灣先後有7所水產學校成立，其師資結構和素質實與日本國內相似，而別具特色。1930年代前後起，水產補習學校師資即以北海道帝大水產專門部畢業生為主體，顯示臺灣水產學校之師資素質頗為整齊，札幌系亦在臺灣的水產教育機關位居主導地位和角色。多數教師任教臺灣各水產學校之前已有豐富的專業經歷和表現，可說頗能以實務經驗用之於教學工作。其一方面編寫適合臺灣需要的教材以教學，或帶領學生前往各水產試驗機關、水產會社、水產市場等進行見習和實習；另一方面經常接受總督府委託，從事臺灣水產的試驗、調查及研究工作，並隨時發表其調查研究成果，可說試驗研究與教學密切結合，頗能教學相長。

Fisheries education in Taiwan dated from the Japanese colonial period, which laid the foundation for the development of fisheries research and expertise in post-war Taiwan. In order to evaluate the performance of fisheries education in colonial Taiwan, this paper focuses on the quality of the teaching faculty at the seven fishery training schools established during 1922-1945, including their academic backgrounds and teaching practices. The preliminary analysis shows that the organization and selection of the fisheries teachers were similar to those of the Japan proper. From the 19308 to 1945, the majority of the teaching faculty of fisheries education in Taiwan originated from the alumni of Hokkaido Imperial University in Japan. Before their coming to Taiwan, many of these teachers were professionals with rich work experience in various fishery industries. In Taiwan, they not only dedicated themselves to creating teaching materials in accord with local needs, but also integrated their teaching with field studies to fisheries research institutions, companies and markets. In addition, the fisheries teaching faculty often worked for research projects commissioned by the Taiwan Government-General. Thus, their contribution to fisheries education was both research-oriented and pioneering.
