HANDBOOK OF INFORMATION

FOR - '* -

INDIAN STUDENTS. -M

RELATING TO

University and Professional Studies, &c., in the
United Kingdom.

Issued by the Committee of the National Indian Association, in
conjunction with the Advisory Committee, India Office.

ADVICE TO STUDENTS.

Committees have been constituted in each Presidency and
Province of India (excepting Burma and the North- West
Frontier Province) with the object of (i) furnishing informa-
tion and advice to Indian students who contemplate going to
England, (2) circulating in India to Colleges and other Institu-
tions the educational, financial and social information collected
by the Central Bureau of Information established in London
by the Secretary of State for India, and (3) communicating
with the Central Bureau on behalf of students before they
start. Students and their parents are therefore advised to
take advantage of the facilities thus offered and to commu-
nicate with the Secretary of the Provincial Committee before
finally settling upon a course of study in England.

Much time is often lost in England if students have not
decided on the profession they are to follow, before leaving
India.

Students are advised to bring with them letters of intro-
duction, as there are many occasions when such letters will
be found useful ; and students who intend to join one of the
Inns of Court, especially, should bring letters of recommenda-
tion to Barristers of five years' standing in London. In every
case testimonials of good character should be procured from
principals or professors of colleges or other educational
authorities.

Several Universities and other educational institutions

require from applicants for admission a birth certificate.
Many Indian students in England have been put to great
inconvenience for lack of such a certificate, or a corresponding
document duly attested by a magistrate or district officer.

It is important that students who have passed any
examinations of an Indian University should bring their
certificates : with them; or, if they proceed to England after
passing an examination, but before receiving the certificate,
they should bring a letter from the University, or such other
evidence as they can procure of having passed the examina-
tion.

The following Resolution of the Government of India
explains that Indian students proceeding to England should
not fail to apply in India for a Certificate of Identity, as such
a Certificate is likely to prove very useful to them in many
ways.

" RESOLUTION. The Secretary of State for India has
brought to the notice of the Government of India that it not
infrequently happens that natives of India, students and
others, who have proceeded to England, desire to obtain
passports to enable them to travel to foreign countries in
which the possession of a passport is necessary or desirable,
and that difficulty often arises from a want of evidence to
show that the applicant is a British subject and therefore
entitled to a passport. Appeals for assistance are also fre-
quently addressed to his Lordship by destitute Indians who
desire to return to their country, and by students who, owing
to embarrassed circumstances, are unable to complete their
course of education.

" In order to enable the Secretary of State to deal with
such cases satisfactorily, the Governor-General in Council has
decided that it is necessary to press upon Indian students and
others visiting England the desirability of providing them-
selves before their departure from India an authoritative
Certificate of Identity (in the form appended to this Resolu-
tion) signed by the head of a District (in a Presidency town
by the Commissioner of Police), in the case of residents of
British India, and by the Political Officer in that of residents
of native States. For a student the certificate should be
signed by the head of his last school or college and counter-
signed by the District Officer (in a Presidency town the
Commissioner of Police), or Political Officer, as the case may
be."

The want of such a Certificate has often proved disadvan-
tageous to an Indian Student by involving the delay of corres-

pondence with India, and other inconveniences. The re-
quired form is easily obtainable in India.

A student should have passed some University Examina-
tion in India, beyond mere Matriculation, before coming to this
country. He will thus be ready at once to take advantage of
the opportunity for professional study here.

Those intending to enter either of the Universities of
Oxford or Cambridge are strongly recommended to delay their
departure from India until they have passed the examinations
in an Indian University that are accepted by Oxford and Cam-
bridge in lieu of Responsions or the Previous, or until they have
learned enough Latin to enable them to pass either of these
Preliminary Examinations immediately on their arrival in
England. Much money and valuable time are often wasted
by Indian students who have to spend the first year or more
of their residence at Oxford or Cambridge in preparing for
these elementary examinations to the neglect of more serious
studies.

Students wishing to enter the Universities of either
Oxford or Cambridge, and unable to present certificates that
exempt them from the Previous or Responsions may take up
either (a) Arabic or Sanskrit, or (b) Latin. Students at
Cambridge, unless they possess a knowledge of either Sanskrit
or Arabic equal to that required for the B.A. examination
of an Indian University, are advised not to take either of
these languages, as only one opportunity will be given them
of appearing in these languages. If Latin is chosen, and the
student is unable to study it in India, he is advised to arrive
in England in the December of the year preceding the October
in which he will commence residence, so that he may pass
the University Entrance Examination in September. It
should be pointed out that a knowledge of Latin is of great
value to students of history and law.

Students intending to enter the University of Oxford or
Cambridge should apply for admission to a College at least one
year before the term in which they propose to commence resi-
dence. The great increase of the number of the students at
these two Universities in recent years, and the limited accom-
modation available for them, expose those who apply late to
the risk of disappointment. Many English parents who wish
their sons to enter a particular College send in an application
as early as two years before the first term of residence. The
Tutors of Colleges generally give preference to early appli-
cations.

The ideas prevalent in some parts that it is impossible for

a vegetarian to carry out his form of diet in England, and that
owing to the colder climate the drinking of alcohol is necessary
for the preservation of health, are quite fallacious.

Indian students must not expect to be able to maintain
themselves in any degree by means of teaching Eastern lan-
guages, or any other subjects during their stay in England.

Students ought to bring with them from India at least
20 or 30 in cash (after paying the expenses of the voyage) for
clothes and other necessaries required on arrival in England.
They should, if possible, keep throughout their stay a deposit
of not less than 30 in the bank to meet cases of accidental
delay (which frequently occur in the transmission of remit-
tances), or emergencies such as illness, or circumstances
necessitating an immediate return to India.

In addition to College and Class Fees, the student has to
spend a considerable sum (in regard to the I.C.S. 30 or 40)
on the purchase of books relating to his various studies.

The cost of education in England varies considerably with
the University, the social milieu and manner of life of the
student, his experience of the world and of the use of money,
and the course of study he pursues. A student at Oxford or
Cambridge who wishes to take advantage of the social ameni-
ties of these Universities requires 300 a year ; this sum will
cover also the expenses of the vacation. Students of retired
habits may manage to live on 250, while Non-Collegiate
students can live on somewhat less, but these smaller allow-
ances do not allow of students joining in the characteristic
life of these Universities.

A Student may, with economy, live in London on from
120 to 150 a year. This sum is independent of educational
and professional tuition, and only includes necessary expenses.
In Edinburgh and most other cities of Great Britain the
expenses of living are less than in London.

The cost of board and lodging for a student in London
depends on the kind of accommodation, and on the locality.
There are boarding-houses, where all have meals together at
fixed hours, at which the cost is from i 5s. to 2 2s. a week
(for board and lodging). Or a student having an allowance of
200 a year may live with a family, in which case he can gain
better acquaintance with English life and habits.

If a student should not be met on landing, the ship's
agents will look after his baggage, and, if he comes all the
way by sea, he can take the train with the other passengers
from the Docks to Fenchurch Street Station, where a cab
can be taken, in which he can drive to his destination. Arrange-

merits are equally easy if he arrives at Charing Cross or Victoria
Station from Marseilles. It is most important that he should
inform some friend in London, by letter or telegram, of the
date of his expected arrival. Those who have no friends
to meet them and make arrangements for their board and
lodging can apply to the Hon. Secretary of the National Indian
Association, 168, Kensington Park Road, London, W., or the
Educational Adviser to Indian Students, India Office, London,
S.W.

LEGAL STUDY.

THE BAR.
INNS OF COURT.

THERE are four Inns of Court namely, the Inner Temple, the
Middle Temple, Lincoln's Inn, and Gray's Inn which have
the power of calling men to the Bar.

ADMISSION OF STUDENTS.

Every person not otherwise disqualified who has passed an
Entrance Examination at any University within the British
Dominions, or the Examination for the Indian Civil Service,
etc., is entitled to be admitted as a Student at one of the four
Inns of Court, without passing a preliminary Examination.

Other applicants for admission must pass an Examination
in the English and Latin languages, and English History.
But Indian candidates can obtain an exemption from the
Examination in Latin on applying for the same.

Proficiency in English is tested by the Candidates' answers
in History, the leading outlines of which only are required.

Preliminary Examinations are held in the week preceding
each term, and every succeeding week during term.

A Declaration in a certain form must be made on applica-
tion for admission as a Student, and the applicant must
obtain two separate Certificates, each to be signed by a Barrister
in England of five years' standing, stating that he is believed to
be a proper person to be called to the Bar.

CALL TO THE BAR.

Every student must be twenty- one years of age before
being called to the Bar.

The Student must keep twelve terms before he can be
called to the Bar, unless any term or terms (not exceeding two)
have been dispensed with under special circumstances by the
Benchers of the Inn. There are four terms a year, and a term

is kept by attending (without the necessity of eating) six, or
in the case of a member of a British or Irish University, three
dinners in the Hall of the Inn. The terms are as follows :
Michaelmas term, November 2 25 ; Hilary term, January
ii 31 ; Easter term, four weeks, commencing the Tuesday
after Easter Tuesday ; Trinity term, three weeks, commencing
the Tuesday after Whit Tuesday. It is not necessary to keep
all the terms consecutively. A saving of about four months'
residence in England can be effected by those who are admitted
in November and who keep the Michaelmas term.

The Student must have passed, to the satisfaction of the
Council of Legal Education, a Public Examination for the
purpose of ascertaining his fitness to be called to the Bar, and
nave obtained from the Council a Certificate of having passed
such Examination.

Four such Examinations are held each year, one shortly
before each term.

The Bar Examination consists of two parts : PART I.
i. Roman Law and Jurisprudence and International Law,
Public and Private (Conflict of Laws). 2. Constitutional Law
(English and Colonial) and Legal History. 3 (A). Criminal
Law and Procedure. 3 (B). Real Property and Conveyancing,
or Hindu and Mahomedan Law, or Roman-Dutch Law,
PART II. FINAL EXAMINATION. (A) Common Law. (B)
Equity, (c) Law of Evidence and Civil Procedure. (D) A
General Paper on all the above subjects.

No Student will receive a Certificate of fitness for Call to
the Bar unless he passes a satisfactory Examination in the
above subjects.

A Student may present himself for Examination in all or
any of the Subjects i, 2, 3 (A) and 3 (B) at any time after admis-
sion. Without the special leave of the Council no student
shall present himself at the Final Examination unless he has
kept six terms.

The Council accept as an equivalent for the Examination
in Roman Law a Degree granted by any University within the
British Dominions, for which the qualifying Examination
included Roman Law ; or a Certificate that any Student has
passed any such Examinations.

FEES.

The fees connected with a Call to the Bar amount to nearly
150 ; but the sum of 90 must be paid at admission, and
the remainder at the date of call. At the Inner Temple an.
extra deposit of 50 is required.

The fees of the various Inns are shown in detail below :

admitted to the Bar.

The Indian High Courts require, before an Indian Barrister
can be enrolled, that he should present a certificate of moral
character, signed in England by a Judge or by two Barristers
of over five years' standing.

Many Barristers undertake to give private tuition in pre-
paring for the Examinations, the fees varying with the amount
of tuition required.

respects duly qualified. Should any of the selected Candi-
dates become disqualified, the Secretary of State for India
will determine whether the vacancy thus created shall be
filled up or not. In the former case, the Candidate next in

order of merit, and in other respects duly qualified, shall be
deemed to be a selected Candidate.

In this Examination, as in the Open Competition, the merit of
the Candidates examined will be estimated by marks (which

and he will be required to provide himself with uniform.

11. Candidates will be required to conform to such rules
of discipline as may from time to time be laid down.

12. At the conclusion of the course, Candidates, will be
required to pass an examination in the subjects taught during
the course of instruction. A lieutenant who, within a reason-
able period before the date at which he would otherwise sail
for India, furnishes proof of his election to a resident appoint-
ment at a recognised civil hospital, may be seconded for a
period not exceeding one year from the date on which he takes

ment they will be allowed a choice according to their positions
on the list between the following civil areas : Madras and Burma,
Bombay with Aden ; Upper Provinces (United Provinces,
Punjab and Central Provinces) ; Lower Provinces (Bengal and
Eastern Bengal and Assam). An officer transferred to civil
employment, though ordinarily employed within the area of

Tiis choice, will remain liable to employment elsewhere if the
exigencies of the service require it.

Examinations for admission to the Service usually take
place twice in the year i.e., in January and July.

Candidates will be supplied, on application, with copies
of the papers set at the last examination preceding i

INDIAN PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT.
APPOINTMENT OF ASSISTANT ENGINEERS.

Natives of India are eligible under the regulations issued
from year to year by the Secretary of State, for appointments
in the Public Works Department made in England, provided
that the total number of Indians so nominated shall not in
any one year exceed 10 per cent, of the total number of
Engineers appointed.

Appointments are made with the advice of a Selection
Committee, including at least one eminent representative of
the Engineering profession.

Candidates must have attained the age of 21 and not
attained the age of 24 years on the ist July of the year of
appointment, and must be of good moral character and sound
physique.

Candidates must have obtained a Degree in Engineering
in one of the British Universities, or such diploma or other
distinction as may, in the opinion of the Selection Committee,
be equivalent to such a degree.

It is essential that a candidate should have had some
experience as assistant in the preparation of the designs for, or
in the execution of, some engineering work of importance.

After being provisionally nominated by the Selection
Committee, he will be required, before final appointment by
the Secretary of State in Council, to appear before the Medical
Board at the India Office for Examination as to his physical
fitness for service in India.

Candidates will also be required, before final appoint-
ment, to satisfy the Secretary of State in such manner as he
may determine, of their ability to ride.

The subjects which are held to be of most importance for
the Public Works Service are :

Pure Mathematics, including a knowledge of the differen-
tial and integral calculus ; Applied Mathematics, Geometrical
and Engineering Drawing, Surveying and Geodesy, Strength of
Materials and Theory of Structures, Hydraulics, Heat Engines,
Materials used in Construction, Building Construction, com-

prising Wood and Metal Work, Limes and Cements, and
Building with Stone, Brick, and Concrete ; knowledge of the
Principles of Road-making, Waterworks, Sanitary and
Railway Engineering (important).

Candidates should also have had some workshop training.

INDIAN FOREST SERVICE.

Candidates applying for appointment as Probationers
must be natural-born British subjects, and must be under
23 years of age, unmarried, of good physique and of good
character.

Probationers are appointed by the Secretary of State,
on the advice of a Selection Committee. Candidates must
bring evidence, for the consideration of the Selection Com-
mittee, to show that they have passed with honours in a
public examination for a degree in some branch of Natural
Science, held by a University in Great Britain or Ireland,
and that they possess a knowledge of Mathematics up to
and including Plane Trigonometry. Special consideration will
be given to candidates who possess a Diploma in Forestry
granted by a British University.

In case the number of such candidates is not sufficient
to fill the number of appointments, candidates will be nomin-
ated who bring evidence to show that they have received a
good general education (including English, Mathematics,
Latin, and either German or French) and have a good know-
ledge of Chemistry and Mechanics and Physics. The pro-
duction of school certificates, or certificates that the can-
didate has passed the Matriculation Examination of a Univer-
sity in the subjects named, will be sufficient to satisfy the
requirements of this clause. Such candidates must not be
less than 19 years of age.

Should there be more qualified candidates than vacancies
to be filled, the final selection may be made by competitive
examination.

In the Medical Examination particular stress is laid
on good vision and hearing.

The period of probation for Probationers who have
passed with Honours in Natural Science will be two years ;
for those who have obtained a Diploma in Forestry two
years or less ; for others about three years. Probationers
will be required to undergo a special course of study at Oxford,
to become members of the University and to obtain the
Diploma of Forestry of that University. During vacations

they will receive practical instruction in British or Con-
tinental forests.

Probationers will be required to defray expenses while
at Oxford, and on practical instruction in Britain or on the
Continent, with the exception of fees payable to local forest
officers. The Secretary of State makes a total allowance
to each probationer of 240, subject to satisfactory progress
and to security to refund the payments in case he does not
join the Indian Forest Service.

Successful probationers are appointed Assistant Con-
servators in the Indian Forest Department at Rs. 380 a
month. They are required to be able to ride.

For further information apply to the India Office for a
copy of the Regulations.

AGRICULTURE, &c.

Instruction in Agricultural and Horticultural subjects,
dairy farming, &c., is given by a large number of institutions.

CAMBRIDGE.

The course at Cambridge is particularly suitable from
the scientific point of view for students who have had a

Erevious science training not lower than the B.Sc. of Bom-
ay. The fees (which depend upon the particular College
which the Student wishes to join) vary from 150 to 200 per
annum. For students who do not join the University and
are willing to live plainly, it is officially stated that the cost
need not exceed 60, which includes 24 weeks' board and
residence with fees.

Two courses of study are open to the Student of Agri-
culture (i) a course leading up to the B.A. degree, extending
over three years ; (2) a course leading up to the Diploma in
Agriculture, extending over a fourth year, or, in certain cir-
cumstances, a degree and a diploma may be taken in three
years. The full course for the diploma alone extends over
two years.

A somewhat less expensive education is given at

UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF WALES, ABERYSTWYTH.
The degree courses, qualifying for the degree of B.Sc.
of the University of Wales, extend over three years (nine
terms). The diploma course qualifying for the College
diploma in Agriculture, also extends over three years, but
the students attend classes only during the winter months
(making six terms in all) and the remainder of the time (two

periods of 24 weeks each) must be devoted to practical work
on an approved farm under the supervision of the lecturer.

An advanced course in agricultural chemistry, consisting
mainly of practical work, is provided for those who wish to
make a special study of the subject after having taken the
degree or diploma.

External work includes field demonstrations, dairying,,
and work on the experimental farm in connection with the
College.

Similar courses are given at the University of Leeds,
the University College of North Wales, Bangor, and the
Armstrong College, Newcastle.

Besides these Universities, there are several Agricultural
Colleges which give a Diploma in Agriculture to students
who have attended courses extending over two or three years.

THE ROYAL AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, CIRENCESTER,

provides an education well suited to the needs of Indian
students. The object of this Institution is, by means of a
combination of College and Farm, to provide such a course
of special instruction, both scientific and practical, as shall
be most useful to an intending Agriculturist, and suitable
to any of the following classes : (i) Land Owners ; (2)
Farmers and Occupiers of Land ; (3) Land Agents, Surveyors,
&c. ; (4) Administrators and Inspectors ; (5) Professors,
Lecturers, and Teachers of Agriculture ; (6) Intending
Colonists, &c., &c.

The Workshops, Veterinary Hospital, Museum, Labora-
tory, together with the comprehensive teaching on Agri-
culture, Stock, Dairying, &c., &c., afford an exceptionally
valuable training for intending Colonists.

In-students all lodge and board in the College. They
are admitted at the ages of about 17 to 21 years, or upwards.
Out-students are admitted at 20 or 21 years of age and
upwards. They lodge and board in the town, in houses
licensed by the College.

Fees and Payments, payable terminally in advance :
In-students, 45 per term ; Out-students, 25 per term.
Entrance for Out-students, 5.

The ordinary course occupies two years, of three terms
each ; and that for the Diploma, two years and one or two
extra terms. There is a special one year's course of three
terms, better taken in four terms, completing Agriculture,
Veterinary or Chemistry, Surveying, Levelling, &c., with

portions of Estate Management, Forestry, &c. At least
three subjects must be taken.

There is no entrance examination. A good general
education is the best preparation for entering the College.

A similar institution, at which the expenses of residence
are somewhat less, is

HARPER ADAMS AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, NEWPORT, SALOP.

The courses of instruction provided at the College are :
(i) the Diploma course, extending over two j^ears and covering
the ground of the National Diploma in Agriculture examina-
tions, and (2) the Certificate course, extending over two years,
of a less advanced character, and intended to provide a
training in practical Agriculture, and (3) short courses of
eight weeks during the autumn and spring terms.

External work includes field demonstrations, dairying,
and work on the College farm.

Other Institutions of much the same character are
University College, Reading ; the Midland Agricultural
and Dairy College, Kingston; the College of Agriculture
and Horticulture, Holmes Chapel ; the Agricultural and
Horticultural College, Uckfield ; and the Agricultural Col-
lege, Aspatria. Cumberland.

UNIVERSITIES.

THE UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD.

DEGREES.

The University of Oxford grants Degrees in Five Faculties
--viz., in Arts, Music, Law, Medicine (including the Sub-
Faculty of Surgery), and Divinity ; and also Degrees in Litera-
ture and Diplomas in other subjects. The attainment of a
Degree in Arts is essential before entering either of the two
Faculties of Law and Medicine.

The following are the main conditions to attainment of the
Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) Degree :

RESIDENCE AND MATRICULATION.

The Academical year is divided into four terms Michael-
mas Term, the first of the Academical year, beginning about
the middle of October ; Hilary (or Lent) Term, beginning about
the middle of January ; Easter and Trinity Terms (which are
practically one), beginning about the middle of April. Terms
occupy about half the year. Students, except affiliated
Students and Members of certain Universities (as to which see
later) must keep twelve Terms, not necessarily consecutive,
by residence, before attaining the Degree of Bachelor of Arts.

Residence at Oxford during the Vacation is only allowed by
special permission.

Anyone who wishes to be matriculated as a Member of
the University must first be admitted either as a Member of a
College or Hall, or as a Non-Collegiate Student. Those
who join a College are ordinarily required to pass an entrance
examination conducted by the College authorities. The
nature of the Examination varies ; but in all cases the Student
must satisfy the College that he is likely, within a reasonable
period, to pass Responsions. N on- Collegiate Students are
also required to pass an Examination.

Anyone whose name has been placed on the books of a
College or Hall, or of the Delegacy of Non-Collegiate Students,
is eligible to be presented to the Vice-Chancellor for formal
enrolment on the Register of the University. This enrolment
is Matriculation. There is no University Examination for
Matriculation.

EXAMINATIONS.

Examinations in Arts, more usually called " Schools," are
sharply divided into Pass and Honours Examinations. In the
former there is but one standard ; in the latter the names of
Candidates who satisfy the Examiners are distributed into
three or four Classes, according to merit.

The attainment of the B.A. Degree, as above stated, is a
condition precedent to the attainment of degrees in Medicine,
Divinity, and, in ordinary cases, Law. A large amount of
choice is allowed in regard to the subjects, the time and the
order of the several Examinations required. In ordinary
cases, the following Examinations suffice :

i. Responsions. It is now possible to pass this Examina-
tion before going into residence. In many Colleges that is
compulsory. But, in any case, those who intend to try for
Honours should be prepared to pass Responsions in their first
Term. The subjects for Responsions are : (i) Stated subjects ;
(2) Additional subjects. The stated subjects are : Arithmetic,
Algebra or Geometry, Greek and Latin Grammar, Translation,
from English into Latin Prose, Greek and Latin authors,
chosen from a prescribed list.

The Additional Subjects are only required from those
Candidates who wish to obtain exemption from the Classical
part of the second Examination. They are, a Greek or Latin,
French, German, or Italian author, Bacon's " Novum Organ-
um," Book L, and the Elements of Logic. One subject only is
required.

22.

Indian Candidates are allowed to offer in Responsions as
substitutes for Greek and Latin (A) English for one of these
languages, (B) either Sanskrit, Arabic, Persian or Pali for
the other.

2. The Examination in Holy Scripture or in a substituted
book. An Indian student may substitute any one of certain
specified books in Sanskrit, Arabic, Pali, or English.

3. An Intermediate Examination. This may be either (A)
a Pass Examination in Latin, Greek and either Elementary
Mathematics or Logic; or (B) an Honour Examination in
Latin and Greek ; or (c) an Honour Examination in Mathe-
matics ; or (D) Jurisprudence Preliminary Examination ; or
(E) the Natural Science Preliminary Examinations.

Of these, (D) and (E) are for those only who have passed
in an Additional Subject at Responsions, and intend to take
Honours in a Final Honour School. An Indian Student who
takes (A) may substitute for Greek and Latin (j) English for
one of these languages, (2) either Sanskrit, Arabic, Persian or
Pali for the other.

4. A Final Examination. This may be either the Pass
School of the Second Public Examination, or one of nine
Honour Schools.

The Pass School subjects are arranged in five groups,
a, b, c, d, e ; out of which Candidates must satisfy the
Examiners in three subjects, not more than two subjects being
taken from any one group, (a) contains Classical subjects (in-
cluding Sanskrit, Pali and Persian) ; (b) contains Modern
subjects one of which is Political Economy, and another a
Branch of Legal Study, either the Principles of the English
Law of Contracts, or the " Institutes " of Justinian, or Mayne's
" Treatise on Hindu Law and Usage," or Military Law. c,
Geometry, Mechanics, &c. d, Elements of Religious Know-
ledge, e, Military subjects.

The nine Final Honour Schools are those of Literae Human-
iores, Mathematics, Natural Science, Jurisprudence, Modern
History, Theology, Oriental Studies (including Sanskrit, Per-
sian, or Arabic, History of India, and one special subject, legal
or philological), English Language and Literature, and Modern
Languages.

It is not advisable for an Indian Student to enter at Oxford
until he has passed, or is ready to pass, Responsions. If he
knows Sanskrit when he leaves India, he can, with diligence,
learn enough Latin to pass Responsions in six months.

An Indian Candidate may obtain a degree without being
required to learn either Greek or Latin.

The Examination for the Degree of Bachelor of Civil Law

includes the Indian Penal Code, and the Hindu and Muham-
madan Law of the Family, Family Property, and Inheritance.
As stated above, ordinary Candidates cannot attain this Degree
unless they have first been admitted to the B.A. Degree.

But a Student who has attained the age of 21 years, and
is a Graduate in Arts (or in Philosophy, or in Science) of some
other University, may, if he obtains the permission of the
Board of the Faculty of Law, commence reading at once for
theB.C.L. Examination, and take that Examination at the end
of either his second or his third year. If he obtains Honours in
the Examination, he may then proceed to the degree of B.C.L.
provided he has kept residence for eight Terms (two years) .

INDIAN CIVIL SERVICE CANDIDATES. The Open Com-
petitive Examination embraces nearly all the subjects of the
Honour Schools of the University of Oxford, and anyone who
is not twenty years of age on the ist of August of the year in
which he matriculates (in October) may give four years to an
Honour Course, and immediately after taking his degree, enter
for the Competitive Examination. But, as some special pre-
paration at a tutor's for the Competitive Examination is often
desirable, the University curriculum can be abridged so as to
allow a year for special training.

BODEN SANSKRIT SCHOLARSHIPS. These are four in num-
ber, and one is available every Hilary Term, after an Examina-
tion in Sanskrit. The emoluments are 50 per annum for four
years. Candidates must be matriculated members of a College
or Hall, who on the day of election have not exceeded their
twenty-fifth year, subject to certain qualifications regarding
their study of Sanskrit.

THE INDIAN INSTITUTE. The main object of this Institute,
founded in 1883, is to give effective teaching and to form a
centre of interest in all subjects that relate to India. The
Institute is intended to assist the Selected Candidate for the
Indian Civil Service, and all Indian Students who matriculate
or merely reside at Oxford. It also serves as a meeting-place
for Students of all countries who are engaged in Oriental re-
search. It includes Lecture-rooms, a Reading-room, a
Library, and a Museum.

EXPENSES.

I. PAYMENT TO THE UNIVERSITY.
Fee for Matriculation . . . . 3 10 o
Examinations, about . . 800
Degree of Bachelor of Arts 7 10 o

'19 o o

II. COST OF INSTRUCTION.

The tuition fees vary somewhat at the different Colleges T
but are usually under 25 annually. For Non-Collegiate
Students the tuition fees are 6 6s. annually. Students from
India often require further tuition than the Colleges provide.
In such cases, the Student should, before selecting a tutor,
ask the advice of his College tutor, or of the Censor of Non-
Collegiate Students. The fee for a private tutor is 20 guineas
for eight weeks for an hour's lecture on six days of the week,
or 10 guineas for the same on three days.

III. LIVING EXPENSES.

The cost of living at Oxford varies so largely with the
means, tastes, and moral courage of a Student, that it is not
possible to lay down many general propositions respecting it.
There are certain inevitable expenses, such as board and lodg-
ing, which vary in different Colleges, and in all are greater than
in the case of Non-Collegiate Students ; others, which are
desirable but voluntary, as subscriptions to Clubs and Socie-
ties ; others, as tradesmen's bills, which are almost wholly
within a Student's powers to fix for himself. Clothes, books,
railway fares, and the cost of living in the vacations have to
be taken into account. In order to obtain the collateral
advantages of University life, a Student ought to have 250
or 300 a year.

The expenses connected with rooms, rent, attendance,
meals, &c., are nearly the same at Oxford as at Cambridge.

Members of the Universities of Calcutta, Bombay,
Madras, the Punjab, and Allahabad, who have fulfilled certain
conditions there, are entitled to certain privileges at Oxford.
If they have completed a course of two years, and have
passed the Entrance (or Matriculation) and the First Arts
(or Intermediate) Examinations they are classed as " Junior "
Indian Students. If they have completed a course of three
years and have obtained Honours of a sufficient standard in
the Final (B.A. or M.A.) Examination they are classed as
" Senior " Indian Students.* The standard of Honours
required has been laid down for each of the five Universities
separately, and a Student must be careful to ascertain what
it is in his case. A Junior Indian Student can reckon his
first Term of Residence as the fifth from his Matriculation,
i.e., he is granted one year's standing. He is not required to
pass Responsions or in an Additional subject. He can take
the degree of B.A. after a residence of eight Terms, i.e., two
Academical years, if he has passed the Second Public Exami-
nation and has obtained Honours in either the First or Second

Public Examination. If he has only taken a Pass in both
these Examinations, he cannot take his Degree till he has
resided Twelve Terms.

The privileges and status of a Senior Indian Student are
as follows : He can count his First Term of residence as the
fifth from his Matriculation. He is not required to pass
Responsions, the First Public Examination, or any Pre-
liminary of the Second Public Examination. If he obtains
Honours in any Final School, he can take his B.A. Degree
after eight Terms' residence.

(Very full particulars on all subjects connected with the
University can be obtained from the " Students' Handbook,"
of which revised editions are frequently issued by the Claren-
don Press, Oxford. Price as. 6d. or 2s. gd. post free.)

UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE.

The University of Cambridge confers Degrees on Students
in Arts (including Mathematics, Classics, Moral Sciences,
Natural Sciences, Theology, History, Oriental Languages,
Mediaeval and Modern Languages, Mechanical Sciences, and

Economics), also in Divinity, Law, Medicine and Surgery, and
Music. It also confers Diplomas in Geography, Mining,
Tropical Medicine, Public Health, Education, and Agricultural
Science.

Several of the Triposes are divided into two parts, and a
Degree can in some cases be obtained by passing the first part
only. In Mathematics both parts must be passed for a Degree,
or Part I. of Mathematics and Part II. of Natural Science may
be taken. Similarly a degree may be obtained by taking two
parts of two different Triposes ; e.g., Part I. of History, and
Part II. of Law.

The following are the main conditions for obtaining the
Degree of Bachelor of Arts, under the three heads of A,
Residence ; B, Examination ; C, Regulations for Affiliated
Institutions ; D, Expenses.

A. RESIDENCE.

In order to obtain the B.A., or speaking generally, any
-other Degree, it is necessary to have resided in Cambridge as
a member of the University for the prescribed period. The
period of residence is measured by Terms i.e., divisions of the
year during which University business is carried on. There
are three Terms in each year, called respectively the Michael-
mas, the Lent, and the Easter Terms, which must include
collectively at least 227 days, and the Student in Arts must in
.general " keep " by residence at least nine of these Terms ; but
it is sufficient for this purpose to have resided during three
fourths of the Term, and the public lectures are generally
arranged to cover about that period or rather more, averaging
therefore from eight to nine weeks per Term, or about half
the year. Residence at the University out of Term time not
only does not count for the Degree, but is actually forbidden to
Students, unless it be by special permission, or in the house of
a parent or guardian. Permission is freely given, for certain
parts of the Vacation, to Students of good character who bona-
fide desire it for purposes of study. In the case of Students
coming from " affiliated" Colleges elsewhere, residence for two
years or more in such College is accepted as an equivalent for
the first three terms of University residence. During the Long
Vacation (in the months of July and August), it is usual to
allow a certain number of Students reading for Honours to re-
.side within the precincts of the College for a period of from
-six to seven weeks.

In order that the residence of a Student may be recog-
nised it is necessary for him to be " matriculated " i.e.,

2 7

formally enrolled as a member of the University ; and it is
usual, but not indispensable, to be admitted also as a member
of one of the seventeen Colleges which are represented as such
in the Government of the University. Such membership does-
not necessarily imply actual residence within the walls of the
College ; but those Collegiate Students who by choice or
necessity reside outside can only* do so in lodgings licensed
by the University, and are required to be present at dinner in
the College Hall, at such College Lectures as the tutor may
prescribe, and also, unless specially exempted as not being
members of the Church of England, at some of the services
at the College Chapel. The restraints on remaining out late
at night are the- same in -lodgings as in College, .the lodging-
house keeper being required to report the hour at which the-
Student comes in.

Those Students who do not belong to a regular College are
classed as Non-Collegiate, and are subject to the control of a
University officer, called the Censor. They must reside
either (i) with parents or guardians, or (2) in lodgings licensed
by the University, or (3) in a private hostel, recognised as
such by the University, and managed by a member of the
Senate.

Applications for admission in October should be sent to
the Tutor of a College in the preceding month of May.

B . EXAMINATIONS.

i. PASS.

The series of examinations which must be undergone by
a Student who simply desires to qualify for a B.A. Degree,
without aspiring to any honorary distinction, are as follows :

I. The Previous Examination, or Little-go, is divided
into three Parts, and is held four times a year. A student may-
take all three Parts together or separately. Failure in any one-
does not affect the other two parts. The Examination should,
if possible, be passed in the first term of residence. At many
Colleges, if it is not passed within a year after matriculation,
the Student is not allowed to remain at the University. The
subjects of the Previous Examination are :

PART I. (i) One Gospel in the original Greek or a Greek
classic. (2) One Latin classic. (3) One Greek classic. (4)
Unseen passages from some Latin author, the use of a dic-
tionary being allowed. (5) Latin and Greek accidence and
syntax.

But Indian Students may be examined in certain English
books instead of papers (i) and (3), and may write an English

essay instead of answering the questions on Greek Grammar
in paper (5).

PART II. (i) Paley's " Evidences of Christianity " ; or
as an alternative, a paper on Elementary Logic or on Elemen-
tary Heat and Chemistry. (2) Geometry. (3) Arithmetic.
(4) Elementary Algebra. (5) An English Essay on a subject
from a Standard English work.

PART III. A Student who desires to study for a Tripos
(Honours) is further required to pass the " Additional Sub-
jects " viz., (i) Mechanics with Elementary Trigonometry, or
(2) French, or (3) German.

II . The General Examination is held in J une and Decem-
ber, and consists of two parts, either of which is open to all
Students who are in their third Term of residence, having
^previously kept two Terms and passed the previous Examina-
tion. The subjects are at present :

PART I. One Latin and one Greek classic. Algebra, Ele-
mentary Statics with Elementary Trigonometry, and a (volun-
tary) Latin paper.

PART II. The Acts of the Apostles in the original Greek,
a portion of English History, an Historical Essay ; Elementary
Hydrostatics and Heat, and a (voluntary) paper on a play of
Shakespeare, or a work of Milton.

III. A " Special Examination/' open to all Students
who have entered on their ninth* Term at least, having pre-
viously kept eight Terms, and have passed their Previous and
General Examinations. When the Special Examination is
divided into two Parts (as is the case with most subjects),
Part I. is open to all Students who have entered on their Sixth
"Term at least, having previously kept five Terms. The sub-
ject of the Examination (under the existing regulations) may be
any of the following at the option of the student : Chemistry,
Classics, History, Law, Mathematics,Mechanism, and Applied
Science, Modern Languages, Physics, Political Economy,
"Theology, Botany, Geology, Logic, Physiology, and Zoology.
There are also Special Examinations in Agricultural Science,
A Diploma in that science is open to persons who are NOT
members of the University

IV. Or, in place of the General Examination followed
T3y a Special Examination, the candidate may qualify for the
Ordinary Degree by passing in two Special Examinations.

2. HONOURS.

Indian Students usually try to graduate in Honours. The
examinations for Honours are called Triposes, and the branches
of study for which there are separate Triposes are the follow-
ing : Mathematics ; Classics i.e., the Languages, Literature,
and History of Greece and Rome ; Moral Sciences ; Natural
Sciences ; Theology ; Law ; History ; Oriental Languages, of
which the subjects are Hebrew, Aramaic (Eastern and
Western), Arabic, Sanskrit and Persian ; Grammars of the
Semitic and Indo-European Languages ; and the Comparative
Mediaeval and Modern Languages, Mechanical Sciences, and
Economics. Some of these Triposes consist of a single Exam-
ination ; others are divided into Parts.

In each Tripos, or in the separate parts of each Tripos, the
candidates who are considered to deserve Honours are arranged
in classes according to merit, and in some cases the members
of each class are arranged in the like order. A place in any
class in the last or only part of any Tripos entitles to a B.A.
Degree, and a place in any class in both parts of the Law
Tripos, or in one part after taking honours in any other Tripos,
entitles the candidate also to the degree of Bachelor of Laws
(LL.B.) instead of or in addition to the B.A.

But even if a Tripos candidate fails to obtain a place in the
Class List, he may still be admitted to the B.A. degree without
further Examination, if the Examiners consider that he has
acquitted himself sufficiently well to deserve a degree without
Honours ; or for a lower standard of proficiency he may be
excused the General Examination, but required to pass one of
the Special Examinations for the ordinary degree. In addition
to these University Examinations, a Candidate for Honours,
who belongs to any College, is almost always required by the
College authorities to have his knowledge tested at intervals by
Examinations conducted under their supervision, or sometimes
by joint arrangement among several Colleges.

The Examination for the Law Tripos consists of two
Parts-
Part I. includes (i) General Jurisprudence ; (2) History
and General Principles of Roman Law ; (3) and (4) Institutes
of Gaius and Justinian ; and a portion of the Digest ; (5) Eng-
lish Constitutional Law and History ; (6) Public International
Law ; (7) Essays.

Part II. includes (i) and (2) The English Law of Real and
Personal Property ; (3) and (4) The English Law of Contract

and Torts; (5) English. Criminal Law and Procedure and
Evidence ; (6) Essays.

Candidates who pass in Part I. are excused from the Bar
Examination in Roman Law.

Students may keep their Terms at an Jnn of Court whilst
they are at College, so that" they can be called to the Bar at
the same time that they take their Degree, if they can afford
time for passing the Law Examination during their University
course.

A Student who obtains Honours in both parts of the Law
Tripos is entitled to the LL.B. (Bachelor of Laws) Degree.

C. GENERAL REGULATIONS FOR AFFILIATED INSTITUTIONS.

Any Student of an Affiliated Institution, who shall have
continued a member of it for such length of time, not less than
two years, and shall have attended such lectures, and passed
such Examinations, as may be required from time to time by
grace of the Senate, shall, if admitted as a member of the
University otherwise than as an Advanced Student, be entitled
to either or both of the following privileges, namely :

(i) To be exempted from all parts of the previous Exam-
ination ; (2) to reckon the first Term kept by residence as the
fourth Term of his residence, for the purposes of all provisions
respecting the standing of Candidates for Tripos Examinations
or for Degree Examinations in Medicine, Surgery, or Music, and
respecting the standing of candidates for Degrees.

UNIVERSITY OF CALCUTTA. Any Matriculated Student

D. EXPENSES.

The necessary or usual Expenses of University residence
. may be considered under the following heads :

I. FIXED PAYMENTS.
(Caution Money* . . . . 15 o o)

An Entrance Fee (which varies at

different Colleges), say . . . . 500

Fee for Previous Examination (2 parts) 2 10 o
,, Examinations for Ordinary Degreef

General . . . . . . 200

Special . . . . . . 300

,, B.A. or LL.B. Degree . . . . 700

Total cost of Ordinary Degree 19 10 o

* Trinity College requires also an additional deposit of 50.

t The fee on admission to the Examination in the Additional Subjects of the
Previous Examination is i 55., and to one or any number of Tripos Examination is
3, making the total cost of an Honour Degree 18 153.

II. COST OF INSTRUCTION.

Of the public lectures provided by the University, some
may be attended without any fee ; if any fee is charged, it is
either i is. or 2 2s. per Term. Students of Natural Sciences
have, in addition, Laboratory fees to pay ; these vary from
2 2s. to 6 6s. a term, according to the number of subjects
studied. Further instruction is provided by each College
for its own Students out of a fund provided by a payment
from each student to the College Tutor, which varies at the
different Colleges from 6 to S per Term. This sum also
covers the remuneration of the Tutor for the general super-
vision which he exercises over the Students.

If private tuition is required over and above the Univer-
sity and College Lectures, the scale of payment is fy per
Term (3 hours a week) ; 10 los. for the working part of
the Long Vacation i.e., about seven weeks during the
months of July and August.

III. RESIDENTIAL EXPENSES.

There are certain strictly necessary expenses for Under-
Graduates at Cambridge, as study, rent and College payments,
which amount to from 25 to 40 per Term, for those who
live in College. In addition to the above, allowance must be
made for books, groceries, and other goods supplied by trades-
men, as well as for pocket and travelling money and other
personal expenses. The expenses of Non-Collegiate Students
are rather less.

The expenses of a Student at Cambridge may be esti-
mated at from 130 to 180 a year ; but it is advisable that he
should have as much as 180 in order to gain the full benefit

of College life. As the vacations cover nearly half the year,,
it is desirable that an Indian Student studying at Cambridge
should have an allowance of from 270 to 300.

Students are recommended to become members of the
Boat and Cricket and other College Clubs, the Union Society r
etc. The subscriptions (exclusive of entrance fees), all taken
together, amount to 5 or 6 per annum.

INDIAN CIVIL SERVICE CANDIDATES. The subjects pre-
scribed for the Open Competitive Examination are all included
in one or other of the Cambridge Triposes. A Candidate for
the former may conveniently be preparing at the same time for
a Tripos, in the one, or two, subjects on which he intends to
rely PRINCIPALLY for the I.C.S., and for these principal sub-
jects the regular University lectures will be suitable, * As

present foreign Certificates, or Indian Certificates other
than Diplomas of Degrees granted by recognised Indian
Universities, from an Academical or other educational autho-
rity, which indicate that they have attained a standard,
primd facie, -equal to that of the Matriculation Examination,
may apply for Examination before the Board of Moderators
instead of at the Matriculation Examination. This Examina-
tion can only be. held at the University in London. The
Board will take, into account the Certification that the Can-
didate has presented, or any Examination that he has passed ;
but no Candidate will be accepted without viva-voce Examina-
tion. There.will.be no Syllabus, and the Board will apply
any test they may 'consider necessary in the case of any

Candidate ; it will not, however, be considered necessary
to adhere strictly to the list of subjects included in the Matri-
culation Examination. Special importance will be attached
to the degree of proficiency displayed by the Candidate
in the English Language. The Certificate for passing this
Examination will be accepted by the University in lieu of
the Matriculation Examination Certificate. There are no
partial exemptions from the Matriculation Examination.

Candidates for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts, or of

UNIVERSITY COLLEGE, LONDON.

By the University College Transfer Act (1905), University
College was on January ist, 1907, incorporated in the Univer-
sity of London.

This College is situated in Gower Street, W.C., near the
Gower Street Metropolitan Station. It is r on-resident.

The Session is divided into Three Terms, beginning early
in October.

The purpose of the College is to afford at a moderate ex-
pense the means of education in Literature, Science, and the
Fine Arts, and in the knowledge required for admission to the
medical and legal professions, and in particular for affording
the means of obtaining the education required for taking the
.Degrees now or hereafter granted by the University of London.

The curriculum of each Student must be settled after

consultation with the respective Professors, and must be
approved by the respective Faculties.

The College arranges for Undergraduates courses and for
Intermediate, Pass and Honour Courses in the Faculties of
Arts, Science, Medicine, Economics, Laws, and Engineering,
also for Post-graduate courses for M.A., D.Sc., etc., and for
Research work.

Both Men and Women Students are admitted as Students,
without previous Examination, to any class or classes they
may select.

The Secretary of State for India has acceded to a request
that Selected candidates for the Civil Service of India may
pass their probationary period at University College, residing
with their parents, or with some suitable person sanctioned by
the Council, on the understanding that such person will under-
take responsibility for the conduct of the Candidates who may
study at University College, and enforce rules of discipline
upon them.

There are Junior as well as Senior Classes of many sub-
jects ; and for all the scientific subjects there are museums and
laboratories where students work under the direction of the
Professors.

FEES. Preliminary Scientific Course, Part I., London
University, 26 guineas.

Preliminary Scientific Part II. and Intermediate Medi-
cine, 58 guineas if paid in one sum, 63 guineas if paid in two
instalments.

For the Medical Examination required by the Examining
Board in England, and by the Society of Apothecaries' First
Examination. Parts I., II., III., 21 guineas. First Examina-
tion, Part IV., and Second Examination, 58 guineas if paid in
one sum, 63 guineas if paid in two instalments.

The fees range from Two to Twelve Guineas the Session
for each Class.

The Faculty of Engineering, including the departments
of Mechanical, Electrical, Civil, and Municipal Engineering,
is intended to provide a systematic training in the applica-
tion of scientific principles to industrial purposes. The
education given in the Departments in this Faculty is not
intended to supersede such necessary practical training as
can only properly be acquired in the office, workshop, or
factory.

Students are, however, advised to pass the Matriculation
Examination of the University of London before entering the
College, in order that they may take the course for the B.Sc.

Engineering Degree or the B.A. Honours Architecture Degree,
Each of these Courses extends normally over three years from
Matriculation.

Curricula have been arranged for the different branches
of ENGINEERING ; unless there are strong reasons to the
contrary, it is advisable that one or other of these curricula
should be attended. But in all cases it is especially advisable
that the Student should consult one of the professors before
deciding what Classes to attend.

The curricula mentioned above include not only instruc-
tion in Applied Science, but also such preliminary instruction
in Pure Science (especially in Mathematics, Physics, and
Chemistry) as a Student ought to have before proceeding to
study its applications. The study of Modern languages is
not specially included in any of them, but the importance
of these subjects to the Student in this Department is ex-
ceedingly great, and it may therefore be often advisable
that some time should be given to them.

LAW CLASSES. The Course of Instruction in these Classes
is specially adapted for Students preparing for the LL.B,
Degree in the University of London, for certain of the Bar and
Inns of Court (Honours) Examinations, and for the Indian
Civil Service Examinations.

The subjects include Roman Law, Jurisprudence, Con-
stitutional Law and History, and Comparative Law.

THE INDIAN SCHOOL CLASSES are chiefly in aid of prepara-
tion for the Periodical Examinations of selected Candidates for
the Indian Civil Service. They include Indian Law, Sanskrit,
Arabic, Persian, and the chief Indian Vernaculars ; also His-
tory of India.

pean, such language may be accepted as a substitute for a
modern European language ; and Sanskrit or Arabic may be
accepted as an alternative for Latin or Greek. A Joint Board
of Examiners, which controls and supervises the preliminary
examinations, is appointed annually by the University
Courts of the four Scottish Universities, and the Board
sits for a year at each University in rotation. The Board
deals with applications for exemption from the whole or part
of the preliminary examinations on the ground of passes in
equivalent Examinations. Exemptions : Indian Students
who present evidence that they have passed examinations
which would admit them to Universities in India are exempted,
provided (i) that the evidence shows that they possess a
knowledge of English sufficient to follow the lectures with
profit ; (2) that before attending any Class in English, any
other Language, Mathematics or Natural Philosophy they
shall produce evidence of having passed the examination in
this subject on a certain standard (generally, the higher
standard) ; and (3) that candidates for degrees in Engineering
shall produce evidence of a knowledge of Mathematics equiva-
lent to the standard of Higher Mathematics in the Preliminary

Examination. The Academic year commences on October
ist.

THE UNIVERSITY OF BIRMINGHAM.

The University Session, or academic year, is divided into
three Terms, and commences in October.

The Classes and Laboratories of the University are open
to all who are sufficiently prepared to take advantage of the
instruction offered. Every person seeking admission as a
Student to a recognised course of instruction in preparation-
for a Diploma, Certificate, or other professional qualification,
must produce such testimonial or reference and pass such

4 6

general culture, who are not preparing for University Examina-
tion.

Degrees are conferred in Arts, Science (I. Engineering : (A)
Mechanical ; (B) Civil ; (c) Electrical. II. Metallurgy ; or
III. Mining), and Commerce.

Although the Classes in the University are open to all
Students who may wish to join them, students are strongly
recommended to pass some qualifying Examination and be
Matriculated before entering the University. It is only
Matriculated Students who can become undergraduates and
enjoy the privileges of Membership of the University and of
the Guild of Undergraduates, and are eligible to become
Candidates for Degrees in the University.

The following Examinations are accepted in lieu of the
Matriculation Examination :

i. The Previous Examination (Cambridge). 2. Respon-
sions (Oxford). 3. The Preliminary or Matriculation Examina-
tion of any recognised University.

Provided that Candidates who offer No. 3 have passed
at one Examination in all the subjects required by the regu-
lations for Matriculation.

Forms of application must be accompanied by a certificate
of good character from the last school attended, or from some
responsible person, and by the Matriculation Fee of 2.

Candidates must pass in five subjects at one Examination,
viz. : (i) English History and Literature ; (2) Mathe-
matics ; (3), (4), and (5), Three Subjects (of which one must
be a Language) chosen from the following list : (A) Latin,
(B) Greek, (c) French, (D) German, (E) Italian, (F) Spanish,
(G) Higher Mathematics, (H) Experimental Mechanics, (i)
Chemistry, (j) Geography, (K) Botany, (L) Animal Biology,
(M) Geometrical Drawing.

Candidates for the Bachelor's Degree in Pure Science, and
for the Bachelor's Degree in Arts, are required to have spent at
least three Sessions in attendance on courses of study in the
University after Matriculation, and in the case of Science to
pass two University Examinations, or in Art three Examina-
tions. If the Candidates before entrance to the University
have passed the Intermediate Examination (or an Examina-
tion recognised by the University as equivalent to that
Examination) , they will be allowed to sit for the Final Examina-
tion after two years' study ; but in no case will the degree
be conferred on such candidates until they have completed a
further year of study, after which they become eligible for the
Degree of Master of Science or Master of Arts.

Candidates may obtain the Degree of Bachelor of Science
in Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, or Electrical
Engineering, after attendance on prescribed courses of study
in the University extending over a period of at least four
years after Matriculation. But if a Candidate before entrance
to the University has passed the Intermediate Science or the
First Engineering Examination (or an Examination recognised
by the University as equivalent) , he will be allowed to enter on
the second year courses of study, and will be eligible for the
Degree after three years instead of four.

The Degree of B.Sc. (Engineering), provided that the
Engineering Matriculation Examination be passed on entering
upon the course of study, is recognised as a preliminary quali-
fication for appointment of Assistant Engineers to the per-
manent establishment of the Public Works Department of
India, and as exempting from the examination of the Insti-
tution of Civil Engineers for Associate Membership.

In MECHANICAL ENGINEERING the training throughout
the course is largely practical and experimental in its char-
acter ; the University Workshops, consisting of Forge,
Foundry, Machine Shop and Pattern-making Shop, are very
extensive, and equipped with the most modern tools.

In the latter part of the course attention is directed to
experimental work in the Engineering Laboratories, which are
fitted with modern appliances for demonstration of the
principles underlying engineering practice.

In CIVIL ENGINEERING, the courses of study are carried on
by Lectures, Workshop, Drawing, Laboratory, Exercises, and
Field Work, the object being to give the Student a thorough
training, both theoretical and practical, in those subjects, a
knowledge of which is necessary in the practice of the profes-
sion of Civil Engineering.

In ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING, the course for Students is
the same as that for Mechanical Engineering for the first two
years, and only differs in the third and fourth years in the
increased time spent in the Electrical Engineering Laboratory,

THE UNIVERSITY OF LEEDS.

The object of this University is, besides promoting educa-
tion in the usual subjects of University teaching, to provide
instruction in such Sciences and Arts as are applicable or
ancillary to the Manufacturing, Mining, Engineering, Metal-
lurgical, Fuel, and Agricultural industries, and in other subjects
of University teaching.

The University of Leeds grants Degrees in Arts, Com-
merce, Science, Medicine, Surgery, Dental Surgery, and Law.
It provides complete courses for the professions and occupa-
tions of Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Gas and Mining Engineer-
ing, Analytical Chemistry, Cloth Manufacture, Dyeing, Leather
Manufacture, and Agriculture, and lectures and classes in sub-
jects of general education suitable to those who desire to con-
tinue their studies beyond the point reached at school. The
classes are, in many cases, suited to students who are preparing
for the Examinations of the University of London.

The course of instruction in COMMERCE extends over two
years and leads up to the Diploma of the University. It in-
cludes French or German, Economics, Geography, Account-
ancy, Mathematics, Commercial Law, etc., and a short tech-
nical course.

The LAW DEPARTMENT affords systematic instruction for
intending Barristers and Solicitors.

The CHEMISTRY course includes Inorganic, Organic, Prac-
tical, and Applied Chemistry. A practical course in Sanitary
Chemistry is arranged on the lines laid down by the General
Medical Council and to suit the requirements of Medical
Officers of Health.

The course of instruction in CIVIL AND MECHANICAL
ENGINEERING extends over three sessions, and comprises
lectures on Engineering Principles and Works ; Instruction in
Machine and Geometrical Drawing; Experimental work in
the Engineering Laboratory. It does not supersede the usual
routine of engineering works and offices.

It is very desirable that all students should have some
practical experience in engineering works before taking the
University course.

The courses of instruction in ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING
are adapted to those who propose to take the B.Sc. Degree ;
for those who are preparing for the University Diploma ; or
for those who desire to attend a special part of the courses.

The Department of TEXTILE INDUSTRIES comprises the
following branches : (A) Woollen Yarn Manufacture ; (B)
Worsted Yarn Manufacture ; (c) Designing, Colouring and
Weaving ; (D) Finishing of Textile Fabrics.

Part of the work of the Department is carried out in con-
junction with that of the Dyeing Department, so that the whole
routine of Textile production from the raw material to the
finished fabric may be as practically learned at the Univer-
sity as in the mill. The scheme of teaching, as it relates to
mechanical operations, is devised to give as varied an experi-

ence in Spinning and Textile Manufacturing as is possible, and
also to supplement in an efficient way the Lecture Courses of
Study. The Spinning Buildings are equipped with the newest
machinery, in the weaving sheds there are 116 looms affording
unique facilities for experiments in design, weaving and colour-
ing of all classes of fabrics ; the Finishing Shed contains
machinery for scouring, milling, cutting and pressing ; the
Textile Museum has a valuable collection of woven and other
specimens, to which Students have access.

There are Special Classes for those who wish to specialise
in Design and Ornament for decorated fabrics.

The Department of DYEING includes courses for practical
dyers, or masters of dye-works, and instruction relating to the
chemistry of colouring matters and their manufacture. The
full course is for three years, but shorter courses are open to
Students who cannot remain for the full time.

LEATHER INDUSTRIES. The object of the course of study
in this department is, first, to familiarise students with the
details of the tanning process ; methods of chemical and
microscopic analysis are also taught and practised ; and in
the latter part of the course students are given the oppor-
tunity to take part in the practical production of leathers in
which they are interested, and to study the smaller details of
the processes. Particular attention is paid to leather dyeing
and the manufacture of coloured leathers.

The courses of study include :

1. A course for the degree of B.Sc. in the Honours
School of Applied Chemistry (Chemistry of Leather Manu-
facture.)

2. A course for the ordinary degree of B.Sc.

3. A course for the diploma in Leather Manufacture.
Shorter courses will be arranged for students who cannot

afford the necessary time for a degree or diploma course, but
in no case can a student be allowed to work in the Leather
Industries laboratories until he has satisfied the Professor
that he has the requisite preliminary training in chemistry.
Some previous acquaintance with actual leather manufacture is
very desirable before taking the University courses.

The diploma course is suitable for those who intend to
become technical managers in leather works, and is recom-
mended to those who require a practical knowledge of the
science and technology of the industry, but are unable to take a
degree course.

There are also advanced courses in Tanning, Leather dye-
ing and staining, and Practical Microscopy and Bacteriology.

The fees for the B.A. Courses amount to about 16 a year ;
for the B.Sc. Courses to about 25 a year ; in the Department
of Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Mining, for a full
year's course in each, about 30 ; and in the Department of
Textile Industries, Dyeing and Tinctorial Chemistry, and
Leather Industries about 25.

School, Cecilia Street, Dublin.

Students are recommended to consider well in regard to
their selection of a Medical School. While large schools have
certain advantages, a small school may in some cases suit a
Student better, as enabling him to have more individual instruc-
tion, and more opportunities of practical work.

OTHER ENGLISH MEDICAL SCHOOLS.
UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD.

There are two Degrees in Medicine (B.M. and D.M.) and
two Degrees in Surgery (B.Ch. and M.Ch.). The Degrees
B.M. and B.Ch., may, under favourable circumstances, be
obtained in six or seven years from Matriculation. They
are conferred only on candidates who have taken the B.A.
Degree, for which residence for three years within the Univer-
sity is necessary ; the examinations, however, for the degrees
in Arts and Medicine may be passed in any order, provided
the regulations are complied with. The most convenient
course for the B.A. Degree for intending graduates in Medicine
is to take Responsions, the Preliminary Science Examinations,
and the Final Honour School of Physiology.

UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE.

Most of the Medical Students who desire to take the
Bachelor of Medicine Degree (M.B.) of this University take
first the Natural Sciences Tripos, or some other Tripos, for
which residence for three years within the University is neces-
sary.

Cambridge is now a complete School of Medicine. All
the requisite Lectures and Hospital practice may be attended
there. For the M.B. Degree five years study is required.

The Medical Degrees conferred are : Bachelor of Medi-

7 o

cine (M.B.) , and Bachelor of Surgery (B.C.) ; also Doctor of
Medicine, and Master of Surgery.

Full information can be obtained from " The Cambridge
University Calendar."

The University of Durham grants six degrees in the Medical
Faculty M.B. , M.D., B.S., M.S., B.Hy., D.Hy. The Degrees
of M.D., B.S., and M.S. are granted only to M.B. graduates
of the University. The Degrees of B.Hy. and D.Hy. are
granted under certain conditions to graduates in medicine of
recognised Universities. The University also grants a diploma
in Public Health. These degrees are open both to men and
women.

DOCTOR OF MEDICINE (M.D.) (without residence). The
University of Durham has instituted a special examination
whereby the degree of Doctor of Medicine may be obtained
without residence. Candidates shall not be under 40 years of
age and shall have been in active practice for 15 years as regis-
tered medical practitioners. They shall produce certificates
of moral character from three registered members of the

UNIVERSITY OF LEEDS.

The Degrees granted in the Medical Faculty of this Uni-
versity are Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery
(M.B. and Ch.B.), Doctor of Medicine (M.D.), and Master of
Surgery (Ch.M.). Candidates must pass the Matriculation
Examination, but exemption from the Examination may be

granted to applicants holding certificates of having passed
examinations of a standard deemed by the Matriculation
Board to be at least equal to the Board's Examination.

Candidates for the M.B. must have attended courses of
instruction approved by the University for not less than five
years, two at least of such years having been passed in the
University subsequently to the date of passing the First

The Medical School forms the teaching centre of the
Medical Faculty of the University of Leeds, and is situated in
immediate proximity to the General Infirmary where Students
sufficiently advanced receive their clinical instruction. The
buildings were opened in 1894, and contain excellent dissecting
rooms, several well- arranged laboratories for Physiology,
Pathology, and Bacteriology, three lecture theatres, and
several smaller classrooms. In addition there are a library
,and reading room and two museums, one being devoted to
Pathology and the other to Anatomy. The comfort of the
students is secured by a common-room and a refectory in
which they can take meals. It is estimated by the authorities
that the approximate cost of medical education to a Student
in this University is 188, plus, of course, the expenses of
living during the five years covered by the curriculum. The
General Infirmary has 482 beds in constant use, and includes
gynaecological and ophthalmic wards and a large new out-
patient department. The Ida Semi-Convalescent Hospital
.and Robert Arthington Hospital, Cookridge, attached to the
Infirmary, has over 40 beds. The West Riding Lunatic
Asylum at Wakefield is open for the study of Mental Diseases.
Students can, in addition, attend the practice of the Leeds
Public Dispensary (where the practical instruction in dental
subjects is also given), the City Fever Hospitals (100 beds),
the Hospital for Women and Children, and the Leeds Maternity
Home.

THE UNIVERSITY OF BIRMINGHAM grants the degrees
of M.B., Ch.B., M.D., Ch.M. The course for the Bachelor
degrees extends over five years, from the date of registration
with the General Medical Council. As a rule the first four
of these years must be spent in the University, but the Senate
has power of recognising attendance at another University
as part of the attendance qualifying for these degrees, and of
recognising examinations passed at such other Universities as
exempting from the examinations in Chemistry, Physics, and
Elementary Biology. In the case of such students at least

three years must be spent in attendance upon classes at the
University. The fifth year may be spent at any school or
Schools of Medicine recognised by the University.

THE UNIVERSITY OF LIVERPOOL. Students must pass
either the University Matriculation examination or some
other approved examination. The course of professional
study subsequent to passing the Matriculation Examination
and having been registered as a medical student extends

must pass at least two of the five years of medical study in
the University, and one year at least must have been passed
in the University subsequent to the date of passing the first
examination. No candidate will be admitted to the degrees
of M.D., Ch.M., unless he has previously received the degrees
of M.B., Ch.B., and at least one year has elapsed since he
passed the examinations for those degrees.

VICTORIA UNIVERSITY OF MANCHESTER. Four degrees

having been passed in the University, and one year in the
University subsequent to the date of passing the first
examination.

THE UNIVERSITY OF BRISTOL. The medical degrees of
this University are similar to those in other Universities.
The regulations for obtaining such have not yet been pub-

lished, but they will doubtless be on the lines found in other
provincial Universities.

THE SCOTTISH UNIVERSITIES.

(EDINBURGH, GLASGOW, ABERDEEN, ST. ANDREWS.)

The regulations of all these Universities are the same for
Medical Degrees. Two of the five years of medical study
must, however, be spent in the University from which the
candidate takes his degree. The following regulations of the
University of Edinburgh may be taken as an example of all
the Scotch Universities.

Every Student, before commencing his medical studies, is
required to pass a Preliminary Examination in (i) English,
(2) Latin, (3) Elementary Mathematics, and (4) Greek or
French or German ; but an Indian Student may substitute
any other classical language for Latin or Greek, and his native
language for French or German. EXEMPTIONS : Indian Stu-
dents who present evidence that they have passed examina-
tions which would admit them to Universities in India will be
exempted, provided that the evidence shows that they
possess a knowledge of English sufficient to follow the lectures
with profit, and provided that the examinations in India
include all the four subjects stated above ; e.g., the Matricula-
tion or Entrance Examination of an Indian University does
not exempt unless the candidate has passed in two languages ;
if an Indian student has passed in one language only, in India,
he must undergo examination in a second language in Scot-
land.

The Medical Council has ruled that the Preliminary
Examination must be passed before attendance at any medical
lectures can be counted.

All Students are required to Matriculate before they can
be enrolled in any of the Classes in the University. Matricula-
tion consists in inscribing the name in the Students' Album,
and paying an annual entrance fee of i.

Medical Study may be begun either in October (Winter
Session) or in May (Summer Session).

No one is admitted to the degrees of BACHELOR OF
MEDICINE and BACHELOR OF SURGERY who has not been en-
gaged in Medical and Surgical Study for five years.

Two of the five years of medical study must be spent in the
University of Edinburgh. The remaining three years may be
spent in any University of the United Kingdom, or in any
Indian, Colonial, or Foreign University recognised for the pur-
pose by the University Court. Of the subjects of study,

16 in number viz., Anatomy, Practical Anatomy, Chemistry,
Practical Chemistry, Materia Medica, Physiology, Prac-
tical Physiology, Practice of Medicine, Surgery, Midwifery
and Diseases of Women, Pathology, Practical Pathol-
ogy, Physics, Botany, Zoology, Medical Jurisprudence, and
Public Health not less than eight must be taken in the
University of Edinburgh or in some other University of the
United Kingdom, or in some Foreign or Colonial University
entitled to confer the Degree of Doctor of Medicine, recognised
for the purpose by the University Court.

Candidates for Degrees must have attended for at least
three academic years the medical and surgical practice of a
general hospital which accommodates not fewer than 80
patients and possesses a distinct staff of physicians and
surgeons. They must have attended Clinical Surgery during
a course or courses extending over not less than nine months,
and a similar course of Clinical Medicine during not less than
nine months. The Candidate must have attended a course of
instruction in Mental Diseases, consisting of not less than
six class-room meetings for lectures and demonstrations and
ten meetings in the Wards of a recognised Asylum for the
Insane ; he must have attended a course of 25 meetings on
Practical Pharmacy in a University or recognised School of
Medicine, or have dispensed drugs for a period of three months
in a hospital or dispensary, or in an establishment recognised
by the Pharmaceutical Society ; he must have attended for at
least six months the out-practice of a hospital, or the practice
of a dispensary, or of a qualified practitioner. He must have
acted as clerk in the medical wards and dresser in the surgical
wards of a public hospital for a period of six months in each
case ; and must also have availed himself of opportunities of
studying at a hospital or dispensary Post-mortem Examina-
tions, Fevers, Diseases of the Eye, Operative Surgery, Practical
Anaesthetics, and one of the three following, viz. : Diseases of
Children ; Diseases of the Larynx, Ear and Nose ; and Diseases
of the skin. The Candidate must have attended, under the
superintendence of a registered medical practitioner, 25 cases
of labour, or have attended for three months the practice of a

properly instructed in Vaccination at a public vaccination
station, by a public vaccinator, authorised by the proper
Government authority to grant certificates of proficiency in
vaccination.

All the Degrees of the Scottish Universities are open
to women, who are admitted to graduation in medicine under
practically the same conditions as men. The Medical College
for Women, 30, Chambers Street,- Edinburgh, has been recog-
nised as a Medical School whose courses of instruction qualify
for graduation.

The Fees for the four divisions of the Examinations are
respectively, 6 guineas, 5 guineas, 4 guineas and 7 guineas, in
all 23 2s.

Attendance in Medical Classes in India is accepted as
qualifying for Degrees in Medicine. But it is important that
Indian Students should ascertain whether the courses that
the> have attended in India contained the prescribed number
of Lectures. If not, the deficiency will have to be supplied.

The M.D. Degree is conferred on Candidates who have
obtained the Degrees of M.B. and Ch.B., and are twenty-four
years of age, and who can produce certain certificates of
clinical work. They have to submit a Thesis on a medical
subject. Fee for M.D., 10 los. Fee for Ch.M., 10 los.

Any further information relative to the courses of Medical
Instruction, and the regulations for Degrees can be obtained
from the Dean, Medical Faculty of the respective Universities.

THE ROYAL COLLEGES OF SURGEONS AND
PHYSICIANS OF EDINBURGH, AND FACULTY OF
PHYSICIANS AND SURGEONS OF GLASGOW.

The Royal College of Physicians] of Edinburgh, the Royal
College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, and the Faculty of Physi-
cians and Surgeons of Glasgow, have made arrangements by
which, after one series of Examinations, held in Edinburgh or
in Glasgow, or in Edinburgh and Glasgow, the Student may
obtain the Diplomas of the three Bodies.

The object of the Joint Examination is to give to Students
facilities for obtaining, after one series of Examinations, the
qualifications in Medicine, Surgery and Widwifery, of the three
Scottish Corporations.

Students passing the Final Examination will be entitled
to register three Diplomas under the Medical Acts viz.,
Licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh,
Licentiate of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, and
Licentiate of the Faculty of Physicians and Surgeons of
Glasgow.

Female Candidates are admitted to the Examinations.

The three Co-operating Bodies grant their Single Quali-
fications only to Candidates who already possess another and
opposite Qualification in Medicine or Surgery, as the case may
be.

N.B. Under the provisions of the Medical Act of 1886,
these Single Qualifications do not confer the right to registra-
tion, except as Qualifications additional to those already on
the Register.

The curriculum lasts for five years ; the fifth year should
be devoted to clinical work at one or more Public Hospitals
or Dispensaries, and to the study of Special Diseases. Six
months of the fifth year may be passed by the Student as a
Pupil of a Registered practitioner possessing such oppor-

tunities of imparting practical knowledge as may be deemed
satisfactory by the Committee of Management.

Candidates for the Diplomas of the three Licensing Cor-
porations must have passed the complete Examination in
General Education, and have had their names inscribed in the
Register of Medical Students instituted by the General Medical
Council at the commencement of their professional studies.
Students should therefore make sure that this has been done,
as disappointment has sometimes arisen through ignorance or
neglect on the part of the Candidate of this requirement.
Foreign and Colonial Candidates require to be registered as
Students, and when they have studied at recognised institutions
before coming to this country, subsequent to having passed a
registrable preliminary examination, they are recommended
when they register to apply to the Registrar to have their regis-
tration antedated, so as to cover their course of study.

Candidates shall be subjected to four Professional Exam-
inations :

FIRST EXAMINATION. This shall embrace the following
divisions of subjects (i) Physics, (2) Chemistry, including
Practical Chemistry (3) Elementary Biology. Fees for the
whole Examination, 5 ; for each division separately, 3.

SECOND EXAMINATION. The Second Examination shall
embrace Anatomy and Physiology (including Histology). Can-
didates may be admitted at the end of the second year of
medical study. Fee, 5.

THIRD EXAMINATION. The Third Examination shall em-
brace Pathology and Materia Medica with Pharmacy. Fee,

5s-

FINAL EXAMINATION. This shall not be passed earlier
than the end of the fifth year of study, and shall embrace the
following subjects (i) Medicine, including Therapeutics,
Medical Anatomy, and Clinical Medicine, (2) Surgery, including
Surgical Anatomy, Clinical Surgery, and Diseases and injuries
of the Eye, (3) Midwifery, and Diseases of Women and of
New-born Children, and (4) Medical Jurisprudence and Public
Health. Fee, 15.

All Candidates shall be subjected, in addition to the
Written and Oral Examinations, to Clinical Examinations in
Medicine and Surgery, which shall include the Examination of
Patients, Physical Diagnosis, the Clinical Use of the Micro-
scope, Examination of the Urine and Urinary Deposits, Surgical
Appliances, Bandages, Surface Markings, etc.

Any Candidate admitted to the Final Examination on the

footing of having passed the earlier Examinations elsewhere,
must nevertheless pay the full fees.

There are six periods of Examination annually, four in
Edinburgh and two in Glasgow.

Among the Boards whose earlier Examinations are recog-
nised by the Co-operating Authorities are the Universities and
Colleges in India and the British Colonies, whose Matricula-
tion Examinations have been recognised by the General
Medical Council, whose curriculum of professional study fulfils
the requirements of this Board, and whose diplomas are
granted upon equivalent Examination to those of this Board,
and entitle to practise Medicine or Surgery in the Indian or
Colonial dependency in which the Institution is situated.

The following are the names and addresses of the Regis-
trars : In Edinburgh Mr. James Robertson, Solicitor, 54,
George Square. In Glasgow Mr. A. Duncan, LL.D., Faculty
Hall, 242, St. Vincent Street.

UNIVERSITY OF BRUSSELS.

British and other practitioners holding registrable qualifi-

Brussels, without any further curriculum. It is necessary,
however, that all candidates should leave their diplomas with

the first, recover the fees paid for the second and third ; those
who fail in the second recover the fees paid for the third
examination. There are three examinations viz., ist Doc-
torate, 2nd Doctorate, and 3rd Doctorate. Great importance
is attached to practical knowledge, but Candidates must also
prove that they possess positive theoretical science. The
examinations, which are viva voce, take place on the first
Tuesday in November, December, February, May, and June.
Candidates have the option of passing each Doctorate separ-
ately or of taking the three at one examination. The time
required for the three examinations seldom exceeds ten days.
Saturday, before 2 p.m., is the most eligible day for arriving
for Candidates with whom time is an object. The examina-

Camberwell, S.E., will be pleased to give information or re-
ceive applications for membership. An article containing a
full description of everything concerning the degree was pub-
lished in the " British Medical Journal " on September 15 th,
1888.

ACCOUNTANTS.

INSTITUTE OF CHARTERED ACCOUNTANTS AND
SOCIETY OF ACCOUNTANTS AND AUDITORS.

There are two well-known Societies in England under
which Students can qualify as Accountants: The Institute of
Chartered Accountants and the Society of Incorporated
Accountants and Auditors ; ani also the Scottish Chartered
Societies. The courses of study for these are all the same.

No person can present himself for the Final Examination
unless he has served for five years as an Articled Clerk to a
Public Accountant practising in England or Wales (or if he is a
graduate of any University of the United Kingdom for a period
of three years). No person who is under 16 years of age can
be received as an Articled Clerk by a Member of either Society,
neither can he be admitted to membership before he is 21.

There are a few members of the Society of Incorporated
Accountants and Auditors who carry on the business of
Public Accountants in India, to whom Indian students can be
articled, but they must attend in England to pass both the
Intermediate and Final Examinations, there being no exami-
nation centre in India. To become a member of the Institute
of Chartered Accountants or of a Scottish Chartered Society
a student must serve and qualify in England and Wales or
Scotland respectively.

Before being Articled, a Preliminary Examination as a
test of general education must be passed, unless one of the
exempting examinations has already been passed in the
necessary subjects.

The subjects for the Preliminary Examination of both
Societies are as follows :

i. Dictation and English Composition. 2. Arithmetic.
3. Algebra, to Quadratic Equations. 4. Euclid (the first Four
Books). 5. History of England and Geography. 6. Latin
(Elementary). And two of the following subjects (one of
which must be a language) : Latin, Greek, French, German,
Italian, Spanish, Higher Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry,
Animal Physiology, Electricity and Magnetism, Light and
Heat, Geology, Stenography.

Indian Examinations are not recognised by the bye-laws
of the Institute of Chartered Accountants as exempting from
this Examination.

A copy of the list of books selected for the examination of
Candidates in the optional subjects will be prepared six
months before the Examination and can be obtained by appli-
cation.

An Intermediate Examination will be held after one-half
of the term of service. This Examination will be conducted
in writing in the following subjects : (i) Book-keeping and
Accounts (including Partnership Accounts) ; (2) Book-keeping
and Accounts (including Executorship Accounts) ; (3) Audit-
ing ; (4) The Rights and Duties of Liquidators, Trustees and
Receivers.

The Final Examination at the end of the Service under

-Articles cannot be taken in less than two years after the In-
termediate Examination (except in the case of graduates of a
University who are only serving for three years, by whom
it may be taken one year after passing the Intermediate).

The Final Examination in both Societies is conducted
in writing in the following subjects :

(i) Book-keeping and Accounts (including Partnership
Accounts) ; (2) Book-keeping and Accounts (including Execu-
torship Accounts ; (3) Auditing ; (4) The Rights and Duties of
Liquidators, Trustees and Receivers ; (5) The Principles of the
Law of Bankruptcy, and of the Law Relating to Joint Stock
'Companies ; (6) The Principles of Mercantile Law, and of the
Law of Arbitrations and Awards.

In London premiums on Articles vary from 50 to 500
guineas, according to the status of the firm to whom the Clerk
is articled, an average premium being 200 guineas ; while in
the country 50 to 300 guineas is about the rule. In the case
of the Scottish Chartered Societies the premium or apprentice
fee is 105, and there is another 105 payable to the general
fund of the Society on the candidate's admission after the
prescribed examinations have been passed, as well as an
annual contribution of 5 55. payable to the Endowment and
Annuity Fund of the Society.

ENGINEERING AND TECHNICAL TRAINING.

The money necessary for an Engineering training, exclud-
ing outfit and passage, and premiums for a practical course, but
including cost of living, clothing, college fees, holidays, travel-
ling and all incidental expenses, cannot be less than 200 to.
220 a year, or Rs. 256 to Rs. 275 per mensem.

The time to be spent in Great Britain will depend on which
branch of the profession is adopted, and what funds are
'provided : it cannot well be less than three years, and need not
be more than five. But before the student leaves India
he should have received a scientific education in an Indian
College, otherwise time and money will be needlessly spent in
this country on ,a preliminary education, that can be as well
obtained in India at less cost.

He should have acquired at least a sound and thorough
knowledge of pure mathematics i.e., geometry, algebra,
and trigonometry ; some acquaintance with analytical and
practical plane geometry, the elements of solid geometry and
a working knowledge of the differential and integral calculus
and of the simple differential equations. He should, further,,
have had some instruction in applied mathematics and
mechanics, and a general knowledge of elementary physics
and chemistry. He should also have learned drawing,
especially free-hand and geometrical drawing and practical
mensuration.

The engineering profession comprises several distinct
branches, for each of which a special training is required.
The Indian student coming to this country should therefore
decide beforehand which of these he intends to adopt, so .that
he may save much time and money by selecting the suitable
education and training. The branches of engineering which
at present offer careers to Indian students, are as follows :

I. CIVIL. ENGINEERING. (a) Railways, (b) Irrigation, (c)
Works, Wharfs and .Harbours, (d) Roads and Buildings, (e}
Drairiage and Sewerage, (/) Water Supply, (g) River Works.

2. MECHANICAL ENGINEERING. (a) Marine Engines and
Dredging Plant, (b) Locomotive Engines, (c) Stationary
Steam Power Engines, (d) Oil and Gas Power Engines and
Motors, (e] Hydraulic Engines and Machinery, (/) Turbines,
Hydraulic and Steam, (g) Pumping Engines and Plant, (h)
Textile, Mining and Rolling Mills, Machinery and Plant, (i)
Portable Engines and Factory Plant, (/) Aerial Ropeways
and Conveying Machinery. r~&

3. ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING. (a) Electric Railways, (&')
Street Tramways, (c) Telegraph, Marconigraph and Telephone,
(d) Sighting and Power Plant, (e) Mining Machinery, (/)
Textile Machinery, (g) General Workshop Machinery, (h}
Telpherage.

4. MINING ENGINEERING.

.5. Iron, Steel, Copper and Lead Manufactures; with
Allied Industries of Wood and Metal Works.

If the student should elect for the Public Works Department
it will be necessary for him to have a generally good knowledge
of i. (a), (b), (d), (e), and (/) ; 2. (d), with some workshop
experience of mechanical engineering, and also of 5. This
entails his taking at least a three years' course, or more
profitably a four years' course, at one of the many good
Engineering Colleges of Great Britain ; or he may take a B.Sc.
degree in Engineering, which will make him eligible for
Associate Membership of the Institution of Civil Engineers.

There are more openings for well-educated and properly-
trained mechanical engineers in India than there are for civil
engineers. Before long also a large field will be open for
employment in electrical engineering in all its sections, (a) to
id), throughout India. For this the student will have to
take a five or six years' course of education and training, if he
wants to be a master in the profession of electrical engineering,
and not a mechanic electrician, which is the fate of many
young men at present who have not spent the full time re-
quired. To be a good electrical engineer it is necessary, first,
to take a three years' course in mechanical engineering .
followed by a two years' course in a technical college, combined
with electrical shop and test-room work.

The mining industry of India is increasing largely every
year, and offers much employment to Indian students. After
a four years' course at the Royal School of Mines, and two
years spent at the coal, iron, tin and lead mines of this coun-
try, the student should be well fitted for undertaking charge
of any of the four mining industries above mentioned, and
these are certain to be greatly developed before long in India.

It will be some time before the smelting and manufacture
of metals will be sufficiently developed to offer careers to trained
students. Some enterprises of the kind have started in India,
and others are contemplated, but they are far from being
established undertakings yet.

Considering the four branches herein mentioned, the first,
or civil, requires the shortest time for obtaining the necessary
qualifications, either by means of a University degree or a
technical college coarse. This does not, however, complete
the training necessary for a civil engineer, and a year or two
of a practical course should be undertaken. To obtain
this practical training under a civil engineer of some standing
and current practice, entails for the Indian student at least an
additional year's residence in this country, and an expenditure
of one hundred guineas as a premium.

If the Indian student is preparing for the Public Works
Department he must, to conform with regulations, have
had some knowledge of workshop training, and this he can
only acquire by being admitted into one of the many large
engineering workshops of this country for at least six months,
and more if possible. For this a premium may or may not
be required, as some engineering colleges and technical colleges
have excellent workshops of their own, and with a four years'
course are able to introduce selected students into engineering
workshops for three summer courses of six month each.
During this workshop course he will have to enter as an
apprentice, and work with the workmen of the shops and
conform to their hours and rules, which are very strict.

For mechanical engineering the student, after having
finished a two years' college course, should enter some good
engineering workshop as a premium pupil for three years. He
will then be fitted for employment as an assistant locomotive
superintendent on an Indian railway provided, of course, he
holds good certificates from his college and the works.

For electrical engineering, he must spend eighteen months
in some good engineering workshops, where electrical power
engines are built ; in the forge, fitting and erecting shops ;
then eighteen months in some electrical plant manufacturer's
works as Crumptons or Siemens' Brothers in machine shop,
testing room, and drawing office ; after which spend one
whole year as junior shift engineer in the power house of some
large electrical lighting and power company, and another year
outside on maintenance of tramways and lighting way and
works.

The fully- qualified electrical engineer has better prospects

in India than men of either of the other two branches of the
profession. Moreover, it will not be long before the mountain
railways of India will have to be worked by hydro-electric
power if they are to be worked profitably, while most, if not
all, cotton and jute mills will also have to be worked by
electricity. So the prospects of an electrical engineer in
India are quite good, and sufficiently enticing for the student
who is wiling to spend time and money on specialising in this
branch.

The limit of age for entering Government service in the
Public Works Department is 24, so that students specialising
for it should begin their course of education and training in
Great Britain before they are 20 or 21 years of age in the
month of July according as they propose to take a degree at
a University or a technical college course of four years. But
if they are adopting the engineering profession with a view to
employment with railway companies, municipalities, district
boards, or private and other undertakings, they may spend
their time in this country up to the age of 25, and even 27,
having due regard to all other conditions. As before stated,
it is very necessary that Indian students coming here for an
engineering education and training should have been thorough-
ly well educated to the extent already mentioned, otherwise
they will find it both difficult and expensive, not to say irksome,
to go through a course of school work in this country after the
age of 16 or 18.

UNIVERSITY ENGINEERING COURSES.

various branches of science, especially in its application to
industry.

The courses of instruction are planned so as to extend
over four years, and are generally similar for all divisions

9 6

during the first year, and to a less extent during the second
year, after which they are specialised according to the particu-
lar division in which the student is working. Students on
entering must specify as far as possible the third year or third
and] fourth year courses in which they intend to specialise.
Those intending to specialise in Civil and Mechanical Engineer-
ing or Electrical Engineering will be regarded as students of the
City and Guilds College ; in Mining or Metallurgy as students
of the Royal School of Mines ; in Mechanics, Physics, Chemis-
try, Botany, Zoology or Geology as students of the Royal
College of Science. Candidates for admission to a first year
course must satisfy the authorities of the College that they
have received a good secondary education, and must as a
rule be not less than 17 years of age.
They are required to show :

(i.) That in general education they have reached a
standard equivalent to that usually marked by Uni-
versity Matriculation ; and

(ii.) That their previous scientific education is such
as to enable them to profit from the scientific training
given in the course which they desire to enter ; e.g., a
knowledge of Elementary Mathematics, Mechanics,
Physics and Chemistry sufficient for the University of
London Matriculation Examination.
Every student should have acquired some facility in
freehand drawing.

Applications for admission to the College must be made
on Form 1289, obtainable from the Registrar, and be sent
not later than the first week in July for admission in the
following October. In this form a statement should be given
of the studies which the applicant has already pursued, the
examinations he has passed, and the names of a Teacher or
Teachers to whom reference may be made. This application
will be considered by the Council of the College, who will
decide whether or not the Candidate can be admitted.

Students must be free from any organic disease or
physical defect that would interfere with their studies.

The Session is divided into two Terms. The first
Term begins about the first week in October, and ends about
the middle of February. The second term begins in the
middle of February, and ends about the beginning of July.
A certain number of Royal Exhibitions, National Scholar-
ships, and Free Studentships tenable at the College are
awarded by competition at the Examinations of the Board of
Education, South Kensington.

The diploma of the Imperial College of Science and
Technology will be awarded only on the satisfactory comple-
tion of two years' study in advanced science or technology at
the Imperial College, except in cases where, the Imperial
College recognises for this purpose in associated Universities,
&c., courses of study for which the Imperial College does not
make provision in any of its own constituent Colleges.

I. ROYAL COLLEGE OF SCIENCE.

This part of the Imperial College includes the Departments
of Mathematics and Mechanics, Physics, Chemistry, Botany,
Zoology and Geology.

The complete course extends over 4 years (i.e., 12 terms),
and the fees vary according to the course taken, ranging
from 5 to 17 a term, and amounting in all to 120 to 150.

The conditions governing the award of the Associateship
of the Royal College of Science are subject to revision with
regard to the Session 1910-11, and subsequent Sessions.

II. ROYAL SCHOOL OF MINES.

The courses of study in the Departments of Mining
and Metallurgy extend over four years (i.e., 12 terms) and
the fees vary from 2 to 13 a term, amounting in all to
140 150.

Students who enter for the Associateship of the Royal
School of Mines in and subsequent to the Session 1908-9 will
be required satisfactorily to complete a four years' course
of study.

III. THE CITY AND GUILDS CENTRAL TECHNICAL
COLLEGE, EXHIBITION ROAD, S.W.

The object of the Central Institution is to give to London
<L College for higher technical education, in which advanced
instruction shall be provided in those kinds of knowledge
which bear upon the different branches of industry, whether
Manufactures or Arts.

The main purpose of the instruction given is to demon-
strate practically the application of different branches of
science to various manufacturing industries.

In order that this instruction may be efficiently carried
out, the College comprises laboratories, drawing offices, and
workshops ; and opportunities are afforded for the prose-
cution of original research, with the object of the more
thorough training of the Students, and for the elucidation of
the theory of industrial processes.

The Courses of Instruction are arranged to suit the:
requirements of

1. Persons who are training to become Technical
Teachers.

2. Persons who are preparing to enter Engineers' or
Architects' offices, or Manufacturing works.

3. Persons who desire to acquaint themselves with
the scientific principles underlying the particular branch
of industry in which they are engaged.

The Entrance or Matriculation Examination for Can-
didates who desire to qualify for the Diploma, is held in
September, and is open to all persons not less than 16 years,
of age at the date of the Examination. The subjects are : i.
Mathematics and Mechanics (compulsory). 2. Mechanical
Drawing. 3. Physics. 4. Chemistry. (Two of these three
subjects must be passed.) 5. English. 6. French or Ger-
man. Fee, i. The London University Examination, if
passed in certain PRESCRIBED SUBJECTS, may be offered in
lieu of the Entrance Examination of the College, but a know-
ledge of Trigonometry is necessary.

Instruction at the College is given in three Departments.
i. Civil and Mechanical Engineering. 2. Electrical Engineer-
ing. 3. Chemistry. The course in each Department is of
three years. Students select the Department in which they
desire to be classed when entering the College.

The Fees for the complete Course of Instruction to be pur-
sued by a Matriculated Student are 36 per Session, payable
in advance, or 37 payable in two instalments 19 in Sep-
tember and 18 in January.

The Diploma Course includes instruction in all four Depart-
ments, and is practically the same during the first year for all
Students. It is specialised in the second year, to a certain
extent, according to the particular branch of industrial work
in which the Student expects to be engaged ; and in the third
year, the Student devotes himself almost exclusively to the
work of the Department which he enters.

The Diploma of ASSOCIATE OF THE CITY AND GUILDS OF
LONDON INSTITUTE (indicated by the letters A. C.G.I.), stating
the industry or branch of Engineering in which each recipient
has qualified, is awarded by the Council on the recommendation
of the Board of Studies, to Matriculated Students, who have
gone through a complete course of instruction as laid down in
the programme, and have passed with sufficient merit the
several Examinations. The Diploma in either Civil and
Mechanical Engineering or in Electrical Engineering is,

accepted by the Council of the Institution of Civil Engineers,
as exempting from the Examination for Associate Member-
ship (A.M.I.C.E.).

Students wishing to attend Special or Partial Courses,,
must satisfy the Professors that they possess sufficient know-
ledge to follow the teaching. The fees for these, including
laboratory work, for i, 2, 3, 4, 5 days in a week, are 7, 9,
11, 12 ios., 14 respectively per term ; besides an entrance
fee of 2.

The Fellowship, indicated by the letter F.C.G.I., is con-
ferred upon those who, having obtained the Associateship,
have spent at least five years in actual practice, and can
produce evidence of having done some original and valuable
research work, or of having otherwise contributed to the
advancement of the industry in which they are engaged.

Students at the end of their first year's course are not
admitted to the advanced course unless they show, not only by
their answers in examination, but by the quality of their
weekly work as evidenced by lecture note-books, laboratory
note-books, drawings, &c., that they are able to take ad-
vantage of the training. Failing this their places are liable
to be filled up by new Students. The reports furnished at
the end of each of the three terms of the year indicate the
progress of the Student.

No conditions about residence are prescribed by the Col-
lege. A list of boarding-houses recommended to Students can
be had on application to the Registrar of the College.

(3). The Technical Art School embraces Departments
of Modelling, Drawing and Painting, and House Decoration.

ations in Technology, Domestic Economy, and Manual Train-
ing,

CRYSTAL PALACE COMPANY'S SCHOOL OF PRAC-
TICAL ENGINEERING.

This School was established (1872) for the purpose of
providing Students of Mechanical or Civil Engineering with
thorough practical instruction in the rudiments of the profes-
sion, and in the manipulation of materials. The leading
object is to prepare Students, by a system of combined
practical and theoretical instruction, for the profession, so
that on entering an Engineer's office or works the pupil may
at once be useful to his Principal, and enabled to take ad-

lOI

vantage of the opportunities open to him, having mastered
the elementary details of the profession.

The School is also available for Students already articled,
who desire instruction in either the offices or shops ; for
gentlemen who wish to become Draughtsmen to Engineers or
Patent Agents ; or to study Electro-Mechanics ; or to fit
themselves by practical knowledge of scientific and mechanical
work and expedients, for 'life in the colonies or abroad.

Candidates for admission to this School of Practical
Engineering are required to pass a preliminary examination
in the rudiments of Arithmetic, Algebra, Mensuration,
Mechanical Powers, and Resolution of Forces.

The usual age for Students to be examined for entrance
into the School is sixteen or seventeen years ; but there is
no limit as to age.

MECHANICAL COURSE. The Mechanical Course is com-
prised in one year, and is designed to convey instruction
essential either to the Student who intends to be a Mechanical
Engineer, or to follow the Civil Engineering or any other
branch of the profession. The year is divided into three
terms of fifteen weeks each.

One term of this Course is devoted to the study of Mech-
anical Drawing, another to Pattern Making and Foundry
Work, and a third to Fitting and Smith's Work. While
employed in the Drawing Office, Students are engaged in
making drawings of machinery and constructions, in tracing,
in getting out quantities and estimates, in calculating the
strength of materials, &c. In the Pattern Shop and Foundry
they prepare patterns of engines and machinery and practice
Moulding and Foundry work ; in the Fitting Shop and
Smiths, in fitting and erecting engines of from 3 to 6-horse
power, or other suitable work for the market, and in forging
and tool-making.

Lectures on engineering subjects are delivered to the
Students twice a week.

CIVIL ENGINEERING COURSE. The instruction is intended
to be supplementary to the Mechanical Course of the School,
and like it, a preparation for the profession ; but it can be
attended separately, or the Students can attend one or more
of the Terms into which the tuition is divided.

The Course is one year, and the tuition is divided into
three Terms, each of fifteen weeks.

The first Term is devoted to Projecting and Practical
Preparation by actual Levelling, etc., of plans in detail for a

102

complete Public Work (as a Railway and Dock) and the pre-
paration of Plans and Estimates for Parliament.

The second Term is devoted to the preparation of Work-
ing Plans and Sections, Calculations, Estimates, etc.

The third is utilised for original Designing, and for the
investigation of existing Engineering Works, completed or in
progress, and the general application of principles in practice.

ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING. The ordinary curriculum
for the Electrical Section is of two Terms' duration, during
which the Students' time is devoted to Special Lectures ;
instruction, both Theoretical and Practical, in the shops
and offices of the School, and directed practical work. The
instruction is intended to be supplementary to the ordinary
curriculum of the School.

The Fee for the Mechanical Course, i year, is 54, for
the Civil Course 64 ios., or for both Courses, 2 years, paid
for in advance, 108. The Fee for the Special Electrical
Course is 21 ios. per Term.

THE INSTITUTION OF CIVIL ENGINEERS.

This Institution does not issue certificates of passage of
its Examinations, which are held solely for the purpose of
proving eligibility for admission as a Student of the Institu-
tion, or for election into the Corporation, in so far as such
attainments are comprised in the requirements.

The Institution holds (i) Studentship and (2) Associate
Membership Examinations in February and October of each
year. For the former the Council will consider any applica-
tion from a person who is duly recommended for Admission
as a Student of the Institution. Applications to attend the
whole or any part of the latter will be received only from (a)
Students of the Institution who are not less than 21 years
nor more than 26 years of age on the last day for entry ;
or (b) persons who have lodged duly completed proposals
for their election into the Institution and have been formally
notified by the Council that they must pass the examination as
a condition of election. Applications to be examined must
be on the prescribed form, and must be in the hands of the
Secretary not later than 3ist December for the February
examination, and not later than 3ist August for the. October-
examination.

The Examination Fees for the Studentship Examination
are, on a first entry, i us. 6d., and for, any subsequent
entry is. is., and for the Associate Membership Examination.
2 I2s. 6d. and 2 2s. respectively.

103

Arrangements may, at the discretion of the Council, be
made for the examination of persons in India and the Colonies.
The papers of the October examination only will be placed
before such candidates, and their applications and fees must
be in the Secretary's hands not later than the 3ist May
preceding.

The Studentship Examination includes the following
subjects : (i) English, (2) Mathematics, (3) two subjects
selected from the following ten : a language is not compulsory,
but in any case not more than one language may be taken : -

(i.) Latin, (ii.) Greek, (iii.) French, (iv.) German, (v.)
Italian, (vi.) Spanish, (vii.) Elementary Mechanics of solids
and fluids, (viii.) Elementary Physics, including heat, light,
electricity and magnetism, (ix.) Elementary Chemistry, (x.)
Geometrical and Freehand Drawing.

Graduates of any University in the British Empire,
Whitworth Scholars, and Whitworth Exhibitioners are
exempted from this examination ; and various examinations
held by certain British and Colonial Universities are recognised
by the Council as qualifying in lieu of it. It is a condition of
the acceptance of these Certificates as exempting qualifications
that they shall have been obtained by passing the respective
Examinations at one sitting.

The Associate Membership Examination is divided into
two parts: Part I., General Knowledge, and Part II., Scienti-
fic. In the former candidates are required to prove their
knowledge of the English language, and their attainments
in general knowledge by writing an essay of about 1,000
words. Students of the Institution, and persons producing
qualifications equivalent to those required for the Studentship
examination, are not required to pass this. The latter is
divided into Sections A and B. Section A includes (i) Me-
chanics, (2) Strength and Elasticity of Materials, (3) Either
'(a) Theory of Structures, or (b) Theory of Electricity and
Magnetism.

Section B. In this two of the following nine subjects (not
more than one from any group) may be taken :

GROUP I. GROUP II. GROUP III.

Geodesy. Hydraulics. Geology and Mineralogy.

tro Chemistry.

In the discretion of the Council arrangements may be
made for the examination in October of persons residing in

104

India, or in the Colonies, in whose favour proposals for
election have been lodged.

As the rules are frequently revised, application should
be made directly to the Institution.

An essential condition of election into the Institution is,
a regular course of engineering training under -practical con-
ditions, and the Council attach so much importance to this
condition that they require all persons who contemplate
attending the Institution Examinations to show that they
either have, or intend to obtain, such regular practical
training under practising engineers.

THE NORTHAMPTON POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE,

LONDON.

The aim of the Institute is to provide courses in technolo-
gical and trade subjects ; its object is not to prepare the
student to pass Examination tests, but to fit him to become
.-a competent worker and thinker in the career which he has
chosen.

The day courses in Engineering and other subjects are for
Students who are willing to give the whole of their time, for
x>ne, two or more years, to thorough systematic training ;
the evening classes are for those who are unable to attend
during the day.

The Engineering Day courses are divided into three
sections (i) Mechanical Engineering, (2) Electrical Engineering,
;and (3) Watchmaking and Horological Engineering.

The work consists of lectures, exercise classes, laboratory
work, drawing office and workshop practice. The laborato-
ries, drawing offices and workshops are fully equipped with
the most recent apparatus and tools.

The aim in the Mechanical Engineering section is to
give a good all-round training in the fundamental principles of
modern mechanical engineering practice. Special attention is
devoted to the design and application of automatic machinery
for that rapid and economical production of finished work
which is every day becoming more and more important.
Lectures are given dealing with the commercial side of Engi-
neering.

In the Electrical Engineering section, besides the training
in Electric Lighting and Power Distribution special courses

are given in Electric Traction and in Telegraphy and Tele-
phony, including Radio-Telegraphy.

In Horology considerable time is given to workshop
practice. Students are taught the methods of finishing,
escapement making, &c., by aid of hand tools, besides receiving
instruction in the details of automatic tools.

There are also day courses in. Electro-Chemistry, in
Technical Optics and in Artistic Crafts in all of which the
methods and aims are similar, mutatis mutandis to those
adopted in the Engineering day courses. In Electro-Chemistry
the latest developments in a rapidly extending branch of
applied science are included. The technical optics section is
unique and covers a wide range extending from scientific

* sight testing to the construction of the most refined optical
instruments. In Artistic Crafts there are courses in Art Metal
work of all kinds from the most delicate jewellery to heavy

decorative iron work ; there are also classes in artistic book-
binding, and other subjects.

Students joining the Institute should not be less than
fifteen years of age, and are required to pass an Entrance
Examination in English and Elementary Mathematics.

THE MUNICIPAL SCHOOL OF TECHNOLOGY,
MANCHESTER.

The object of the Municipal School of Technology is to
provide instruction and training in the principles of Science
in their application to the Industrial Arts, with a view to a
right understanding of the foundations upon which these arts
rest, 'and to promote their effective development.

The School is designed to accommodate the Mechanical,
Electrical and Sanitary Engineering, the Chemical, Textile,
Building, Letterpress Printing, Lithographic, Photo-process,
and some other minor trade industries ; whilst adjoining the
main building is the Dye-house, where ample provision is made
for the study of Bleaching, Dyeing, Printing and Finishing
of Textile Goods, and for Paper-making.

The successful career of a student depends very largely
upon his previous general education, for unless this has been
thorough and liberal, no satisfactory progress can be attained
in any of the departments of the School.

The School offers to Students who have reached their i6th
year the following courses, each of three years' duration :

1. Mechanical Engineering.

2. Electrical Engineering and Technical Physics.

3. Municipal Sanitary Engineering.

4. Applied Chemistry ; (A) General Chemical Technology;

(B) Chemistry of Textiles (Bleaching, Dyeing,
Printing and Finishing) ; (c) Manufacture of Paper ;
(D) Metallurgy and Assaying ; (E) Brewing ; (F)
Electro-Chemistry.

5. Manufacture of Textiles.

6. Photography and the Printing Crafts.

7. Architecture and the Building Trades.

Students are required to pass an Entrance Examination in
subjects of general knowledge, or to produce evidence, satisfac-
tory to the Principal, of their attainments. Indian Students
are not required to take this Examination if they have passed
the Matriculation Examination of an Indian University.

The Entrance Examination is held twice each year,
namely, in July and in September.

A Certificate in Technical Science can be obtained after a
three years' course, but a special course of two years can be
taken in the Textile Department. In this case satisfactory
previous knowledge is necessary, and Students who have
passed examinations in an Indian Technical School, or have
had experience in a mill, can take advantage of this special
course.

The Fees for each Department are 20 guineas for each
complete session, payable in advance.

Students who intend to proceed to the Degree in the Faculty
of Technology, of Master or Bachelor of Technical Science
(M.Sc. Tech. or B.Sc. Tech.), must pass the Examination for
Matriculation of the University of Manchester, which dispenses
with the Entrance Examination of the School, or must present
its equivalent.

Further particulars of these Courses of Study will be found
in the Calendar published by the Municipal School of Tech-
nology, which can be obtained by application to the Principal.

COURSE WITH AN ENGINEER.

Engineering Students, in order to attain a knowledge' of
practical details of construction, &c., should serve as pupils on
the works or in the office of a Civil or Mechanical Engineer.
The Course is usually for three years, but a shorter time may
suffice if the Student has gone through any of the above
Courses of Study. The Fee with an Engineer is usually from
300 to 600 for a Course of three years.

LEATHERSELLERS' COMPANY'S TECHNICAL
COLLEGE, LONDON.

This College is equipped with every appliance requisite
for the practical Manufacture, Currying, Dyeing, and Finishing
of all kinds of leather. The instruction given covers the
whole field of Manipulative Procedure, which, starting from
the raw animal hide, finds its completion in the multifarious
Leathers that constitute the raw material for the numerous
leather- working industries.

The classes are divided into Day Division and Evening
Division Classes. In the former there are courses of lectures
in Tanning, Currying and Leather Dressing ; in applied
Chemistry and Leather Manufacture ; and in the principles
and practice of the dyeing and finishing of light leathers, and
the staining and finishing of heavy leathers.

The Session is made up of the winter, spring and summer
terms, and the courses of study in the Institute are arranged
to suit the varying requirements of the day students.

Students may enter for the full session of three terms, or
for one or two terms only. The fees for the full time course
Tanning, Currying and Leather dressing, and for the full-time
course in Leather Dyeing, Staining and Finishing are 12 I2S.
per term, and 31 los. per session. Term fees for one day, or

Ill

other period per week, whether for Term or Session, may be
had on application. The fee for the course of 25 lectures in
applied chemistry is 3 35. od.

In the Evening Division the Session is from September
to April, and Students are advised to go through courses of
study of two or three years' duration, such courses not
requiring attendance on more than two nights a week ; and
the fees for such attendance, either in the Leather, Tanning,
and Leather Dressing Department, or in the Leather, Dyeing,
Staining, and Finishing Department, not exceeding 153. a
term.

ARCHITECTURE.

The Royal Institute of British Architects has laid down a
regular course for pupils, with examinations to be passed for
membership. A good general education is required as a pre-
liminary before entering upon the course.

The Architectural Association affords facilities for the
study of Architecture. The Day School provides for two years
of study, and the pupils are then expected to enter Architects'
offices as articled pupils for a short period and attend the
Evening School, which provides for more advanced and con-
tinuous study. A four years' continuous evening course is also
available. Students in the Evening School may, if desired,
prepare for the Intermediate or Final Examination of the
Royal Institute of British Architects, and qualify for candi-
dates as Associates.

Students having passed through two years in the Day
School and two years in the Evening School, will be entitled
to complete exemption from the R.I.B.A. Intermediate Exami-
nation, if their work is approved by the Masters and the Board
of Examiners.

There are many colleges in Great Britain that have a
special two to three years' course for architecture, or the
student would do well to take a B.Sc. degree at one of the
Universities, and then become a pupil for three years under
some well-known and actively employed architect, for which
the usual premium is from fifty to one hundred guineas a year.

ART SCHOOLS.

There are many Art Schools in England at which instruc-
tion and practice can be obtained in Drawing, Painting,
Architecture, &c. Such Classes may be joined at the South
Kensington Museum and its affiliated Schools . of Art, at
University College, and King's College, London, or in connec-

112

tion with private studios. Several of the other institutions
above described give facilities for the study of Art.

LECTURES ON SEPARATE SUBJECTS.

Students who have time at their disposal beyond that
necessary for their special course of study, as is often the case
with those reading for the Bar, may be glad to attend lectures
and classes, on other subjects. These can be obtained at
several of the London Colleges, e.g., University College, King's
College, and School of Economics, such as History, Literature,
Political Economy, Languages, Philosophy, &c.

Attention is specially drawn to the course of Lectures for
Indian Students at the London School of Economics, on
p. 40.

Engineering Training.

IT is essential that all intending Engineers should (a) pass through
a course of scientific instruction at a Technical Institution, and (b)
spend at least two years in commercial engineering works.

All recognised authorities admit that the best possible plan is the
alternation of college training with works experience, commonly
known as the " sandwich system." This method gives the engin-
eering student early opportunities of applying his scientific know-
ledge to practical problems, and helps him to appreciate the value
of his academic training. With this end in view the Governors of
the Electrical Standardizing, Testing and Training Institution
(established 1889), secured the co-operation of a large number of
engineering firms of high standing, to supplement the training given
at the central technical institution they have erected in London.
This building, Faraday House, has well equipped workshops and
laboratories (open to the inspection of parents and guardians every
Friday afternoon, between 3 and 5) ; the technical staff is highly
qualified, and the tuition is augmented by lectures from professional
experts in the various subjects taught. In addition actual engin-
eering experience under commercial conditions is provided.

Terms begin in January, after Easter, and in September.

The syllabus will be sent on application to the Bursar, Faraday
House, Southampton Row, London, W.C.
