and the methods of obtaining them from the ores; one term’s work iu { .
metallurgy is also required.
For students in Civil Engineering a course in Chemistry has been pro-
vided as follows: General Chemistry, one term; laboratory work ou the : S
metals, one term.
In the course of Mining Engineering instruction in Chemistry extends b
over aperiod of three terms, and includes the following subjects: General
Chemistry, the Chemistry of the Metals and Quantitative Analysis [H t`
addition, one term’s work in Metallurgy is required.
The instruction in Chemistry is also adapted as fully as possible to the
needs of students in Biology. Instruction in this branch extends over two
terms, tive times weekly. The first half of the time is devoted to the
study of Elementary Chemistry. This is followed by laboratory work inthe
afternoon upon those elements which are regarded as essential to animal g
and vegetable life.
