INTRODUCTORY The courses in this Department are planned to give students (1) a general view of the place of the Household in society as a means of liberal culture; (2) training in the rational and scientific administration of the home as a social unit; (3) preparation to serve as teachers of Home Economics, Domestic Science, and Household Arts, or as social workers in institutions whose activity is largely expressed through Household Administration. The regular courses of the Department are supplemented by courses offered by instructors in other Departments, who will aid in the administration of the Department. In general the courses are open to Graduate and Senior College students and to Unclassified students who have had special preliminary training. Certain courses are also open as electives to Junior College students. In the case of students desiring to pursue a special line of work or to fit themselves for some particular field of activity, the instructors will give assistance in organizing courses of study. The work of this as of other Departments may be used under the rules of the University toward fulfilling the requirements for the different degrees. No special certificate is awarded, but an official statement of courses satisfactorily completed is granted on request. Opportunities are afforded for gaining practical experience in housekeeping, lunch-room management, marketing, household accounting, and teaching. In connection with the College of Religious and Social Science and the Settlements Association there are frequent occasions for active participation in such philanthropic work as supplements the instruction of the classroom. One Fellowship is assigned the Department for 1905-6. The Household Administration Club meets fortnightly to discuss important new literature, to present results of investigations carried on by instructors and students in the Department, and to hear specialists on topics not fully treated in the regular curriculum.
