weight it is designed to have in his year's work; and this entry should be followed by the signature of an instructor, who thereby expresses his approval of the special study proposed by the student, and undertakes to supervise it during the academic year, and to report upon it at the close of the year. The Courses of Research and Seminaries, for students who wish to do special work of an advanced character, are carried on under various plans of administration in the several Divisions and Departments, but always with the object of affording opportunity for systematic independent study. The Conferences and Clubs, several of which have purposes similar to those of the Courses of Research and Seminaries, are valuable auxiliaries of the Departments. The requirements to be fulfilled by a Graduate Student who wishes to be a candidate for a degree are stated elsewhere. (See pp. 495 ff.) The degrees of Ph.D. and S.D. rest on no enumeration of courses or record of merit in class work. Candidates for those degrees are required to have pursued advanced studies, suitable in character and amount to be accepted as preparation for the degree sought. These studies must occupy two or three years beyond the time devoted to more elementary studies; and at least one complete year's work in residence at the University is required. STUDIES OF THE LAWRENCE SCIENTIFIC SCHOOL. Instruction is given in the Lawrence Scientific School in the following thirteen programmes of study, and every student in the School must be registered in one of these programmes : 1. CIVIL AND TOPOGRAPHICAL ENGINeering. 2. MECHANICAL ENGINEERING. 3. ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING. 4. MINING AND METALLURGY. 5. ARCHITECTURE. 6. LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE. 7. FORESTRY. 8. CHEMISTRY. 9. GEOLOGY. 10. BIOLOGY. 11. ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY. 12. FOR TEACHERS OF SCIENCE. 13. GENERAL SCIENCE. These programmes are composed chiefly of courses of instruction selected from the list provided by the Faculty of Arts and Sciences (see pp. 358-446). The courses of study in several of the programmes are prescribed, but in some programmes options are allowed, while in 12 and 13 the work is elective after the first year. The studies of the first two years are chiefly such as belong naturally to the undergraduate period; and many of these are the same in all programmes. Courses in English, German, and French are required in all programmes; the courses prescribed in German and French being governed by the student's choice of studies offered for admission. The last two years are largely devoted, in most programmes, to advanced studies having a close relation to professional work. Two graduate courses are offered by the Department of Mining and Metallurgy. Each course presupposes completion of the four-year programme in Mining and Metallurgy. One course leads to the degree of Mining Engineer (M.E.), and the other to the degree of Metallurgical Engineer (Met.E.). The lists of courses for 1904-05 in the several programmes are stated below. A fulier statement of these programmes, with detailed accounts of the courses of study, will be found in the special catalogue issued by the Scientific School, and in the announcements issued by the several Divisions and Departments. Copies of these may be obtained by application to the Secretary of the School. DEGREE OF S.B. The degree of Bachelor of Science will be conferred on the student who (a) satisfies the admission requirements of the School and (b) completes satisfactorily one of the following programmes of study. The programme in which the degree is taken will be specified in the diploma. PROGRAMMES OF STUDY. 1. Civil and Topographical Engineering. Students of Civil Engineering are advised to take in addition to this programme the Shopwork Courses, Engineering 10a, 106, 10c, 10e.

Students in Harvard College who intend after graduation to study for the degree of Bachelor of Science in Mining and Metallurgy are advised, as far as possible, to anticipate the elementary work in Mathematics, Engineering, Geology, and Chemistry. The work of the first four years leads to the degree of Bachelor of Science (S.B.) in Mining and Metallurgy. FIRST YEAR. Engineering la; 1b; 1d; 3a; 4a; 4c; 4d. Physics B.* Chemistry 1. English A.
