Special Students. While the regular undergraduate course is recommended in preference to any other, yet, in cases where it is impossible to follow it throughout, students of mature years possessing the necessary preparation may concentrate their entire attention upon mining, metallurgy, and assaying, together with the subjects directly related. A course of this sort lasting a year is the shortest from which any advantage can be expected. Two or more years so spent will be found to be far more profitable. Appli cants for special courses should arrange to enter college promptly at the opening of the academic year, and should in advance consult the Professor of Mining with regard to the necessary preparation. 5 GRADUATE COURSES. Students desiring to pursue advanced or special work after graduation, will be afforded every facility that the libraries, laboratories, and collections of the University offer. To obtain the professional degree of MINING ENGINEER, the candidate must be a graduate of the College of Mining of this University, or give evidence satisfactory to its Faculty of having successfully pursued a course of study equivalent to its regular undergraduate course. He must also pass a satisfactory examination in the following subjects: Mining, ore-dressing, petrography, economic geology, thermodynamics (elements), construction of mining machinery, and political economy. He must have had at least one year of actual practice in the field in the course chosen, and must show, by an original memoir upon some subject bearing upon this profession, his power to apply his knowledge to practice. This degree will not be given earlier than three years after graduation. A candidate for the degree of METALLURGICAL ENGINEER must pass an examination in the following subjects: Metallurgy, ore-dressing, assaying and analysis, thermodynamics (elements), construction of furnaces and metallurgical machinery, and political economy. In all other respects the conditions are the same as those required for the degree of Mining Engineer. COLLEGE OF CIVIL ENGINEERING. FACULTY. President KELLOGG; Professor STRINGHAM, Dean, Professor of Mathematics; Professors CHRISTY, Metallurgy; HESSE, Hydrostatics; LE CONTE, Geology; RISING, Chemistry; SLATE, Physics and Analytic Mechanics; SOULE, Civil Engineering; WINN, Military Science; Associate Professors ARDLEY, Drawing and Topography; EDWARDS, Mathematics; HASKELL, Mathematics; LAWSON, Mineralogy and Geology; WHITING, Physics; Assistant Professors KOWER, Instrumental Drawing; LEUSCHNER, Astronomy and Geodesy. UNDERGRADUATE COURSE. The requirements for admission to this college are: (1) English, (3) Algebra, (4) Geometry, (5) Government of the United States, (11) Physics; either (6) Latin or (14) English or (15) French or German; and, until May, 1897, one of the subdivisions of (12) - for which see page 43. But beginning with May, 1897, two of the subdivisions of (12) will be required; namely, (a) Solid and Spherical Geometry, and (b) Chemistry. The requirements for graduation from this college, with the degree of B.S., are set forth in the following scheme: Freshman Year. 1st Term. 2d Term. MATHEMATICS-Elements of Analysis PHYSICS-Elementary Course: Lectures and Laboratory. 3 units. 5 units. 5 units. 3 units. 3 units. 2 units. Laboratory Experiments and Qualitative DRAWING Free-hand and Instrumental, and Descriptive Geometry At the beginning of the Junior year, the general course in Civil Engineering divides into three separate branches, between which the student must choose; namely, (1) Railroad Engineering, (2) Sanitary Engineering, and (3) Astronomy and Geodesy. I. RAILROAD ENGINEERING. MECHANICAL ENGINEERING-Analytic Mechanics CIVIL ENGINEERING-Railroad Surveying and Economics Field Practice and Mapping Framed Structures.

CIVIL ENGINEERING-Framed Structures. 3 units. THESIS-A problem or investigation in some engineering subject.... Totals 16 units. 16 units. The undergraduate course in Civil Engineering comprehends two great divisions of work: First, surveying, geodesy, practical astronomy, railroad location, topography, mapping, etc., which may be called field engineering; and second, civil engineering construction, embracing the scientific methods of designing and constructing roofs, bridges, sanitary systems, retaining walls, dams, roads, canals, railway structures, etc. As much time as is practicable, including a summer school in surveying, is given to the first division of work, with the intention of rendering the student skillful and ready in the use of the instruments and methods adopted by the best field engineers. Full theoretical discussion is given to the different topics in constructive engineering; and practical application and illustration are given at length in the engineering draughting rooms. GRADUATE COURSES. To graduate students are extended the abundant facilities for advanced or special work which the libraries, laboratories, and collections of the University afford. Graduate students in astronomy have the privilege of residence at the Lick Observatory, under the regulations governing such residence. See page 150. To obtain the professional degree of CIVIL ENGINEER the candidate must be a graduate of the College of Civil Engineering of this University, or he must give evidence satisfactory to its Faculty of having successfully pursued a course of study equivalent to its regular undergraduate course. He must pass a satisfactory examination in the following subjects: Railway construction, principles of equipment and administration, railway tunnels, foundations in dry and wet soils or under water, principles of construction of walls, arches, domes, etc., standard authors upon river and harbor engineering, practical astronomy, drawing and designing of engineering structures, history (elective alternatively with English), political economy (elective alternatively with English). He must have practiced his profession for not less than one year, and he must present an acceptable original memoir on some professional subject. This degree will not be given earlier than three years after graduation. |
