MECHANICAL ENGINEERING It is the object of this course to give the student a thorough training in the theoretical principles underlying the science of machines and mechanics, and at the same time to enable him to become practically familiar with some of the numerous applications of these principles. INSTRUCTION The methods of instruction vary with the subjects under consideration. It is the aim to keep the student interested in his work, with the belief that it is only under such a condition that he will receive the maximum benefit from his work. A practical course in drawing and designing extends through the entire course of study. Shop or laboratory practice is also a part of each term's work. EQUIPMENT The equipment of this department is arranged for work under three heads—class and drawing-room work, mechanical engineering laboratory work, and shop practice. The facilities for class and drawing-room work are unexcelled.
