INSTRUCTION

This course is intended to give young men the best possible preparation for work in the practical applications of electricity. The instruction is given by lectures, laboratory practice, designing, and drafting. The student is encouraged to read the best periodical literature concerning the theory and the applications of electricity. By keeping himself informed as to the best efforts of others in every department of his profession, it is hoped that he may be stimulated to independent thought and original investigation in his own field. To this end, a department reading room, at all times accessible to students in this course, has been established, where the leading American, English, French, and German journals of theoretical and applied electricity are kept on file. The instructors and students meet weekly to discuss the leading articles in current numbers of these journals. A critical discussion of one or more papers is required of each senior twice a month.
