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. EQUIPMENT The equipment of this department is arranged for work under three heads—class and drawing room work, laboratory work, and shop practice. The drawing rooms are equipped with modern desks, boards, filing cabinets, card indexes, reference books, catalogues, odontographs, gear charts, tables, etc. In the cabinet rooms are kinematic models and sectioned steam specialties, many of which were donated by the manufacturers. The steam engineering laboratory is in the Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Laboratory. It contains the lighting and power plant of the University, consisting of one 50 horse-power Ideal single-cylinder, high-speed engine,
