The General Science Course I. THOUGH being oiu ..f tho ikw- tst courses at Tech, tin- Cicmr.il Scitiuf Course, which was estab- lished in 1923, lias proven one of tile most |)o))ular and has grown considerably in the first few years of its existence. It is (•s])ecially designed for those students who desire a general education before specializing in any particular field of engineering. This rourse makes optional to the student subjects in English. Business Administration, Math- ( iiiatiis. Modern Languages, History, Psy- luilogy. Keonomics. and the Engineering subjects. It differs from the regular engin- eering courses in that many of the technical subjects are omitted and after the sophomore ear the larger ])art of the schedule is elective to the student. The degree awarded is Bach- ilor of .Science. Wii.i.iAM ' kkxo.n Skii.es. B..S.. .M.. .

There is the two j ' ear course offered which leads to a certificate of ))roficiency, and a four year course which leads to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Industrial Education.

The Textile Engineering Course UK to tliL- iiiiiiortaiice of tlic textile indiistiy in the South, and tlie rapid iii-owtii ill tlie past few years, the textile engineering course at Tech siiould i)rove — as it does — the choice of the many men of the South entering college. A first elass textile school having proven vir- tually a necessity to the South, it was in 1899 that the first instruction in this hranch of engineering was given in the Soutli, here at (jeorgia Tech. The department is equipped for performing practically every process of cotton manipulation from the cotton field to the finished fahric. The student in textile engineering here at Tech is given a well rounded education in the other phases of engineering offered in the various courses. Clarence Bernard Seal, Sc.D.

This course extends over the period of five years, during which time the student sjiends alternately four weeks in school and four weeks in practical engineering work in the shops of Atlanta and neighboring cities within the radius of three hundred miles. The Co-operative course offers three options; General Engineering, Textile Engineering, and Civil Engineering. This course is designed to equip the student for a position in cither the designing, pro- duction, sales, or executive department of industry. This co-operative system offers a wide variety of practical training and many lines of specialization and has proven very popular since its birth. J.vMES Ekskixe McD.vn ' iel, A.B.. M.A. A.B..
