It is the oldest and the laboratories are especially well equipped. During the past five years the scope of tin- work has been broadened and the courses now offered cover a large terri- tory. The first two years cover a general engii ring education, which consists mostly of Mechanical Drawing, Shop Work, Mathematics, Physic and other subjects of the same nature that tend to make the student familiar with the methods of construction and at the same time prepare him for the harder work that is to follow. During the last two years of the undergraduate course this theory is brought in the class room and supported bj the ample practice in the laboratory. Students can specialize in the following courses: Steam Engineering, Gas Engineering, Railway Mechanical and Heating and Ventilating. There is a broad field for the graduate in these branches of engine,. ring, and positions air :,| W , - open for the well-equipped man. Purdue can boast of her well-equipped Mechanical Laboratories. They contain both modern and th,. early types of apparatus and the ample accommodations offer many opportunities for experimental work. Through Hi., courtesy of many manufacturing companies, additions of new appa- ratus are constantly being made, which help to keep the laboratory up to date in every detail. Many important developments are taking place each year. The Flat Wheel Testing Machine has proven to be a great aid in determining fac- tors under varying conditions as exist in the practical world This ma- chine was designed by Dean Benjamin and constructed under his super- vision, and is used in the testing of car wheels. Many important tests have been made and companies are taking notice of the results that are being accomplished. The Belt ' Fisting Machine is another addition that is worthy of notice. The Master Car Builders ' Association has installed an apparatus and determinations are now being made of the transfer of heat in car wheels at different sp Is and pressures of the brake shoe. lie testing apparatus in the Gas Engineering Laboratory has brought to light many interesting facts that have proven a help to tie engineering world.
