THE SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING Texas A. M. College has taken its place among the greater sources of engineer¬ ing talent for young engineers largely through the efforts of Dean F. C. Bolton of the School of Engineering. So well-balanced are the courses offered by the School of Engineering that it is purposed no engineering student can graduate without a general knowledge of all types of engineering. This general technical education along with the specialization in a par¬ ticular field enables the graduate to begin his cho¬ sen work with a solid foundation. Represented in the School of Engineering are the following departments: Architecture, Chemi¬ cal Engineering, Civil Engineering, Electrical En¬ gineering, Mechanical Engineering, Municipal and Sanitary Engineering, Textile Engineering, Petro¬ leum Production Engineering and Drawing. Dean Bolton, besides being Dean of the School F C Bolton Engineering, is also the Dean of the College.

SCHOOL OF VOCATIONAL TRAINING Dean C. H. Winkler of the School of Vocational Teaching has developed one of the most up-to- date teaching institutions in the country. This School prepares students for teaching in many fields; however, most of the graduates become teachers of vocational agriculture, county agents, or officials of the State in other phases of extension service. Students gather much practical work by teaching in the Training Schools located on the campus. Graduates of the Agricultural and Industrial Education courses meet the requirements of the State and Federal Boards for Vocational Educa¬ tion to teach Vocational Agriculture and Trades under the Smith-Hughes Act. Courses offered in this school include: Agricultural Education, Rural Educa¬ tion, Industrial Education, and Industrial Arts. C. H. Winkler
