-lung -'K AJQABQ --Q? DEAN LANDCJN collegeof The highly rated College of Engineering draws foreign students from many lands, be- sides those from every part of the United States. This college offers a five-year co-operative plan which enables the students to learn as they earn. The engineers alternate their time be- tween class work and employment in industrial organizations. Through this plan, the students gain the experience for the handling of prob- lems of both management and labor. They de- velop maturity of iudgment by handling the everyday problems with fundamentals learned in the classroom. This co-op plan is used to pro- vide basic training in the three main fields of engineering: mechanical, electrical, and civil. Since a knowledge of engineering does not provide a complete education, courses in liberal arts are required. Thus the College of Engineer- ing provides well educated and experienced graduates to fill the demands of a modern so- Ciety.
