IID ' A .-.- - l -N - 1- 1 QQ! Qi Pl -V Tlhie College off Engineering is first of all a school for the training of engineers, and its woirlc must be judged largely by the success of its grad- uates. A very important function of the college, but secondary to tha-t of instruction, is research in the applied sciences re-lalting to practical en- gineering problems. The Work of the pirofessionial engineer is rapidly becoming more im-po-rftant in 'the Welfare of the stzute and the nation. The En- gineering College must take the responsibility for the training of, not engineers but men who have the capacity to become engineers. The engineer- inig curriculum is carefully selected with 'these re- quirements in view, and emphasis is placed upon those subjects which serve as fundamental tnain- ing, rather than those that deal only With ques- tions of practice. These latter can be more read- Dean Votey ily randi effectively learned in actual practice t'h-an in school, and the short period of four years can- not be given up to Work thaxt can rnoire proiiftiably be learned outside. Pnofiicienicy in engineering, as in any other pirofessiioin, requires many years of seasoning in actual pnaiotical Wo-rk. 25 JI IU
