ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING BUILDING college of engineering During the first year of study in the College of Engineering most students take a common curricula administered by the General Engineering Department. Following the first year the undergraduate engineers specialize in aeronautical, cnemical. civil, electrical, mechanical, mining, metallurgical, or ceramic engineering. All of these curricula are accredited by the Engineers' Council for Professional Development, the princi- pal accrediting agency recognized by the engineering pro- fession in the United States. The courses of specialized study, following the first-year gen- eral course, consist largely of prescribed technical subjects and studies in the humanistic-social area. In addition to the four-year curricula, the College offers a course of study in industrial engineering for which a second bachelor's degree is awarded at the end of five years. After completing the first four years majoring in any of the branches of engineering, courses in industrial management and related subjects com- prise the fifth yoar. The teaching staff of the College is composed of approxi- mately 110 persons, chosen from all branches of the profes- sion. Almost every faculty member has had practical pro- fessional experience, in addition to advanced graduate study. When ranked with schools from all over the country, the Col- lege of Engineering of the University of Washington has achieved a very high status. DEAN HAROLD E. WESSMAN 30

In January, 1949, the school moved to its present location in the new Division of Health Sciences building where clinical and didactic instruction is boing given in all phasos of dentistry. The School of Dentistry is approved by the Council on Dental Educa- tion of the American Dental Association and by the American Asso- ciation of Dental Schools. The objective of the school is to prepare a selected group of students for the practice of dentistry by using the best educational techniques in this field. A typical predental student chooses electives, in addition to his dental courses, with the aim of broadening his background in human relationships and understanding. Student achievement is closely evaluated; thus promotion is determined by commendable fitness on the part of the student. Actual admission to the practice of dentistry in any state is conditional upon the candidate's meeting tho require- ments of the state board of dental examiners and passing the state dental examinations.
