bnewum wn-Muxugng, STUDENT TEACHERS have the opportunity to work in real classroom situations. STUDENT TEACHER gives individual help. teaching The Elementary-Junior High School Division of Wisconsin State College and Institute of Technology headed by Dr. Keith R. Woods qualifies a student With a Bachelor of Science Degree to teach in one of these fields: kindergar- ten, primary grades, intermediate grades or junior high school. Students in the Elementary Division must meet the general requirements for a degree, but do not have to acquire an academic major or minor. The student in Junior High education must obtain a major in an academic area. The student in the Secondary Education Divi- sion who graduates With a Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Arts Degree is prepared to teach in high school. The Secondary Education Divi- sion is headed by Dr. E. G. Harrell. Students in both these fields of education are required to teach before graduation. These prospective teachers may observe, participate, and experiment in the Edgar G. Doudna Lab- oratory School under the supervision and guid- ance of an approved master teacher.

ENGINEERING STUDENTS do field work in seismic soundings. ENGINEERING THE OLDEST FACE at Pioneer State . . . The Division of Technology offers thorough and extensive training in the fundamental sci- ences that may qualify a student for an engin- neering degree. In the early courses, the tech- nology curriculum provides a strong foundation in the basic sciences. Direct application of these sciences is presented in later courses. Nearly all classroom activities in mining and in civil engineering are located in the Techno- logy building. Organizations in the Division of Technology are the Civil Engineering Socie- ty and the American Institute of Mining En- gineers. The purpose of the Arts and Science Division is to lay a foundation for a full and satisfying life and to prepare students for a profession. Among those professions having their beginning in Arts and Science are commerce, law, medi- cine, dentistry, forestry, nursing, pharmacy, medical technology and veterinary medicine. Students entering these professions have en- rolled in a pre-professional curriculum in this division and will further their education at other colleges or universities of their choice.
