elor of Science in Agricultural. Civil, Electrical, and Mechanical Engineering, Bachelor of Business Administration and Bachelor of Vocational Agriculture. This instruction is assigned to the College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Agriculture and Horticulture, Business Adminis- tration, Engineering, Home Eco- nomics, and to the Division of Physical Education. The aim of the four-year course is to give as high a degree of pro- ficiency in some particular branch of learning as is possible without sacrificing the breadth, knowledge, and training which should char- acterize a well-rounded college ed- ucation. Courses leading to advanced degrees are available in the Grad- uate School. Majors leading to the Master of Science or Doctor of Philosophy degree may be taken in the following fields: Agronomy. Bacteriology, Botany, Chemistry, Economics, Psychology, Entomol- ogy, and Food Science. In addition, the following de- partments offer major work lead- ing to a Master of Science degree only: Agricultural Economics and Farm Management, Animal Hus- bandry, Business Administration, Dairy Industry, Education, En- gineering, Floriculture, Geology and Mineralogy, Home Econom- ics, Mathematics, Olericulture, Physical Education (Men), Pom- ology, Poultry Science, Psychol- ogy, Wildlife INIanagement, and Zoology. Students may enroll as candi- dates for the degree of Master of Arts in the following fields: Eco- nomics, English, History, Philos- ophy, and Sociology, and Ro- mance Languages. The Stockbridge School of Ag- riculture was organized at the University in 1918 under the name of The Two Year Course in Prac- tical Agriculture. Its purpose was to meet the demand for shorter courses in agriculture which might be taken by high school graduates who were unable to take the four- year college course. In 1928 the School was given its present name in honor of Levi Stockbridge, the first professor of agriculture at the LTni versify and its fifth president. This program trains men and women primarily for the practice of farming or associated agricultur- al industries. As the two-year pro- gram is now organized a student may choose any one of eleven vo- cational courses, and a diploma is awarded for satisfactory comple- tion of any two-year course. The University of Massachu- setts provides research and regula- tory services in the fields of Ag- riculture and Horticulture through its Experiment Stations. A fund of scientific knowledge has been accumulated and research workers carry on constant experimentation. 6]
