Mathematics	100 to 199
Physics	200 to 299
Chemistry	300 to 399
Geology and Mining	400 to 499
Applied Mathematics	500 to 599
Experimental Engineering	600 to 699
Civil Engineering including Field-work	700 to 799
Mechanical Engineering including Shop-work	800 to 899
Electrical Engineering	900 to 999

Lecture courses are listed in the first fifty numbers of all classes; laboratory
or practice courses are listed in the second fifty numbers of all
classes. The same numbers are used in schedules of lecture hours, laboratory
periods and examination days.

In addition to the courses listed above all candidates for degrees in
Engineering matriculated after June, 1919, will be required to take the following:

Freshman Year:

English Literature A3, including studies in rhetoric and composition

and a survey of English Literature with parallel readings and practice in
composition.

Junior Year:

Economics B1, including the principles of economics followed by a
study of their bearing upon present American conditions.

Senior Year:

Business Administration, including cost-accounting, engineering contracts
and specifications, and engineering economics.

Suitable readjustments have been made in the engineering curriculum
to allow for the introduction of these new courses.
