ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS.

For admission to the Freshman Class in the Department of Engineering
the candidate must be at least sixteen years old. He must present a
certificate of honorable withdrawal from the school last attended, or other
valid proof of general good character. He must further satisfy the Dean of
the University as to his adequate preparation for the work by passing the
Entrance Examinations specified below or by the presentation of equivalent
certificates of preparation signed by the president of a recognized institution
of collegiate rank, or by the principal of an accredited high school.
The topics required for entrance and their values in units are as follows,
the unit being one year's work on the subject in an accredited high school:

                     

English A.—Grammar and Grammatical Analysis	1
English B.—Composition and Rhetoric	1
English C.—Critical Study of Specimens of Literature	1
Mathematics A1.—Algebra to Quadratics	1
Mathematics A2.—Quadratics, Progressions, Binomial Formula	1
Mathematics B.—Plane Geometry	1
Mathematics C.—Solid Geometry	½
Mathematics D.—Plane Trigonometry	½
History.—Ancient; Mediæval; English; American (any one)	1
Electives	7
Total	15

High school students who expect to study Engineering are advised to
include among their electives Physical Geography, Chemistry, Physics, Mechanical
Drawing, and Shop-work (valued at one unit each). Other electives
which may be offered are History of English and American Literature
(1 unit), History (4 units), Latin (4 units), Greek (3 units), German (4
units), French (4 units), Spanish (4 units), Botany (half unit), Zoölogy
(half unit).

A candidate may be admitted as a Conditioned Student in spite of some
deficiencies, provided these are not such as will impair the integrity of his
work. But no such candidate will be conditioned except upon subjects actually
taught in this university, nor will any candidate be conditioned on
more than two units; and all conditions must be absolved before the beginning
of the next session after initial registration. Courses taken for the
removal of entrance conditions may in no case be counted as part of the
work credited for any degree. No conditions will be allowed in English
A or B or in Mathematics A1, A2, or B.

A candidate may be admitted as a Special Student, without formal examination,
provided he is more than twenty years old, and gives evidence
of serious purpose and of fitness to pursue with profit the courses for
which he is registered. No special student may be a candidate for any degree.
No conditioned student may register later as a special student.

PROGRAMS OF STUDY.

The candidate who has satisfied the requirements for entrance as above
defined is matriculated as a student of Engineering and admitted to the
Freshman Class. The studies of this class comprise lecture courses in English,
Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, and Chemistry with associated
laboratory courses in Chemistry, Drawing, Shop-work and Field-work.

For advancement to the Sophomore Class the student must have completed
at least two-thirds of his Freshman work. Upon entering this class
he elects his specialty. The courses thereafter diverge according as the
student is an applicant for a degree in Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical,
or Mining Engineering. Programs of study for each degree are given
below.

The courses are so ordered that the specified entrance requirements are
adequate for the work of the Freshman Year. Each succeeding year presupposes
the completion of the work for all the foregoing years. Students
are advised to adhere strictly to the regular programs. The arrangements
specified in them have been carefully planned and are the best. Departures
from the curriculum will in almost every case produce conflicts in lecture
hours or laboratory periods and may cost the student a year's time. Haphazard
election is discouraged and in extreme cases will be prohibited. No
student will be registered for a course unless, in the opinion both of the
Dean and of the professor, his preliminary training has fitted him for the
profitable pursuit of that course.

Students are especially advised against the attempt to crowd too many
studies into their scheme of work, and are warned that admission to advanced
courses will be granted only to those who have adequate mathematical
and scientific training to profit by them. Men overloaded with
work, too great in volume or in difficulty for their powers, suffer inevitable
discouragement and incur almost certain failure.

Changes of classes with transfer of fees may be made, subject to the approval
of the Dean, within two weeks after the beginning of any term.
Thereafter such changes may be made only by special order of the faculty,
and then without transfer of fees.

Upon the completion of the four years' course as defined in any one
of the Programs of Study, the faculty will award to any student in regular
and honorable standing the appropriate degree of Civil Engineer, Mechanical
Engineer, Electrical Engineer, Chemical Engineer, or Mining Engineer.

COURSES OF INSTRUCTION.

The Subjects of Instruction in Engineering are grouped into classes,
each designated by a distinctive number for each term, the lecture and
laboratory courses being likewise differentiated. This grouping follows the

EXPENSES OF REGULAR STUDENTS.

The average annual expense of a student who pursues the regular
course in Engineering will be:

             

	NonVirginians	Virginians
University Fee	$ 40	$ 20
Tuition and Laboratory Fees (average)	170	108
Living Expenses (for nine months)	370	370
Books and Drawing Materials	30	30
Incidental Expenses (for nine months)	60	60
Total annual for average conditions	$670	$588

The charges for Tuition are uniform to all students, except that Virginians
are relieved of tuition on courses offered in the College, this exception
saving regular Freshmen from Virginia $85 and all other Virginia
students $55 each year in comparison with non-Virginians.

The laboratory charges are $5 per class for the year's course in Physics,
and $20 per class for a year's course in Chemistry. A deposit for
breakage of $5 is required for each laboratory course in Chemistry. The
fee for each practice course in the Engineering Department, Drawing, Engineering
Laboratories, and Shop-work is $5 per term for each course.
The fee for Field-work is $10 per term per course. These fees include
all charges for laboratory materials; but the student is held further responsible
for breakage.

The living Expenses include board, lodging, fuel and lights, servant
and laundry; the average is $9.50 per week, the minimum $7.50, and a reasonable
maximum $11.50. Books and Drawing Materials will cost about
$120 for the four-year course. Incidental Expenses ought to be kept within
modest bounds; the above estimate is sufficient; large allowances of pocket
money promote idleness and attract companions of the baser sort. No
allowances are included for clothing and travel, the expenses for which
vary too much to be introduced into any general estimate.

The charges payable on entrance are the University Fee, and the Tuition
and Laboratory Fees.

EXAMINATIONS AND REPORTS.

Oral examinations are held at the beginning of each lecture hour on the
topics of the preceding lecture. Written test papers are set monthly, or at
such interval as the professor may appoint. Absences from lecture except
by reason of sickness are not excused without a written leave from the
Dean. Class standing is determined on the basis of the oral examinations
and the written tests. Absence from the latter or failure to answer incurs
a zero grade. Absences from laboratory periods, however caused, must be
made up by special private arrangement with the instructor.

Written examinations are held at the end of each term on the entire
work of that term. The result of the examination combined with the student's
class-standing gives his term-grade. The pass-mark is seventy-five
per cent. Absence from the written term examination incurs a zero term-grade,
which may not be removed except by the passage of a special written
examination on the work of that term. Such special examinations are
granted only upon presentation of a written certificate from a reputable
physician that the student by reason of sickness on the day of the regular
examination was unable to attend.

Regular Reports are sent out at the end of every term to the student's
parent or guardian. These state for each course followed the term-grade
and the number of absences. Further comment may be added by the Dean
or the professor, if it appears probable that such comment would be helpful
to the student. Parents are urged to examine these reports carefully
and to exert such parental influence as may seem needed to establish and
confirm the student in habits of industry and order.

Special Reports are sent to parents at the end of each month for students
delinquent in attendance or studiousness and for delinquents only.
When a student is making steady progress and showing due diligence in his
work, only the regular reports are sent. The receipt of a special report is
evidence that, in the judgment of the faculty, prompt and pointed parental
admonition is urgently needed.

If in any class in the Department of Engineering a student fails to
make satisfactory progress, he is first admonished by the professor in
charge. In default of prompt and permanent improvement, he is next
formally warned by the Dean. If due amendment is then not immediately
effected, the student's name is dropped from the rolls of the Department,
on the ground that he is not accomplishing the purposes for which he
should have entered upon a University course of study.

REGULATIONS.

The following regulations, adopted to define the policy of the faculty,
are published for the information and guidance of the students:

1. Practice-courses as well as lecture-courses must be conducted under
the Honor System. The student who submits any work to be graded
is considered to submit it under pledge.

2. When the lecture-course and the associated practice-course are given
in the same term of the same year, no student will be admitted to examination
on the lecture-course until he has completed at least three-fourths of
the practice-course.

3. No student will be admitted to any practice-course unless he is at
the same time pursuing the associated lecture-course, or has already received
credit for the same.

4. No student will be admitted to the graduating examination on a

lecture-course unless he has been present at more than half the lectures in
that course.

5. In the technical courses in Engineering (i. e., courses not given in
the College) term-grades shall not be averaged; except that the term-grades
for Freshman Applied Mathematics may be averaged for the first-year
men only, provided no mark is below 65.

6. The pass-mark in every course is 75. Class standing is estimated at
20 points; the written examination at 80 points.

7. No student who fails to make 75 on term-grade shall be granted another
examination on the course until he has again attended lectures on
that course.

8. Special examinations are not given except by reason of sickness on
the day of examination, attested by the written certificate of a reputable
physician, or for other like providential causes. In every case they must
be validated by special vote of the faculty.

9. A student whose term-grades average less than 40 for all the courses
in which he is registered shall be at once dropped from the rolls. If his
average is above 40 with no mark above 65, he is placed on probation.

10. A student on probation, who in the next term makes less than 65 on
each and all his courses, shall be at once dropped from the rolls.

ADVANCED STANDING.

Under the elective system of the University of Virginia, a student who
has completed courses of college or university grade in other institutions of
learning on mathematical or scientific subjects may be excused from attendance
upon these courses by the Dean, with the advice and consent of
the professors in charge, and will then be registered for the more advanced
work.

In order to secure College Credit upon such courses toward a degree in
Engineering from this University, the applicant must show—

1. That the courses offered are coextensive with the corresponding
courses as given in the University of Virginia.

2. That his grades on them were not below the seventy-five per cent.
pass-mark of this University.

Such credits may be granted by the faculty upon the recommendation
of the Dean and the professors in charge; but are automatically revoked by
the failure of the student to pass in the more advanced courses in the related
topics.

The same rules apply to Credits on Summer School Courses; except
that for courses in the Summer School of this University the examination
questions must be prepared by the professor in charge of the regular
course, and the answers must be read and graded by him.

Credits on Practice-Courses in Drawing, Shop-work, or Field-work

may be granted to applicants who have gained in professional practice the
training which these courses represent. Such applicants must file with the
Dean proper certificates from the official under whom the work was done
and must in addition pass a practical test on the subjects for which credit
is desired. College credit is not granted for high-school work.

DRAFTING ROOMS.

The drafting rooms are abundantly lighted and are provided with solidly
constructed tables with locked drawers for instruments and materials.
Each student is assigned to a table and has a drawer for his exclusive use.
The regular Drawing Classes execute each one plate a week under the
supervision of the Instructors in Drawing. The more advanced students
have such additional drawings assigned by their respective professors as
are needed for the full development of the courses of study.

Careful attention is given to the training of the students in free-hand
lettering, in the conventional signs of mechanical drawing, in the proper
lay-out of drawings, and in neat and accurate execution. Exercises are required
also in tracing and in blue-printing, the rooms for which are conveniently
arranged and in close contiguity to the drafting rooms. While,
however, technical dexterity is demanded, the graphical method is taught
and used primarily as an indispensable instrument of research, the thoughtful
mastery of which is essential for the instructed Engineer.

The construction and theory of the Polar Planimeter, the Slide Rule,
and the Pantograph are carefully taught, and the student is trained in the
practical use of these appliances for the rapid and accurate production of
estimates and copies from finished drawings.

SHOPS.

The machine shop is provided with six first-class engine lathes, illustrating
the practice of the best American makers; with a planer, a shaper,
two drill presses, a universal milling machine (Brown & Sharpe), and a universal
grinder (same makers); also with a gas forge for tempering tools, a
cut-off saw for metal rods, an emery wheel, grindstone, and so on.

The wood shop is furnished with five small lathes, a large pattern-maker's
lathe, a jointer, a planer, a saw bench for slitting and cross-cutting,
a band-saw, a jig-saw, and a wood trimmer for pattern-making, six cabinetmaker's
benches, and an ample supply of hand tools.

The foundry has a cupola furnace for working cast iron, a brass furnace,
a core oven, and all needful accessories for moulding and casting;
the blast for the cupola is furnished by a special blower, driven by a small
high-speed steam engine.

The forge room is equipped with Buffalo down-draft forges; and the
necessary smith's tools; the draft is furnished by an engine-driven blower,
and the exhaust is operated by a fan driven also by the engine.

topography; plane tables; a sextant; together with an adequate supply of
leveling rods, telemeter rods, signal poles, chains, tapes, pins, and so on.
For hydraulic surveys a hook gauge and a current meter are provided. All
students are instructed in the theory and adjustments of the field instruments
and in their practical use in the field. They are also required to
make up their field-books in standard forms; to reduce their surveys and
execute all the necessary profiles, plans, and maps; and to determine
lengths, areas, and volumes both from the maps and from the original
notes. Polar planimeters are provided for facilitating such estimates, and
a pantograph for making reduced copies of finished drawings.

In recognition of the growing interest in Good Roads in Virginia and
the immense social and economic importance of the construction of such
roads in all parts of the commonwealth, the Faculty of the Department of
Engineering has rearranged the courses of instruction in this topic and
brought them together into the Spring Term, so as to form a special course

in highway engineering for the benefit of young men from Virginia who
wish to go into public highway work. To such Virginians, if adequately
prepared and recommended, free scholarships will be given. Application
should be made to the Dean, accompanied by recommendations from the
State Highway Commissioner or from the Board of Supervisors of the applicant's
county.

ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING LABORATORY.

The Scott Laboratory of Electrical Engineering.—This laboratory was
initially equipped and endowed by Mrs. Frances Branch Scott, of Richmond,
Va., as a memorial to her late son, an alumnus of this University.
During the year 1910 the equipment was substantially increased through
the generosity of the Hon. Charles R. Crane, of Chicago, Ill., a friend of
the University. During 1912 still further substantial additions were made,
consisting of measuring instruments, auxiliary control apparatus, and more
particularly a steam-turbine-driven three-phase alternating-current generator
with exciter and control switchboard.

In addition to full sets of electric meters with the applicances for testing
and calibrating them, galvanometers of the best modern types, standard
cells and resistances, standard condensers, and other pieces of apparatus
for minor tests, this laboratory contains numerous pieces of the very best
construction. Such are the Wolff potentiometer, the Seimens and Halske
Thomson double bridge, the Koepsel permeameter, the Duddell double projection
oscillograph, the Station photometer with Lummer-Brodhun screen,
the Carey-Foster bridge and others. For the work in machine-testing
there are a number of direct-current generators and motors, series, shunt
and compound, an interpole motor, a double current generator, a two-phase
alternator, a General Electric experimental test set for alternating
current, comprising a generator furnishing single, two, three, six or twelve-phase
current, and, in addition, offering three types of induction motors
with all necessary starting and controlling devices, a single-phase repulsion
motor, a two-phase induction motor, two three-phase induction motors,
several pairs of constant voltage transformers, a constant current transformer,
frequency meters, power factor indicator, synchronism indicator,
ground detector and the auxiliary apparatus used in testing these machines.
The laboratory has been arranged with a system of universal plug and
receptacle-connections to facilitate the setting up of all experimental combinations.

BUILDINGS.

The buildings devoted wholly or in part to the work of the Department
of Engineering are the following:

The Mechanical Laboratory is the main seat of the instruction in technical
studies. It is 180 by 70 feet and contains on the main floor the Dean's
office and the offices of the other professors; the main lecture-room; the

laboratory of electrical engineering; and the drafting-room for the First
and Second-Year students. Above are a smaller drafting-room for advanced
students, and blue-print and photographic rooms. Below on the
ground floor are another classroom, the testing laboratories, the wood
shop, the machine shop, apparatus and storerooms, the toolroom, and the
students' lavatory.

The Power House is a single-story building 110 by 40 feet. In addition
to the University boiler plant and the electric lighting plant, this contains
the foundry and the forge-room. The boiler plant consists of two horizontal
return-tubular boilers, each of 140 horse-power. The lighting plant
consists of three electric generators directly connected to high-speed engines,
the respective capacities being 25, 50, and 75 kilowatts. The whole
plant is available for purposes of instruction, study and experiment.

The Geological Museum is 120 by 50 feet. It is a three-story building.
The main floor is devoted to the very extensive geological collection of
specimens, charts, relief maps, and so on. The gallery above contains an
equally good collection of minerals and numerous models of typical crystallographic
forms. The upper floor contains the lecture-rooms and the laboratories
of Economic Geology. In the basement are stored subsidiary collections
and new material accumulated in more recent geological surveys.

The Physical Laboratory faces the Mechanical Laboratory on the opposite
side of the quadrangle, and has almost the same proportions. The
main floor contains the lecture-room, the professors' offices, the laboratory
of experimental physics, and the storeroom for the very large collection
of apparatus used in the lectures. On the ground floor is the laboratory of
theoretical electricity, the storage battery room, a well-equipped shop for
the repair and manufacture of apparatus, and smaller rooms for the work
of graduate students.

The new Chemical Laboratory was opened for use in September, 1917.
In this fire-proof structure all the work in Chemistry is assembled. The
floor area provided is about 30,000 square feet. The lecture-rooms seat
classes of 300, 75 and 25 students. The laboratories assigned to General
Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Qualitative Analysis, Quantitative Anaylsis,
and Physical Chemistry contain 110, 60, 40, 30, and 20 desks. Altogether
by dividing classes into sections, 600 students may be accommodated.
Smaller private laboratories are provided for research workers. Large
stock rooms communicating by elevators with the several floors contain
ample stores of chemical supplies. The 5,000 volumes of books and bound
sets of journals constituting the Departmental Library of Chemistry are
so housed as to be accessible to both teachers and students.

McINTIRE SCHOOL OF FINE ARTS.

   

Fiske Kimball, M.Arch., Ph.D.	Professor of Art and Architecture
Stanislaw John Makielski	Assistant in Art and Architecture

INSTRUCTION IN ARCHITECTURE.

Instruction leading to the professional degree of Bachelor of Science
in Architecture is offered in the University by the McIntire School of
Fine Arts in collaboration with the Department of Engineering and with
the other academic schools. This work is under the administrative jurisdiction
of the College, and the rules of the College regarding entrance requirements,
fees, choice of courses, and requirements for degrees are
those which apply in it.

Thus the entrance requirements are fifteen units, of which three
must be in English, two and one-half in Mathematics, one in History, and
two units in each of two Modern Languages. Solid geometry and trigonometry,
though not made the subject of entrance conditions, are absolutely
required in the course of the work, and if not presented for entrance
must be taken at once in college—if necessary in addition to the number
of hours required for the degree.

The fees are as follows: University fee, for non-Virginians, $40; for
Virginians, $10. Tuition fee, for non-Virginians, $130; for Virginians,
nothing, except in technical courses in the Engineering Department an
amount pro rata of its fees, and in the courses in architectural design (Architecture
B2 and C1) $40 each. The total of tuition and laboratory fees
for the four years shows an annual average as follows: for non-Virginians,
$180; for Virginians, $75.

QUARTERS AND EQUIPMENT.

The School of Fine Arts occupies the building at the south end of West
Range, which has been specially adapted to its use. It comprises a lecture
and exhibition hall 35 by 55 feet, an architectural draughting room, a
studio for freehand drawing and painting, with dark rooms and offices. A
special fund for equipment given by Mr. McIntire has made generous provision
for casts, books, photographs, and lantern slides. The casts include
geometrical models, motives of ornamentation, architectural elements, elements
of the figure, and a number of full figures from the antique, as well
as fine modern figures. Beside the books on architectural history and on
building construction kept at the University Library an exceptional departmental
collection of works valuable for reference in architectural design
and detailing, is provided in direct connection with the draughting room.
Among the numerous important sets of folios are the Grands Prix de
Rome, Médailles des concours d'architecture, Monuments antiques, Fragments
antique, Edifices de Rome moderne, The Georgian Period, Work of
McKim, Mead and White, etc., etc. These are supplemented by some

three thousand photographs, and by the collection of five thousand lantern
slides, as well as by a number of envoi drawings by former holders
of the Rotch Travelling Scholarship.

HISTORY AND ENVIRONMENT.

The work offered re-establishes the instruction outlined in the first
curriculum of the University, 1818, the earliest proposal for instruction in
architecture in any American university. An unrivalled background is
provided for it by the buildings and environment of Charlottesville; the
University group, with its old buildings specially designed to furnish examples
of the various orders "as specimens for the architectural lecturer,"
its new buildings designed by Stanford White; the works of sculpture by
Houdon, Ezekiel, Bitter, Borglum, Keck, Shrady, and Aitken; the exhibitions
of paintings brought to the University with part of the income of
the McIntire fund.

Inquiries from prospective students of Architecture regarding choice
of electives, transfer of credits from other departments or other institutions,
etc., may be addressed to
