GENERAL PLAN OF THE COURSE... THE Department of Mining Engineering and Metallurgy was organized at the foundation of the Institute, being desig- nated in the first annual catalogue (1865-66) as the Depart- -ment of Geology and Mining. The object in view from the first was to give, together with a good general training, the scientific and engineering knowledge requisite for entering successfully upon the practical work of mining and metal- lurgical engineering. The plan of study has been consist- ently maintained up to the present time, although, to meet later demands from the profession, the details have been considerably changed. Its main feature is that the student is given continuous laboratory practice, not only in engi- neering work, but in other scientific studies. This is in- tended, not merely to supplement lectures and recitations in the classroom, but to teach the student to observe and think for himself, and thus to become independent and creative in his professional work. The regular course extends through four years, with two options. Option I is a general course in Mining En- gineering and Metallurgy, and fits the student for any spe- cial professional line that he may afterwards choose. Op- tion 2 is a course especially adapted for those who wish to devote themselves to the Metallurgy of Iron and Steel, particular emphasis being laid on mechanical engineering in combination with chemical-studies. A student who can devote five years to his course may take both options. A student wishing to devote himself principally to the chemical side of metallurgy may do so by taking the Met- allurgical Option of the Course in Chemistry, II. 6 SCHEDULE OF STUDIES. FIRST YEAR.

The studies given in the preceding schedule in the order in which they are taken embrace literary, general scientific, and engineering subjects. (a) Literary Studtes. Literary studies are carried on during the entire course. They are at first of a general character, embracing mod- ern history, literature, and composition; later these are re- placed by industrial history, economics, and business law. Both French and German receive due attention during the first three years. In the fourth year the student applies the knowledge he has acquired in these languages to the systematic reading of French and German technical pe-. riodicals (““Memoirs’’). Leading papers are transcribed in abstract into English and read before the class, where they are discussed as to the matter they contain and later cor- rected as to form, with the codperation of the Depart- ment of English, (0) General Sctentific Studtes. The student is thoroughly grounded in the three scientific studies, mathematics, physics, and chemistry, and in mineralogy and geology in their connection with mining. Instruction in pure mathematics closes in the second year with integral calculus. Physics, as a general study, takes up the entire second year and part of the third with lec- tures, recitations, and laboratory work. Chemistry runs through the entire course, and embraces inorganic chem- istry, theoretical chemistry (including thermo-chemistry, electrolysis, and theory of®solution), analytical chemistry (with special attention to volumetric methods and gas anal- ysis), and the dry assaying of ores and metallurgical prod- ucts in minute quantities by the blowpipe, and in larger amounts in crucibles, scorifiers, etc. In the study of min- eralogy in the second year the three branches, crystallogra- 8 phy, descriptive mineralogy, and determination of minerals by physical and chemical tests, are systematically taught, with attention to rock- and ore-forming minerals. The am- ple working collections of the Institute are supplemented by those of the Boston Society of Natural History. At the close of the summer session the student can take part in short excursions made to the many localities of mineralog- ical interest in New England. The course in geology for students in mining engineering, given in the third year, is preceded by that in physical geography (including dynamic geology), and embraces structural geology (including petrol- ogy) and historical geology. Economic geology is included in the lectures on mining engineering, while fieldwork (in- cluding geological reconnoissance) forms an important part of the Summer School of Mining. | (c) Engineering Studies. It is essential for a student in mining and metallurgical engineering to acquire familiarity with certain of the civil, mechanical, and electrical engineering studies; and the dif- ficulty of arranging a satisfactory mining and metallurgical course lies in rightly proportioning the three auxiliary lines to the two principal ones. Of the civil engineering studies ‘two are essential to the satisfactory pursuit of mining en- gineering, viz., surveying and hydraulic work. Surveying is taken up in the second year. It is taught by lectures, recitations, fieldwork, and drawing; the student learns how to use the leading instruments, such as level, transit, plane- table ; the survey notes taken in fieldwork are put on paper in the drawing room. The practical work in term time is supplemented by surface and underground surveying dur- ing the Summer School. Hydraulic engineering, so far as it finds application in placer mining and in hydraulic ma- chinery, forms part of the regular lectures on mining in the third and fourth years. 9 Mechanical Engineering (mechanism, steam engineer- ing) and Strength of Materials are studied systematically during the second and third years of the second option. The aim is not so much to teach the student construc- tion, as the intelligent application and use of the finished boiler, engine, and machine. In Electrical Engineering the student, in addition to the general course in electricity and magnetism, has spe- cial lectures on dynamos and motors in connection with testing, and is. given a short laboratory course in electrical measurements, The applications of electricity to the vari- ous mining and metallurgical operations are discussed in connection with these subjects. Mining Engineering begins in the third and continues through the fourth year. It is taught by lectures, recita- tions, and laboratory work, and is supplemented by the Summer School of Mining. The subject is introduced by a detailed course on ore deposits, supplementing the general lectures on geology and giving them their practical bearing for the miner. Then are taken up, in their regular order, prospecting, breaking ground, supporting excavations, and mining-tools and methods. These are followed by discus- sion of hauling, hoisting, drainage, ventilation, lighting, transportation of men and, lastly, accidents. Mining proper closes in the third year with a full treatment of mine- surveying and a general discussion of mining law. In the fourth year, ore-dressing and coal-washing are made sub- jects of special study in the mining laboratory. In the Metallurgical studies, laboratory work is done on parallel lines with the lectures and recitations, so that the student is familiarized at the same time with metallur- gical operations. Hence non-ferrous metallurgy and met- allurgy of iron and steel precede general metallurgy, which is given at the close of the year, and furnishes an excellent review of metallurgy as a whole. The non-ferrous metals discussed are lead, copper, silver, gold, platinum, quick- IO silver, zinc and cadmium; tin, arsenic and antimony; bis- muth, nickel and cobalt; uranium, tungsten, aluminum. Iron and steel are treated with considerable detail, owing to their importance. In general metallurgy, fuels and re- fractories are discussed fully, while the other subjects are treated in a more general way, serving to compléte and illustrate the final summing up of the details previously taught. Thus the physical and chemical properties of metals and their compounds, as well as metallurgical proc- esses in general, receive more attention than do metallur- gical apparatus and products. The leading mechanical and chemical operations in metallurgy are carried out by the students in the laboratory during the fourth year. © IV. THE MINING AND METALLURGICAL LABORATORIES. The John Cummings Laboratories of Mining Engineer- ing and Metallurgy were the first of their kind in the world, and have been the model for many others since established, The purpose of the laboratories is twofold —to illus- trate the lecture instruction and to teach the student how to carry out mechanical and chemical working tests on ores, fuels, and furnace materials. The size of the appa- ratus is such as not to require too much material and time, or too much bodily exertion from the student, while at the same time results of real value are obtained. The machines are so arranged that they can be worked alone or in con- nection with others, and with variable speed, and the dif- ferent parts of a machine are so put together that they can be readily taken apart and single parts interchanged, when the experiment requires such a modification. The different pieces of apparatus and their location are shown in the plan-drawing of the laboratory on pages 12 and 13. The mechanical work is carried on with ore- dressing machinery, and the chemical work with metallur- EI gical apparatus. In either class of work the student, hav- ing received a suitable amount of ore for treatment, and having ascertained by mineralogical, chemical, and other tests its composition and value, proceeds with the experi- ment, measuring, weighing, and assaying, and recording each step accurately in his report. The results are, as a rule, of practical value in the concentration of ores and in such metallurgical operations as roasting, amalgamating, leaching, electro-deposition, etc. Those in smelting are apt to com- pare unfavorably with large-scale work. Nevertheless, stress is laid on smelting in the laboratory for the reason that in no other way can a student learn the principles on which smelting operations are based, and how to control them by chemical analysis, so well as by doing it himself under con- ditions where time and money do not have to be taken into consideration. The Department has an ample technical working L1- brary, by the use of which the student may become famil- lar with the results obtained by the best investigators and writers in his own line of work. - ded te ASA amis sly 1 = I2 KEY TO PLAN OF LABORATORY.

THE SUMMER SCHOOL. The aim of the Summer School is to give the student some familiarity with geological fieldwork and with large- scale mining and metallurgical operations. It generally occupies the month of June. Metallurgy is made promi- nent on the alternate years, and mining and geology on the others. In the Summer School of Mining the class with its in- structors usually locates at one mine and makes a com- plete study of it. In order to do this systematically the students are divided into four squads, each of which in turn devotes about a week to each of the following classes of work, viz., geological fieldwork with plane-table surveying ; practical underground work; underground surveying with transit and level; and surface work, including drawing of machinery and visits to neighboring mines and mills. By this arrangement the student takes the full course system- atically, and, by aid of the general meetings of the whole class, becomes acquainted with all that the region has to offer. | In the Summer School of Metallurgy, which lasts about three weeks, the class visits some of the leading smelting centers of the country. Students are taught how to inspect industrial establishments systematically, how to take notes on what they see, and how to write these in such a clear and concise way that they may be of use when referred to later. 7 . At the close of the Summer Schools of Mining and Metallurgy the students are given facilities to visit and study many of the localities of mineralogical interest in New England under the guidance of an instructor.
