64 DIVISIONS 



For students who can afford the time and expense five-year engineer- 

 ing courses are offered as already tabulated above. The five-year en- 

 gineering courses contain a larger amount of general work (as distin- 

 guished from technical work) than the four-year courses, and also offer 

 opportunity for more technical work of advanced character. Students 

 who can afford to do so are advised to take the five-year work. 



Five-year courses have also been arranged in cooperation with the 

 Division of Industrial Science (at Ames), and in cooperation with several 

 outside Iowa colleges. See page 46. These cooperative five-year courses 

 entitle the student to receive two degrees, a Science degree at the end of 

 the first four years, and an Engineermg degree at the end of the five years. 



Graduates of Standard Colleges can secure an engineering degree at 

 the Iowa State College by two years additional technical work. See page 

 45. 



Engineering Degrees. The four-year and five-year engineering 

 courses lead to the degrees of Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, 

 Mechanical Engineering, etc. See page 62. 



Each five-year cooperative course leads to two degrees: first, Bachelor 

 of Science ; second, the same technical engineering bachelor's degree as a 

 regular four-year engineering course. See page 46. 



The professional engineering degrees of Agricultural Engineer, Archi- 

 tectural Engineer, Ceramic Engineer, Civil Engineer, Electrical Engineer, 

 etc., are given only for successful outside engineering practice following a 

 standard college engineering course. See page 72. 



The degree of Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering, Mining 

 Engineering, etc., is given only for completion of a resident graduate 

 course in engineering. See page 70. 



Besides the regular studies of the engineering courses, other agencies 

 contribute in important degree to the professional education of the en- 

 gineering students : 



Technical Lectures. Throughout the Freshman year all engineering 

 students meet for technical lectures delivered by members of the engineer- 

 ing faculty ; these lectures constitute a general introduction to the en- 

 gineering profession. 



Engineering Societies. After the Freshman year general professional 

 association and advance are promoted by the Engineering Societies, of 

 which there are several. 



American Society of Agriculural Engineers (Local Student Branch). 

 This meets every two weeks. All Junior and Senior agricultural engineer- 

 ing students are members. 



Crockets. This is an organization composed of Sophomore, Junior, 

 and Senior students in the department of Architectural Engineering and 

 Rural Structures. This society holds meetings every two weeks. 



Civil Engineering Society. This meets every two weeks. All Sopho- 

 more, Junior, and Senior civil engineering students are members. 



American Institute of Electrical Engineers (Local Student Branch). 

 This Society is a branch of the great national electrical engineering so- 

 ciety, and membership is open to Junior and Senior electrical engineers.
