Because the University has always taught engineering and we were under certain obligations to continue teaching it, it was finally decided to make an exception in our case and to allow us to teach Civil Engineering and Architecture. In view of the fact that the closing down of the Mechanical and Electrical Degree Courses is partly the result of the Colonial policy we are entitled to come under their general scheme for training engineers in the Colonies.
If, for example, this scheme has been accepted and students from the Colonies will in future, after obtaining their B.Jc, in Science locally, be given their two years of training in engineering in the U.K. partly. or wholly at government expense then there is a strong case for the inclusion of our students in this scheme.
For several reasons it is desirable that we should accept students in Electrical and Mechanical Engineering. The University may have to pay part of the cost of their final training in the U.K, and if so some provision should be made for this.
It is recommended that some provision be made for subsidising students who may be completing their training in the U.K. (No provision under this head will be needed until 1953 or 1954).
