Electrical machinery (other than the main generating plant), electrical technology, the testing of materials and experimental mechanics are dealt with in the main building.
The larger part of the engineering equipment was the gift of British engineering firms.
Other buildings upon the estate include:-
(a) the Vice-Chancellor's Lodge
(b) Staff-Quarters
(c) the residential Hostels, and
(d) the University Union Building.
The cost of the building last mentioned (some $62,000) was met in approximately equal shares from University moneys and from public subscriptions, the entire cost of furnishing being met out of further subscriptions.
Unless exempted from residence (such exemption being ordinarily granted on the ground that the student's "manner of life is not such as is catered for in the hostels), every matriculated student is required to reside either in a University, or in a recognised Hostel.
The University Hostels are three in number-Lugard Hall, Eliot Hall, and May Hall.
Recognised Hostels are at present two in number-Morrison Hall, situate immediately above the University grounds and conducted by the London Missionary Society, and St. John's Hall, immediately opposite the front of the University, conducted by the Church Missionary Society.
Each student occupies a separate room or cubicle, and there are the usual Common rooms. Each University Hostel is in charge of a member of the staff, as resident Warden.
No University Hostel at present exists for women students-whose right to admission to the University was first recognised in 1921: but by the courtesy of the school authorities, arrangements have been made for their lodging in connection with St. Stephen's Girls College.
University fees for tuition and board amount to $550 per annum, enabling a student who lives carefully to meet the whole of his expenses with a sum of $1,000 per annum, as compared with a minimum sum of $2,500 per annum, besides travelling expenses, in the case of a Chinese student going abroad for his education.
The number of students attending lectures at the beginning of 1922 was 251 made up of 86 in the Medical Faculty, 48 in the Faculty of Engineering and 117 in the Faculty of Arts.
