The classes will commend themselves to the wealthy section of the Chinese Community as a suitable object for endowment, but prospective donors will be discouraged if the Government shows reluctance to meet in full the liabilities undertaken when the classes were instituted.
DIPLOMAS AND CERTIFICATES
33. If the classes are to attract students and take a place among local educational institutions, students who qualify in any branch of study should be granted diplomas or certificates. At the close of the first year, certificates were granted to all students who passed the annual examination, whether the course of study was completed or not. We are of the opinion that the issue of a yearly certificate would lead to the diploma to be issued at the close of the course losing in importance and to students ceasing to attend before they had completed the full course. We recommend that diplomas should be issued in Civil, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, and in Chemistry. To obtain a diploma in Civil Engineering, the student would be required to qualify in Building Construction, Applied Mechanics, Practical Mathematics, and Levelling and Surveying. In Mechanical Engineering, the course would include instruction in Machine Drawing, the Principles of Steam, Applied Mechanics, and Practical Mathematics. In Electrical Engineering, the student would take the same course as in Mechanical Engineering, with the addition of a course in Electricity. To obtain a diploma in Chemistry, the student would have to qualify in Chemistry, Physics, and Practical Mathematics. In each subject, a certificate would be issued when the course was completed. In the Commerce section, we do not recommend the issue of a diploma, but a certificate will be granted on the completion of the course in any of the subjects included in the section. In all courses, to be considered qualified to obtain a diploma, a student must have made fifty per cent of the possible number of attendances.
