Book excerpt: Excerpt from President's Report for the Year Ending 30th June, 1920 Recognition of the tendencies and the probable demands of the country has during the year brought various temporary changes in curriculum, which it is expected will become fixed next year after further investigation and trial. Apart from those changes within departmental scope, there have been various additions with a view to broadening the nature of the engineering education not only to better fit graduates for entering wider fields of the engineering profession, but to provide them with that broader education so essential in all professions. The crowd-ed condition which these large numbers created in lecture rooms and laboratories has fully justified the new building which is now in course of erection for the Electrical Engineering and Applied Mechanics Departments, and it is hoped that this may be available for the coming year. But even with this the urgency will still exist for further accommodation in the next and succeeding years, for it is now evident that the academic year 1920-21 will find upwards of a thousand students registered in this Faculty with the prospect 'of still more in the following years.
