The requirements for the degrees of doctor of engineering and doctor of philosophy at this institution have now been made substantially equivalent, as far as the period of study and the candidates´ attainments are concerned. The Executive Committee has voted to maintain two Austin research fellowships carrying a grant of $500 each and the remission of tuition fees; these are now to be open equally to candidates for the two degrees mentioned above. Fifteen other graduate scholarships and fellowships are also maintained.
