Higher Classes

Classes in other subjects will be formed, provided that a sufficient number of students desire them. Special arrangements will be always made for individual students who desire to read Higher Mathematics, Pure or Applied, for Honour Degrees in Mathematics.

With the view of encouraging the study of Higher Mathematics, it is proposed to deliver yearly a Course of Lectures on some branch of Mathematics not included in the ordinary College Courses. The Lectures in 1904-1905 will be on Spherical Harmonic Analysis.

Three-quarters of the fee for this Course will be paid by the Board of Education, South Kensington, to certain selected teachers.

Lecture Hours-To be specially arranged.

Fee-15s. Od.

Students who wish for any Special Course for 1905-1906 should communicate with the Professor.

This Course of Lectures will not be based on the requirements of any particular Examination.

PHYSICS

Professor-THE PRINCIPAL.

Assistant Lecturer and Demonstrator-S. R. MILNER, D.Sc. (Lond.)
