The third year students of three other courses, viz., those of Mining, Geology, and Physics, also receive instruction in quantitative analysis; but as the time which they can devote to this subject is limited, those substances which are more appropriate for their respective studies are selected for them from the above list. The text-books in use are Thorpe's Qualitative Analysis, Fresenius' Qualitative Analysis, Jones' Practical Chemistry, Cairn's Quantitative Analysis, Thorpe's Quantitative Chemical Analysis, Fresenius' Quantitative Analysis, Wanklyn's Water Analysis, Sutton's Volumetric Analysis. ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, During the second year, the student of the chemical course is instructed in Organic Chemistry by lectures which are given twice a week. SYNOPSIS OF LECTURES. Introduction.
