Abstract
IN order to meet the demands of the Services and of industry for technical officers, the Board of Education has established a scheme of State bursaries tenable at universities and at certain technical colleges. The demand is particularly pressing for men and women for radio work for which physics is essential; others will be required for posts needing qualifications in engineering and in chemistry. The bursaries will cover fees and maintenance allowances to meet the full cost of residence at the university or college at which the awards are held. The qualifying standard will be a pass in physics, chemistry, or mathematics in certain combinations in the higher certificate examinations. Applications are being accepted also from boys and girls who have passed the London Intermediate Science examination in the appropriate subjects.
