Abstract
IN November, 1876, a short paragraph was inserted in NATURE (vol. xv. p. 69) which contained a notice of the commencement of technical teaching at University College in connection with the classes of mathematics, physics, engineering, and drawing. It may be of interest to state what progress has been made in the workroom up to the present time under rather unfavourable conditions. This we endeavour to do after a recent visit paid at the request of M. Robin, M.Sc., the able and painstaking superintendent of the department, under the direction of the professorial staff. At present the workroom is open on each week-day from ten to five, except on Saturdays, when it is closed at two. The superintendent is present from ten to three on three of the days. Students, who make use of the room, may choose their own hours for work.
