G. D. Liveing, M.A.

G. F. Helm, B.A., F.R.C.S.

The course of lectures on Physic consists of fifty (twenty on general and thirty on special Pathology), delivered during the Lent and Easter terms.

The course on Human Anatomy consists of seventy, delivered during the Michaelmas and Lent terms, by Dr. Humphry.

The course on Chemistry consists of fifty, delivered during the Lent and Easter terms.
The course on Botany consists of twenty, delivered during the Easter term.

The Downing Professor delivers a course of fifty lectures on some subject connected with the study of Medicine in the Michaelmas and Lent terms.

The Professor of Anatomy delivers a course of twenty-five lectures on Comparative Anatomy during the Michaelmas term.

Dr. Humphry delivers a course of lectures on Surgical Pathology during the Summer.
Pupils have an opportunity of dissecting in private.

There is a rich and interesting Anatomical Museum open to medical students daily. Students are admitted to the medical and surgical practice of the Hospital on the payment of 10. 10s. for a year, and an additional 57. 58. for an unlimited period.

Medical Students are required to enter at one of the seventeen Colleges (it matters not which), and reside there nine terms (nearly three years), during the first half of which time they are generally occupied in the study of Classics, Mathematics, &c., in their respective Colleges; then, having passed the previous Examination in these subjects, analogous to the preliminary examination required at the University of London, they can pursue the study of Medicine, attend the practice of the Hospital, and the Professor's lectures above specified. This done, they may continue their medical studies in Cambridge, or elsewhere.

If it be thought desirable, the student may continue his classical and mathematical reading for a longer period than the above arrangement contemplates; and may, in due time, present himself for the second Examination in those subjects whereby he becomes B.A.; but this is optional.

PROCEEDINGS IN PHYSIC. M.B.

The candidate for M.B. must have resided nine terms (nearly three years), have passed the previous Examination in Classics, Mathematics, &c., and have been engaged five years in medical study, of which six terms must have been in the University. Only four years of medical study, of which four terms are in the University, are required of those who graduate with honours

as B.A.

There are two Examinations for M.B. subjects are Chemistry, Botany, Elements of Comparative Anatomy, Human Anatomy and PhysioThe first after three years of medical study. The logy, Materia Medica and Pharmacy, Pathology, Portions of Celsus, Hippocrates, and Aretæus.

The student, before admission to this first Examination, must produce certificates of attenanced on lectures on Chemistry, including manipulations, Botany, Elements of Comparative Anatomy,

Human Anatomy and Physiology, Pathology, Materia Medica and Pharmacy, of dissection during one season and of attendance on Hospital Practice.

The second Examination is after the completion of the course of medical study. The subjects are Pathology and Practice of Physic, Clinical Medicine, Medical Jurisprudence, the medical treatment of Surgical and Obstetrical Diseases. The student, before admission to this second examination, must produce certificates of attendance on lectures on Principles and Practice of Physic, Clinical Medicine, Clinical Surgery, Medical Jurisprudence, and Obstetrical Medical, and of attendance on Hospital Practice for three years.

After the Examinations have been passed, an Act must be kept. The candidate reads a thesis composed in English by himself on some subject approved by the Professor. He is then questioned in English by the Professor on the subject of the thesis, and on other subjects in the faculty of a more general nature.

M.D.

The candidate can be admitted to the degree of M.D. in the ninth term (nearly three years), after taking the degree of M.B. A Master of Arts may be admitted to the degree of M.D. at the prescribed period, when he has produced the same certificates and passed the same Examinations as are required for the degree of M.B.

An Act has to be kept similar to that required for M.B.

M.C.

The candidate for the degree of MASTER IN SURGERY is required to pursue the same course as for M.B. during the first three years, ¿.e., during his residence in the University, and to pass the same First Examination.

He must attend the Surgical practice of a Hospital for three years, and be House-Surgeon or Dresser during six months; must attend Lectures on Human Anatomy (two courses with dissections) during two seasons, on Surgery, Clinical Surgery, Midwifery (with ten cases), and Medical Jurisprudence.

The Second Examination, after the completion of the period of study, is in Practical and Surgical Anatomy, Principles and Practice of Surgery, and Clinical Surgery, Midwifery and Medical Jurisprudence.

The full time required for the degrees of M.B. and M.C., from entrance at the University, is four years in the case of those who graduate with honours, as B.A.-i.e., who go through the examination for either the Mathematical, Classical, or Natural Sciences Tripos. Many Medical Students take this course, and go through the Natural Sciences Tripos, because the subjects of the examination (Botany, Chemistry, and Comparative Anatomy), are akin to those of Medicine; and the Student who has passed in any of them is not required to be again examined in those for M.B. or M.C. In the case of Students who do not graduate with honours, the time required to obtain the M.B. and M.C. degree is five years. The expenses at Cambridge, including residence, lectures, &c., are about 150l. per annum; but these are in many cases lessened by Scholarships, which are very numerous, and obtainable by most Students of industry and ability.

A candidate must have passed one of the Arts Examinations in the list recommended by the General Medical Council, after which he must have been registered at Durham or Newcastle, as a Medical Student.

The Examinations for the Degrees of Bachelor and Doctor in Medicine are conducted in a similar manner. The Examinations are held, except in special cases, yearly, in the month of June, at the close of Easter Term. Licences and Degrees are conferred in Convocation at Durham.
