FACULTY OF ARTS HANDBOOK

Such students must get in touch with the head of the department during the preceding long vacation, and are strongly advised to attend the four weeks' summer course in February, 1965.
With a view to the oral test, each student is required to concentrate, under the lecturer's guidance, on three works selected from the list under (e).
Students are advised to attend the introductory course of lectures on structure and history of the Germanic Languages in German part I ( first term only). (See.
section (ii) (a) of syllabus of German part I.)
The quality of the work of the candidate throughout the year will be taken into account at the annual examination.
