UNIVERSITIES, COLLEGES, AND MEDICAL EXAMINING BOARDS IN ENGLAND. UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD. A student deciding to graduate in Medicine must-1. Enter :at a College or Hall. 2. Pass all the examinations in Arts. There are four terms in each year : the last classical examination may be passed in the seventh term, and the student may thereafter devote himself to the study of the natural sciences, and by obtaining a first, second, or third class in that school he is entitled to a Bachelor’s degree in Arts. 3. After the final classical examination, pass two years in study prior to a scientific examination for the degree of M.B., and two years more prior to the final or practical examination for the same degree, which confers the licence to practise Medicine. For the degree of M.D. a dissertation has to be publicly read three years after taking the M.B. Various scholarships of about the value of dE70 are obtainable by competitive examination in natural science. Every year a Radcliffe Travelling Fellowship is competed for by any who, having taken a first class in a natural science school, propose to study medicine. The travelling Fellows receive jE200 a year for three years, half the period being spent in study abroad. In the Museum there is practical instruction in physics, chemistry, and anatomy and physiology; together with courses of lectures on the above subjects, as well as on mathematics, astronomy, geology, mineralogy, and zoology. Large collections illustrate these several subjects : there is a pathological series in the medical department. A scientific library of nearly 20,000 volumes is open to all students. The Medical examinations take place annually in Michaelmas
Term. The
following officers are attached to the Museum :Regius Professor of Medicine-H. W. Acland, M.D., F.R.S. Linacre Professor of Physiology--G. Rolleston, M. D., F. R. S. Professor of Chemistry-Sir B. C.

The student enters at one (it matters not which) of the seventeen colleges, and keeps terms for three years by residence in it. The first part of the time is spent in classical and mathematical study, and he must pass the previous examination in those subjects. He may then-i. e., during the last half or more of the three years-devote himself to medical study in the University, attending the hospital and medical lectures, Or he may proceed to take a degree in Arts, dissecting, &c. either continuing mathematical and classical study, and passing the ordinary examination for B.A., or going out in the Mathematical or Classical Tripos; or he may pursue the study of Natural Science, and take the B.A. degree, by going out in the Natural Sciences Tripos. This last plan is preferred by
students, the subjects for this Tripos examina. (Chemistry, Botany, Comparative Anatomy, &c.) forming part of the series of medical study, and students are not required to be again examined in any of those subjects in which they have shown proficiency in the Tripos examination. Those who proceed to B.A. through a Tripos examination are said to take the degree with honours. The expenses of residence, lectures, &c., at College-i. e., in the University, need not at all exceed 150 per annum. That is quite sufficient; and an intelligent student, who has been well taught at school, may be pretty sure of defraying part of the expense by obtaining one of the many scholarships at his college. These range in value from 920 to 80 a year. They are chiefly given for mathematical and classical proficiency. Some may be obtained at once, even before entering, and no-
many medical
tion
tices of the times of examination for these, which vary at the different colleges, are given from time to time, under the head of " University Intelligence," in The Times and other newspapers, and information respecting them is forwarded to most schoolmasters. Students sometimes try for these scholarships at several colleges in succession. At Downing and Sidney Colleges the examination is not confined to classics and mathematics, but natural science is taken into account. The greater number of the scholarships are given by competition after a year’s residence. One at Caius is given for Anatomy, another for Chemistry. For an account of the scholarships see THE LANCET of the 12th of April, 1862; and information may be obtained by application to the tutor of either of the colleges. For the degree of Bachelor in Medicine.-Five years of medical study are required, except in the case of medical students who have graduated with honours as Bachelors of Arts, four years being then sufficient. There are three examinations. The first in Mechanics and Hydrostatics, Chemistry (with heat and electricity), and Botany. The students who have taken honours in the Natural Sciences Tripos may be altogether, and those who have passed other university examinations be partially, excused from this examination. The second in Anatomy and Physiology (Human and Comparative), and Pharmacology. The third (at the conclusion of medical study) in Pathology and the Practice of Physic, Clinical Medicine, and Medical Jurisprudence. The examinations are partly in writing and partly vivcc voce; they take place twice annually. An Act has to be kept, which consists in reading an original thesis, and passing a viv4 voce examination on the subject of the thesis and other subjects. Previously to the first examination, Lectures must have been attended on Chemistry (with manipulations) and Botany. Previously to the second examination the student must have attended Lectures on Anatomy and Physiology (Human and Comparative), Materia Medica, Pharmacy, and Pathology; have dissected one season, and attended Hospital Practice one year. Previously to the third examination, Lectures must have been attended on the Principles and Practice of Physic, Clinical Medicine, and Medical Jurisprudence ; also Hospital Practice for three years. The degree of Doctor in Medicine may be taken three years after M.B. An Act has to be kept. A Master of Arts proceeding to M.D. is required to produce the same certificates and pass the same examinations as for M.B. For the degree of Master in Surgery.-The candidate must have passed the three examinations for M. B., and have attended Lectures on Human Anatomy (a second course), on the Principles and P.actice of Surgery, Clinical Surgery, Midwifery (with ten cases); also a second season of Dissections, three years’ Surgical Practice at a recognised hospital, and a housesurgeoncy or dressership for six months. He is then required to pass an examination in Surgical Anatomy, Pathology, the Principles and Practice of Surgery, and Clinical Surgery (at the bedside). The following is a summary of the course which a student (commencing at the University, say in October, 1866) may follow:-He enters at any one of the colleges, and pursues classical and mathematical studies till October, 1867. Previous examination (in Classics and Mathematics), October, 1867. He is then registered as a student of medicine. Medical study in the University (by attendance on lectures on Anatomy, Medicine, Surgery, Chemistry, Botany, &c., and the practice of Addenbrooke’s Hospital) for two years from October, 18(;7. Natural Sciences Tripos examination (in Comparative Anatomy, Chemistry, and Botany), December, 1869; this admits to B. A. degree. Second examination for M.B. (in Human and Com-
292 Materia Medica), May, Third examination for M.B. (in Pathology and Practice of Physic, Clinical Medicine, Medical Jurisprudence), Nov., 1871. Examination for M.C.

November, 1871.
Part of the period of medical study is thus spent in Cambridge, and part (say after the second examination) in London or elsewhere. Attendance at the hospital and lectures on Anatomy, Chemistry, &c., are recognised by the Universities of Cambridge and London, and (for one year) by the College of Surgeons and
the
Society of Apothecaries.
