Abstract

This scheme, now in its third year of operation, is designed to bring to Great Britain every year thirty-eight Canadian graduates in engineering for post-graduate studies. The Fellowships have a duration of two years and are tenable in industry, in universities, or partly in each of these. The author has been connected with the scheme from its inception; he assists in the selection of the graduates in Canada and arranges for their location and training in the United Kingdom. The paper describes in some detail the origin, purpose and operation of the scheme and raises many issues of interest and importance. The author also gives summaries of the reactions of Athlone Fellows who are now receiving post-graduate training in Great Britain. The purpose of the paper is twofold: to give information concerning a new and important system of Fellowships, and to evoke constructive criticism from professional engineers of its objects and operation.
