Abstract
THE Ministry of Labour announces that technical committees associated with University Recruiting Boards have been set up to deal with offers of service from men less than twenty-five years of age with qualifications in engineering, chemistry, metallurgy, physics, the biological sciences and mathematics, in order that they may be allocated to an appropriate form of national service. The committees will sit in all cities with universities or university colleges in Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and applications, which should be made in the first instance to a local office of the Ministry of Labour, will be referred to the technical committees and the University Recruiting Boards. This offer is open to men who are starting on their final year of a degree course, or already hold a university degree in any of the following subjects: engineering, chemistry, metallurgy, physics, the biological sciences (including agriculture) and mathematics (including statistics); and to men who are starting on their final year of study or already hold a Higher National Diploma or Higher National Certificate in mechanical or electrical engineering, or the associateship of the Institute of Chemistry.
