SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH.
WORK AT UNIVERSITY. The amount of research carried out at the Auckland University College is not widely known, probably because its results receive publicity only in scientific journals published overseas. Professor F. P. Worley, in a paper read before the Auckland Institute last evening, said the university necessarily had to regard its research strictly from the scientific point of view, and while they were by no means indifferent to commercial possibilities it was difficult to deal with actual industrial problems with the limited staff at their disposal. What the university endeavoured to do was to produce the trained men who would eventually deal 'with those problems,. and Auckland in this respect had been successful in supplying many well-known manufacturing firms in the Dominion and also in Australia with officers to manage their industrial research departments.
