PROFESSORS AND STUDENTS.
The officers acting as professors in the school are officers of mature age, and high education, chosen from the garrison of Berlin. The teacher of the duties of the staff, must always belong to this corps. They are appointed to their work in the school for an indefinite time, without prejudice to their other duties.
The civil professors are generally chosen from those of the Royal University at Berlin.
With regard to discipline, all the professors are subject to the board of military direction; with regard to teaching, to the board of direction of studies.
Every professor is bound upon entering on his functions to lay before the board of direction of studies a programme stating the bearing, the successive subjects, and the arrangement of his course. This programme must be approved by the direction.
