During 1910-11 two batches of scholars associated with Professor Sarkar's educational system in Malda, altogether fifteen in number, were sent out by him for higher studies to the universities of the U.S.A. The following universities were selected by him: Yale, and the State Universities of Michigan and Wisconsin. Some of the scholars were sent later to the Purdue University (Indiana) and the State Universities of Illinois, Iowa and Ohio. One was sent to the University of Berlin in Germany. The subjects selected by him for these scholars were as follows: physics, chemistry, biology, experimental psychology, economics, commerce and banking, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and chemical engineering. These scholars were expected on their return to India to function, first, as educational workers, and secondly, as industrial pioneers, along the lines indicated in Professor Sarkar's books.
