The highly complex business world needs special- ists; but too often, such specialists know little outside their major field and are unable to solve the basic problems of living. To meet this problem, the Divi- sion of Business Administration at Merrimack Col- lege offers a curriculum that includes general busi- ness courses, cultural and religious subjects, and thorough study in a particular branch of commercial knowledge. Under the direction of Joseph P. Murray, O.S.A., Ph.D., the business division integrates these courses and produces majors in Accounting, Marketing, and Business Administration, who understand their own speciality but who can also meet the problems of everyday living.

• Engineering As American society has become more highly industrialized the demand for qualified engineers of all types has grown steadily. Because techno- logical institutes and colleges have been unable to supply enough graduates to fill this demand and since no Catholic college in New England offered a degree in engineering, Merrimack College established a division of engineer- ing in 1951. The civil engineering course offers intensive study in such courses as surveying, highway engineering, materials testing, geology and soil mechan- ics with emphasis on the solution of practical problems in the laboratory. The curriculum also includes cultural courses as English, History, Fine Ails, Economics, and Religion. With a well-rounded program of study the new department prepares to confer the first degree of Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering in 1955. JOHN H. CRAWFORD, O.S.A.
