College off' Vflqeehnollogy HISTORY olf THE COLLEGE llli New Hampshire College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts at first otlered meager facilities for the teaching of engineering. As in the liberal arts division, only one degree was presented at the graduation of the first class in 1871. NYhen this department moved to Durham in 1893, an opportunity for development presented itself. The effort expended was at first directed towards instruction in applied work in the XYood and Machine shops. The first money received from the Federal fiovernment for the Technology department was expended for shop equipment. Dum page Then, as now, the basic courses and fundamentals for instruction in these fields of arts and applied sciences consisted of English, chem- istry, mathematics, and physics. lfor the first sixteen years, Charles ll. Pettee, who is now Dean of the Faculty of the lfniversity, at that time Head of the Department of Mathematics, directed this department and acted as a member of the teaching start. The first instructor engaged expressly for the teaching of engineering work was Thomas XY. Kincaid. He came to the College in 1886 and, in 1887. he lmecame Professor of Mechanical lfngineeriug.

lliilff ' 6 l6llll!S ?'bIl Dr Charles L Parsons founded the Department of Technological Chemistry at the University and has since become one of the outstanding chemists of the country He came to Durham with the college, and left his position as head of the Department of Chemistry in 1912 to Professor Charles James. In 1914 an arbitrary division into departments was made in the New Hamp- shire College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts. The increasing enrollment of the technological division was one reason for this division. It was not until 1923, the year of the incorporation that this growing division became the College of Technology of the University of New Hampshire. In 1925, George VV. Case came to the Universlty as Dean of the College of Technology. The present total enrollment of the College of Technology is 327 students. A I M I' A L , . .- n.i.fl5'i'-' T ' .
