Close cooperation between the Foundation and industry has provided an effective and economical method of carrying on research and has produced notable results as the second year of research is drawing to a close. A large part of the apparatus and laboratories used in the instruction of students at Armour Institute of Technology has proven adaptable for use in conducting scientific and engineering research. In addition to this equipment, facilities specifically designed for re- search have been provided as rapidly as required by the undertaking of additional pro- jects. Some of the equipment added includes a coal laboratory, electronics laboratory, fil- tration laboratory, heat transfer laboratory, spectroscopic laboratory, laboratories for ex- treme high pressure work, and a well-equipped machine shop. Many members of the Armour Tech faculty have had extended experience in research and are recognized as authorities in their respective fields. They have been made mem- bers of the staff of the Research Foundation. Other men of adequate scientific and engi- neering abilities have been added to the staff to handle research problems.
