£agi tGG iittg Looks Towoa I Future OR. ROBERT E. VIVIAN Chairman, Division of Engineering CARl A. NEIDENGARO Chairman, Depl. of Civil Engineering ONI- OF THE most complex and intensive programs of study at Long Beach State is engineering. Because of its dual involvement in both the theoretical and the practical sides of science, this field offers a formidable educational challenge to the interested student. Engineering first became integrated with the college in 1957 as part of the National Science division. In 1958 it became an independent department, and in the spring of 1959 it gained divisional status. The division started with a staff of seven instructors, 95 students, and a few tempo- rary buildings. In the short space of six years it has grown phenomenally, now boasting 28 full-time and 18 part-time faculty members, 943 students, and over two million dollars in new buildings and equipment. At its inception, engineering was organized for only lower division students adding juniors in 1958. In I960 Long Beach State graduated its first engineering major. Just this year full accreditation was granted the entire program of courses offered leading to professional status with Bachelor of Science degrees in mechanical, civil, and electrical engineering. There are also many additional courses offered at the graduate level. In the very near future the addition of Master of Science degrees in all three branches of the fields is anticipated. Dr. Robert Vivian, the division's chairman, is a man of rich and varied experience. Starting in teaching in 1918, he taught continually until 1957, the last eighteen years being spent as dean of the U.S.C. department of Engineering. Though planning retire- ment in that year, he changed his mind and instead took the reins of Long Beach State's fledgling engineering department where he has worked a grueling twelve hours a day ever since. Because of the hard work by this inexhaustible septuagenarian, and his faculty and students, the engineering division has brought acclaim and recognition to the college from all over the nation.
