DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT ENGINEERING nPHIS year, more than ever before, the problems of Management Engineering arc the interest of our whole national effort, lor we are all interested in the correct management of our nation's industry. To obtain the maximum output with the minimum use of effort and materials, is the purpose of training in Management Engineering. Elemental Electrical and Mechanical Engineering, Chemistry, Metallurgy, Time and Motion Studies, Accounting, Safety Engineering, and Management and Labor Problems arc some of the subjects which give the Management Engineer the principles and engineering background to prepare him for the efficient direction of production. The men who study Management Engineering at Carnegie Tech are more than “efficiency experts’’; they are well rounded engineers prepared to take a vital part in industry, making themselves a credit to their school and to their department.

Glen U. Cleeton 11 tad of Department of Printing DEPARTMENT OF PRINTING I IAT makes the Tech Printer a unique person- , ’ alitv? We think that it's partly because Carnegie l ech is the only college in the country that grants a Bachelor of Science degree in Printing and attracts students from all over the nation. 1 le receives well-rounded training in color and advertising design, mathematics, chemistry, physics, liberal arts courses, and laboratories in the varied techniques of printing production. He is a personality, not merely an educational phenomenon. If he is a genuine Printer, he is probably on the staff of at least one campus publication, is an active member ol his dorm or fraternity, looks with contempt upon those hard working engineers who seem to think that studies are more important than social life, and is sure that when he graduates he will get a better job than any one else in his class. And why not? I le’s a I ech Printer! 2X G. U. Cleeton. H. K. Sterling, C. W. Pitkin, G. F. Henman, K. R. RurchnrH.

McCabe. Bcrl. Monrad, York, Weit DEPARTMENT OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING Warren L. McCabe Head oj Department oj Chemical Engineering T3 UBBER, explosives, gasoline, chemical engi-lvneers—all terms synonymous with the great war of production that we are waging today. Chemical Engineers arc playing a major role in developing new processes and new products to alleviate the shortages with which we arc faced. The Chemical Engineering Department is fortunate to have as teachers such outstanding men as Dr. Bcrl, who was Chief Chemist for one of the largest munitions companies in the world. The department's job is a difficult one; it must in four years combine into one, a Chemist and a Mechanical Engineer. The Chemical Engineer is, for the most part, a process engineer. He must be able to take the findings of the chemist and make them work on an industrial scale. To do this he must have knowledge both of chemistry and of the materials that he must use in the design of his process. With this purpose in mind, the department has designed a rigorous course that covers both these fields. 30
