bernard r'ivin William schick Chairman electrical engineering The curriculum of the Electrical Engineering Department provides its students with a comprehensive knowledge of electrical engineering and 0 basic knowledge of the liberal arts. Mr. William Schick, department chairman, aims to avoid the subordination of liberal arts courses to a purely scientific study. This year the department maintained its growth and improvement. The IEEE, sponsored by the de- partment, brings the electrical engineering students added knowledge and experience.

d r'. In aria castellani Q . WW. ., N-.. h h . ;.8 dr. philip cooperman professor james benson mathematics Ernst Mach, 0 tomous scientist, described mathematics as Ueconomy of thought. This economy of thought is the goal that the Mathematics Depart- ment has set tor its students. Courses are oHered in both pure and applied mathematics, and the curriculum is under revision to meet modern trends in math education now being initiated in elementary and high schools. Several new people have ioined the stag, including Dr. Donald Bein, Dr. Kenneth Wolsson, and Dr. Arthur Schlissel. The department sponsors the Mathemat- ics Club, which has invited weH-known mathematicians to speak here. A mothemotic laboratory may soon be added to the mathematics program to keep pace with the current emphasis on computers and numerical tech- niques.

mechanical engineering Operating under a revision of the 1962 curriculum, the Mechanical Engineering Department is preparing for an ac- creditotion evaluation. It is most probable that this con- stantly improving department will be accredited. Dr. Saul Fenster, department chairman, proudly speaks of two Na- tional Science Foundation awards to the deportment-one for undergraduate research and one for equipment. The de- portment boasts one of the only teaching college deans in the University, Dr. Rothbort, whose new book, Mechanical Demgn and Systems Handbook is used 05 a reference work for mechanical engineers. This year an Analog computer was put into operation and research in heat transfer was continued. Under the auspices of the department, the Me- chanical Engineering Club and a chapter of the Instrument Society of America encourage and sustain student interest outside the classroom. Professor S.
