DR. WILLIAM BENNETT KOUWENHOVEN Dean SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING FROM its wartime tempo of a two and one'half year course, the Engineering School this year re; turned to its normal four year plan. The students for the first time in four years had more than occasional week'long vacations, and the profes; sors were not so burdened down with the extra work the University did for the government during the war. In the past few months Hopkins has witnessed 32 the enlargement of a recently created department in the Engineering School. The Department of Industrial Engineering, under Professor A. G. Christie, who is also the head of the Mechanical Engineering Department, was organized in 1946. It was not until this year that it was able to operate under a full program. The course offers students a combined field of study in business and engineering.
