Electrical Engineering Department Since its origin as part oi the Physics Depart- ment, Electrical Engineering has become an increasingly important part oi the School of Mines curriculum. The first degree in Electrical Engineering was granted in 1917, when it was still a part of the Physics Department. ln l924, a separate department oi Electrical Engineer- ing was established. Along with the ever-broadening use of elec- tricity and its increasing importance to indus- try, the Electrical Engineering Department has added courses and revised its policies. At the time that the E. E. Department was separated from the Physics Department, all courses were prescribed by the department and no electives were offered. ln those days Electrical Engineer- ing was a much narrower field than it is at the present time. Today an E. E. may specialize in one ot three fields: power Cpower plants and electrical machineryl, electronics, or communi- cations. Recently the department has added courses in television and servo-mechanisms. Servo- mechanisms are a class of regulators which Get that reading! Give it more X-gain..

Civil Engineering Department Civil Engineering is the oldest of the engi- neering professions. Civil Engineering at the Missouri School of Mines is divided into six main branches. These are Surveying and Ge- odesy, Transportation Engineering, Structural Engineering, Hydraulic Engineering, Sanitary Engineering, and Municipal Engineering. The classroom lectures give the background knowledge, with the laboratory and field work giving actual experience in the jobs to be done after leaving school. For example: in the courses in surveying, curves for highways are laid out, topographic maps are plotted, and ele- vations are determined in the same way as done in the field. The courses in hydraulics, structural and bridge designing give practice in designing structures and bridges for load stresses and work in determining power flow of liquids for work in particular jobs. The sani- tary courses give practice in running cultures to check for harmful bacteria, practice and theory in disposal of waste much the same as a sanitary engineer in a city might have. These are a few examples of the correlation between the work done in the classroom and laboratories and the Work done after leaving school. The Civil Engineer may point with pride to the many fine examples of his work in the world of today.
