The completion of these programs does not bring the research here at Missouri School of Mines to an end, as the advancement of sci- ence never ceases. New projects are being carried out now and even newer, more radical programs will be started in the future. The Metal- lurgy Department is progressive in man's never ending thirst for knowl- edge. ti Q1 il AQ S., -... . Dr. Morris taking notes Epplesheimer, Frad

The Met Department, as it is often called, was one of the first de- partments on campus. Originally, the department's curriculum was primarily centered around the crush- ing and grinding of ores and extrac- tion of metals, emphasizing practi- cal applications. Today, however, the scope of the curriculum offered covers every aspect of metallurgical engineering from the original ex- tractivemetallurgy, to physical met- allurgy, foundry metallurgy and even a nuclear option in metallurgy.

CivH Engineedng Department l a Eshba ugh Roberts Hersh ko Mr. Best supervising slab con- , struction. There are many ways in which the civil en- gineer makes himself known. The building and maintenance of our railway system can be attributed to the railway engineer. Credit for the millions of miles of highway in the United States goes to the highway engineer. Hy- draulic engineers are responsible for our mas- sive dams, complicated water distribution methods, and difficult river control systems. The sanitary engineer claims recognition for healthy, pure water and safe disposal of wastes. ' Bridges, industrial buildings, and sky- scrapers stand as a monument to the structural engineer. Every one of these many achieve- ments is a specialized field of the civil engi- neer who is accountable for much of the tan- gible progress of our country. witz Dunn Weddle Nowak: Muir Wf Roberts Hersh kowitz Esba ugh Dunn Ile Th e C iv one of the ' and has ke rollment as partments a greatest nu dents are cl students ar tant researo the departn partment s' training in neering to cessful in f at--...7 I
