Professor ERNEST CARLTON Department Chairman an . . V V ,VVV I 1 CIVIL ENGINEERING Civil Engineering is the oldest engineer- ing profession and encompasses many phases of engineering endeavor. This year research facilities and graduate course offerings are expanded to enable the department to meet the increasing de- mand for Civil Engineers. Special professional conferences and the programs of the Student Chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineers keep the faculty and the students well informed of modern engineering advances. Students pursuing Civil Engineering re- ceive basic training in all of the following areas: structures, fixed and movableg con- structiong hydraulics and hydrology? sani- tation, materialsg soil mechanics and foun- dationsg surveying and photogrammetryg and transportation. Working models often aid in the solution of engineering problems.

the growing enrollment CHEMICAL ENGINEERING The increased enrollment in chemical engineering and Chemistry clearly echoes the increased emphasis placed on these fields by today's industries. To keep pace with the growing enrollment in the fields of chemistry, the department has acquired an additional building and has renovated the old chemistry building. Laboratory expansion has included the acquisition of the new infrared and ultraviolet spectrometers. With the enrollment in chemistry now at a zenith the fu- ture of graduate engineers in this field is unlimited. Doctor DUDLEY THOMPSON Department Chairman Increased enrollment echoes the greater emphasis placed on chemistry and chemical engineering by today's industries. . General Chemistry is required of students in all curricula.
