Dual organization of faculty and curriculum provides flexible, interdisciplinary undergraduate program that leads to concentration in an engineering specialty. In operation for two years, the plan has utilized teaching staff and facilities more effectively, and provided students with a broader than usual perspective of engineering. (WM)

Describes a three-unit, one-quarter course centered around the application of scientific and engineering principles to the control of the air-land-water environment for the health and welfare of mankind. (Author/WM)

Criticizes pure science orientation of engineering curriculum, faculty and admissions criteria since 1920's. Advocates redirection toward balance of "pure and "applied technological training which would clarify practical aspect of engineering profession and prepare students who could compete with theoretical physicists and mathematicians. (LP)

Describes a course for non-engineering students at Lafayette College which includes the design process in a project. Also included are the study of modeling, optimization, simulation, computer application, and simple feedback controls. (Author/TS)

Engineering educators do not utilize to full capacity the advanced computer techniques which information processing industries and utilities have developed to further educational services and data communication. (IR)

Article focuses on government information systsms and resources, alternatives to computer storage retrieval and large scale information systems, and techniques to improve the utilization of existing information systems in colleges and universities. (Editor)

Article discusses systems engineering, a method of handling theoretical technology in its adaptation to environment. (Author/IR)

Graduate, undergraduate, and research programs in chemical engineering at the University of Kentucky are described. Includes a brief history of the university and development of the chemical engineering department, comments of department faculty, and a list of graduate offerings. (JN)

Describes five statistical simulation programs developed at Wichita State University--Coin Flip and Raindrop, which demonstrate the binomial, Poisson, and other related distributions; Optimal Search; QSIM; and RANDEV, a random deviate generation program. Advantages of microcomputers over mainframes and the educational uses of models are noted.…
