Three methods of studying motion are described. A wind tunnel is utilized in demonstrating flutter. Computer graphics with an oscilloscope are used to investigate the natural modes of vibration and to track the simulated motion of missiles. (TS)

The expansion of the Rensselear Polytechnic Institute's cooperative program is described. Recruiting and selection of students for the program which leads to the Master's degree, and relations with faculty also are included. (TS)

Describes a course to give to non-engineering students at least a qualitative physical explanation of some examples of fluid flow situations observed and encountered in our daily lives. (Author/TS)

Describes attempts in Britain to unite physics and technical studies in the new GCE A level engineering students (college bound). (Advocates more interdisciplinary efforts and greater use of mathematics.) (TS)

A training program for new faculty at The Pennsylvania State University consists of week-long seminars held just before and just after the fall semester. Student opinion and rating of instruction is also used. (TS)

Considers that the supply of new scientists and engineers will eventually become limited by the availability of motivated and able young people. Population, enrollment, and employment projections to 1990 suggest that a shortage of graduates will occur in the 1980's. (AL)

This article (the 1971 Presidential Address to the Mathematical Association of U. K.) makes a plea that college teachers of mathematics should be better aware of the applications of mathematics in other subjects. As an example, the author describes the use of differential equations to solve certain vibrational problems in mechanical engineering.…

Excerpts from proceedings and recommendations of conference media, systems and resources in engineering education. Conference held at Lehigh University, May 19-20, 1966. (IR)

Future use of nuclear energy to produce electricity and desalted water is outlined. Possible desalting processes are analyzed to show economic feasibility and the place in planning in world's economic growth. (DS)

Interprets College Interest Inventory, administered to 284 students, both ways, with neither method proving superior. Suggests that under restricted conditions, discriminant function might be more appropriate for counseling purposes than configural analysis. (Author/CJ)
