Presented are some characteristics of curricula in engineering which existed in various educational institutions in the United States and which lead to the award of associate degrees. A tentative classification system by which content areas can be identified is offered, along with an analysis of curricula as they existed in different institutional…

This resume of an interim report discusses a university preparatory program for Israeli soldiers of Islamic (Sephardic) origin. The Israeli Defense Forces identify and select the candidates, who must be of Sephardic, low socioeconomic status background and have certificates from academic or vocational high schools. The chosen students are soldiers…

In the academic year 1957-1958, San Jose State College used closed-circuit instructional television for direct teaching and for teacher education courses involving observation of primary and secondary school classrooms in the area. Direct teaching by television was used for demonstrations in two engineering courses, for teaching presentations in…

This is the 1975 National Science Foundation (NSF) annual survey of total graduate and postdoctoral enrollment in science and engineering in the United States. Data elements collected from 7,664 departments of 354 Ph.D. granting institutions include: (1) enrollment status (full and part-time); (2) level of study (first year and beyond first year);…

The 108 tables printed in this volume provide data on the support of graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in all areas of science and engineering for the year 1973. The data were collected from 339 institutions offering 5,683 doctoral programs in science and 876 masters-only programs. Data are organized to show the sources of support for…

This paper describes the adaptation of instructional modules and audio-visual tapes for an engineering graphics course to a course entitled "Technical Drawing for Applied Art." This is a service course taught by the engineering department for the applied art department in the College of Home Economics. A separate problem package was utilized with…

On the instruction of the Council of Ontario Universities, the Advisory Committee on Academic Planning in coordination with the Committee of Ontario Deans of Engineering has conducted a planning assessment for doctoral work in metallurgical and materials engineering. A consultants' study of metallurgical and materials engineering is presented,…

Under a 1972 grant from the National Science Foundation's College Science Improvement Program (CoSIP), Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) undertook a major educational experiment involving the total reorientation of its educational programs. The encompassing effort is referred to as the WPI PLAN. A major facet of the WPI PLAN involves student…
