This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This coffee-table book uses color photographs and captions to tell the story of the first one hundred years of the Purdue University School of Chemical Engineering. Formed four years after a chemical engineering curriculum was established at the University, the School grew rapidly in size and reputation. It was a leader in encouraging women and minority students to become engineers, and it produced many substantial scientific contributions. The School continues to provide expertise and solutions to the grand challenge problems that the world faces today, whether in energy, nanotechnology, biotechnology, health care, or advanced materials. Among its thirty faculty members, five are members of the National Academy of Engineering.
Download or read book The Making of an Engineer written by Lawrence P. Grayson and published by . This book was released on 1993-07-02 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When did formal engineering education begin? Even if we could shine a light into the murky shadows of prehistory, a precise answer would no doubt be impossible. All we know for sure is that engineering has been part of the driving intellectual energy of economic development and social change throughout the world for millennia. Fortunately, we have a much clearer picture of the origins of engineering education in the United States and Canada. In fact, the history of engineering education in North America is closely linked to the history of the ASEE itself—when the Society was founded in 1893, formal education was just becoming universally accepted as the means for entry into engineering practice. Now for the first time. Lawrence P. Grayson has compiled a fascinating chronicle of the growth of the Society and its context in world events of the past 100 years. Through stunning archival photographs and documents, The Making of an Engineer presents an invaluable visual record of the evolution of engineering education in the United States and Canada. Throughout the book. Grayson underscores the strong historical link between the development of economic and social trends and their impact on engineering education. This often tension-filled relationship has been the fertile soil from which engineering has grown and evolved to meet the changing needs of society. Grayson shows how engineers have adapted and flourished in the face of each major historical development of the last 100 years—and how these changes have been reflected in the evolution of engineering education. This magnificent chronicle celebrates the centennial of the ASEE. What finer tribute can there be than this graphic evidence of the Society’s role in forging an unparaleled standard of excellence in the education of engineers!

Download or read book Full Steam Ahead written by John Norberg and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mechanical Engineering was the first school of engineering to be established at Purdue University in 1882. From just 120 students, the School has grown over the last 130 years to serve over 1,800 undergraduate and graduate students annually. Originally located in Mechanics Hall, a one-story red brick building, Mechanical Engineering now has extensive facilities that include two major satellite research laboratories, Ray W. Herrick Laboratories and Maurice J. Zucrow Laboratories, named in honor of the first director. There are more than 30 additional instructional and research laboratories, including the Roger B. Gatewood wing, which opened in 2011, and increased the space available to students and faculty by 44,000 square feet. Full Steam Ahead tells the story of the School of Mechanical Engineering and looks to a future where Purdue engineers are leading the world and making advances in biotechnology, nanotechnology, robotics, design and manufacturing, and renewable energy. Distinguished alumni included in this publication range from astronauts, like Gus Grissom and Jerry Ross, to Bob Peterson, lead writer and co-director for the Oscar-winning animated film, Up.

Download or read book Bridges and More written by Angie Klink and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridges and More takes the reader from the early years of Civil Engineering when Purdue's campus consisted of a smattering of red brick buildings surrounded by grassy meadows and roads flanked by white, wooden fences to today's state-of-the-art facilities such as the Bowen Laboratory for Large-Scale Civil Engineering Research and the online hub for the Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation (NEES).The highly illustrated book touches on major milestones in Purdue Civil Engineering history from Road School, to the Ross Summer Surveying Camp, to Purdue's involvement in world landmarks such as the Panama Canal, Hoover Dam, the Golden Gate Bridge and the Tower of Pisa. Often, Purdue Civil Engineers are public servants, evolving research that helps to prevent disasters like building collapses and bridge failures. Bridges and More honors Purdue's School of Civil Engineering with historic images and an appealing account of 125 years of education, research and a profession that is, as the title suggests, about so much more than bridges.
