ENGINEERING I 173
DIVISION OF ENGINEERING
James H. Smith, Director
Professors: J. H. Smith, Barnhart, Bevill, T. Evans, Foin, Higgins, Jarrett, Kulhan, Richards
Associate Professors: Bodger, Deming, Dominick (Assistant Director), Haynes, Hotz, Liao,
Rowland, Supersad
Lecturer: Damm
Part-time: Brechmann, Erickson, Grote, Ho, Lafferty, Ostrander, Poulin, Sarkisian, Serabian
Engineering may be cleAned as the application of science for the benefit of society.
Therefore the engineering student pursues courses in the sciences, mathematics,
humanities, and social sciences; and in engineering science which interfaces the courses in
science with those in professional engineering. Because it embraces a broad horizon,
engineering is divided into interrelated fields of specialization. The Division provides
instruction in the fields of civil, electrical, industrial, and mechanical engineering. Electrical
engineering includes the study of electronics. A program in surveying and photogrammetry
is also offered. Engineering students are prepared to enter the practice of professional
engineering or graduate study; students studying surveying and photogrammetry are
prepared to become specialists in the various aspects of surveying.
The civil, electrical, and mechanical engineering programs are accredited by the
Engineers' Council for Professional Development (ECPD) , the nationally recognized
accrediting agency of the engineering profession.
HIGH SCHOOL PREPARATION
Recommended preparation for engineering or surveying and photogrammetry consists of:
English (3 year$), algebra (2 years} , geometry (1 year), trigonometry (\4 year), physics or
chemistry (1 year ). Additional recommended courses are: advanced mathematics (Y. year),
chemistry or physics (1 year ), mechanical drawing ( Y2 year), shop (\4 year).
TRANSFERS
Transfers from community colleges or other institutions of highe r learning are accepted
under provisions outlined under Generlll Information-Admissions. Students planning to
transfer to th e Fresno State engin eering or the surveying and photogr:unmetry programs
should follow as closely as possible the outline of the program of toeir choice.
ENGINEERING FIELDS
Civil Engineering. Civil engineering is concerned with the science and technology of
planning, analyzing, designing, constructing, operating, and main taining structures,
transportation systems, environmental works, and water resource developments. Within
these fields the civil engineer deals with buildings, bridges, foundations, highways, airports,
waterways, pipelines, surveying, mapping, water supply systems, waste treatment systems,
environmental water quality control, dams, hydropower installations, irrigation, flood
control, and other fixed engineering works.
The civil engineer may utilize computer methods of analyzing and designing complex
structures and systems; undertake research on structural use of new materials or on
advanced methods of water and waste treatment; design protective structural features and
radiation shielding in nuclear power plants; participate in structural and facility aspects of
aerospace projects; or work in municipal engineering, urban planning, or vehicular traffic
control.
Electrical Engineering. Electrical engineering concerns the production and utilization of
elec trical energy. T_he many specialties are grouped under the areas of electronics and
power. In each area, the engineer is responsible for the analysis, development, design, and
management of equipment and systems.
Electronics engineering specialists are concerned with high-frequency power and its use
in equipment and systems pertaining to communications as exemplified by radio, television,
telephony, and optical radiation; to computers and information processing, guidance and
control; and to electronics combined with other specialized fields such as medical
electronics.
Power engineering specialists deal with electrical power and its utilization in lighting,
