Historical note
Courses in Mechanic Arts were first offered in 1869 at Iowa State College (University). In 1871, the college divided the curriculum in Mechanic Arts into Civil Engineering and Mechanical Engineering. Dean Anson Marston organized the engineering curriculum into a separate division of the college in 1904. The Division of Engineering was renamed the College of Engineering in 1959 to coincide with the renaming of Iowa State College to Iowa State University. As of 2005, the College of Engineering at Iowa State University trains students in several engineering disciplines: aerospace engineering; chemical and biological engineering; civil, construction, and environmental engineering; electrical and computer engineering; industrial and manufacturing systems engineering; materials science and engineering; and mechanical engineering. The College of Engineering and the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences also jointly administer the Department of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering. |
Collection description
This collection (1990-2009) contains abstracts of contracts and research grants secured by faculty and staff of the College of Engineering. The abstracts are generally each one page and contain basic information about the research grant such as the name of the lead researcher, the account number, the award amount, and a brief synopsis of the research project. |
Organization
The collection is in chronological order. |
