Involve the student of engineer
ing in a practical design project
and make available to him the
guidance and inspiration of the
experienced professional engineer
from industry.
This is the concept of the Visit
ing Engineer Program of Texas
A&M’s College of Engineering.
In teams of three, the visiting
professionals are serving May
16-24 i. s panels to review the
final presentations of student
teams whp have been working on
assignee^ design problems for the
past three months.
Dr. Jim Earle of the Depart
ment of Engineering Graphics
said the 640 students enrolled in
Engineering Graphics 106 were
divided into teams of five or six
to begin project work February
12. Visiting engineers came to
classes to consult with their pro
teges March 11-15.
TEAMS COMPLETED THEIR
projects April 30 and began pre
paring formal presentations. This
week’s oral reports, in which the
students expose their ideas to ex
pert scrutiny, using graphic aids
« and models, is the culmination of
the entire program, Earle said.
Each team worked on one of
the following: an elevator to im
prove access to and from an off
shore drilling platform, a device
to enable a workman to install
4’x8’ panels without assistance,
an apparatus to enable a wheel
chair patient to bathe unaided, or
a television base which permits
raising, lowering, and tilting.
THE VISITING Engineer Pro
gram was initiated last year and
has already brought 132 engineers
to the campus, according to re
ports of the Engineering Gra
phics faculty, who serve as hosts
and advisors. The visitors tour
such campus facilities as the Cy
clotron, Nuclear Science Center,
Data Processing Center, and the
Teague Space Research Center.
Engineering educators are con
cerned that schools of engineering
will be graduating about 30,000
fewer engineers each year in the
1970’s than will be needed by
American industry. Assistant
Dean C. H. Ransdell points to the
Visiting Engineer Program as a
part of a concerted effort by the
College of Engineering to bring
students into the field and to
keep them motivated.
Some of the designs show qual
ity which would be highly re
spected in industry, Ransdell
maintains.

It’s off to Bangkok for Drew,
his wife and four children. He
will join the faculty of the Asian
Institute of Technology as pro
fessor of civil engineering.
“The Institute has about 100
graduate students and is unique
because the faculty comes from

Zealand and accepts students from
Southeast Asia, excepting North
and South Vietnam,” Drew said.
At A&M, Drew heads the

plus the Civil Engineering Sys
tems Laboratory. He also is head
of the Highway Design and Traf
fic Engineering Division of the
Texas Transportation Institute.
Drew joined the A&M staff in
1964 immediately after earning
the Ph.D. in civil engineering.
