Presents a literature review of the impact of impingement in fishery resources at different power plants in the United States, covering publications of 1976-77. Consideration is given to engineering studies and biological effects for reducing impingement. A list of 96 references is also presented. (HM)

Compares the content of some undergraduate and graduate courses in chemical kinetics and chemical reactor engineering. (BB)

This course is based on the premise that a sound base in the mechanics and electrokinetics of the dispersed phase is essential for an understanding of the macroscopically apparent behavior of such disperse systems. (Author/BB)

The opinion is presented that chemical engineering education seems to emphasize the professor's research and/or professional interests with little regard for the real needs of the student who intends to become a practicing engineer. (BB)

Principles, experimental procedures, results, and discussion of this method are included here. The method was used in undergraduate laboratory courses in Toulouse, France. (BB)

Describes one approach to supplying engineering and computer science educators with an economical portable digital systems laboratory centered around microprocessors. Expansion of the microcomputer based laboratory concept to include Learning Resource Aided Instruction (LRAI) systems is explored. (Author)

Surveys of schools with approved programs in chemistry and chemical engineering revealed that the number of students receiving baccalaureate degrees rose only three percent; Masters degrees showed little change; and PhD degrees declined four percent. A listing of chemical and chemical engineering degrees awarded by surveyed schools is included.…

The aim of this program is to integrate a broad spectrum of disciplines and apply the integrated whole to the solution of the problems of the pulp and paper industry. (BB)

An editorial on the ranking of college chemical engineering departments in terms of productivity indices. (BB)

Comments are presented by five reviewers of a paper on the ranking of college chemical engineering departments in terms of productivity indices. The author replies. (BB)

This comparison is intended to provide a compendium of the merits and possible deficiencies of course structures presently being used in engineering education. (BB)

Describes sea careers including diving, offshore industries, aquaculture, science, recreation, naval architecture, and ocean engineering. (BB)

Discusses a study showing that job offers in 1975-76 to candidates with bachelor's degrees in chemistry were 11 percent higher and in chemical engineering 3 percent higher than in 1974-75. Job offers also increased for women and for candidates with graduate degrees. (MLH)

Titles of bulletins, for persons who are interested in agricultural accident prevention, are listed as well as examples of farm machinery manufacturers who are making special efforts to produce valuable teaching aids and to inform all segments of agriculture about important safety development. (HD)
