The College is situated in the heart of Newark at High Street and Summit Place. The work of the institution is carried on in four buildings. The recitation halls are adequately equipped modern structures, particularly suited to requirements of an engineering college. Located in the center of one of the most important industrial sections in the world, the opportunities for direct contact with industry are exceptionally good and co-operative relations have been established with some of the largest and best industries in this section. GENERAL INFORMATION Industry is asking today for young men of character and initiative who have been trained to leadership along the lines of commercial production. Men are in great demand who can step into positions of more or less influence and who can handle problems of manufacture as well as problems of design. The work of the production engineer of today is concerned with problems of labor and problems of money as well as with problems having to do with materials. The Administration of the College believes that success in the field of engineering depends, today, upon certain fundamental factors which are best taught in direct contact with modern industry. The factors are: (1) Character (2) Initiative (3) Hard work (4) Understanding human relations (5) A knowledge of fundamentals of applied science. Early contact with the industries enables the student to get not only his academic work but also to learn at first-hand some very important and fundamental things about the operation of modern industry and about the functions of the modern engineer. Beginning in the year 1940-41 two full semesters of academic work will be given to senior students. The co-operative work for students affected by this arrangement will be increased and it will be given during the summers following the Sophomore and Junior years. This work will take the place of the alternating schedule now in effect for seniors. The summer cooperative work will have the same purpose as that heretofore given in the Senior year. It will serve as an industrial engineering laboratory where the men will work under commercial conditions, commercial standards and commercial criteria. The work given in industry under the supervision of the College will, however, be limited to those men who have shown maturity, accomplishment, and development in the first two years of their College work. It will be in the nature of a premium given those men who are likely to profit from it, along with other premiums in the way of scholarships, exemptions from examinations, etc. extended to an Honors Option group. It will be optional on the part of the student and limited by the College.
