New EE Curriculum
To Go into Effect
A change in the curriculum of electrical engineering to a
more basic treatment of subject matter will go into effect
next semester
Staff members and students of the Department of Electri
cal Engineering will meet at 7 tonight in 110 Electrical Engi
neering to discuss the new curriculum. The meeting is
planned to explain it more fully
to electrical engineering sopho
mores but is open to the public
According •to Ralph E. Arming
ton, associate professor of electri
cal engineering, the change em
phasizes the fundamental treat
ment of principles rather than
the teaching of devices which
are soon outdated. A more exten
sive treatment of electronics will
also be stressed
Approximately 170 fourth-se
mester students will be affected
by the change and will take
.courses as set up by the new
curriculum. Students who are
past their fourth semester will
not be affected by the change.
The curriculum gives students
the opportunity to specify an op
tion in the fields of electronics
or power in their seventh semes
ter.
Arrnington said the level of the
courses will be higher and more
based on advanced mathematics
,The revised courses will eliminate
some of repetition and overlap
ping now present, he said
All fourth-semester student s.
will take EE 31 and 32, fields and
circuits. In the fifth semester they'
will take EE 33, electrical net::
work analysis and .EE 35, elec
tronics. In the sixth semester they
will take EE 37, energy conver-;
sion and control, and EE 39, vac
uum tube circuits.
During their senior year, stu
dents will choose either the
power or electronics option and
take courses relating to it.
The other courses in the cur
riculum will be the same as be
fore, as listed in the 1957-58 cata
logue.
The curriculum will keep the:
present industrial automation op-I
tion and the missile systems c.,
tion. These options - will not be'
affected by the change.

behavior of shock waves is enter-,
