Built to consolidate existing smaller science and engineering libraries, the library's construction began in 1991 after the demolition of the Brown Hall Annex. The library was designed by Philip Johnson as part of a three building project on campus. [3] The newly constructed library opened in January 3rd, 1993. [4]

A science fair or engineering fair is an event hosted by a school that offers students the opportunity to experience the practices of science and engineering for themselves. In the United States, the Next Generation Science Standards makes experiencing the practices of science and engineering one of the three pillars of science education.
Humanitarian engineering is the application of engineering for humanitarian aid purposes. As a meta-discipline of engineering, humanitarian engineering combines multiple engineering disciplines in order to address many of the world's crises and humanitarian emergencies, especially to improve the well-being of marginalized populations.
In October 1999, the Corps of Engineers established a system of laboratories, called the Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC). [2] The ERDC was a consolidation of seven, pre-existing laboratories: the Coastal and Hydraulics, Environmental, Geotechnical and Structures, and Information Technology Laboratories in Vicksburg, Mississippi; the Construction Engineering Research Laboratory ...
Food engineering is a scientific, academic, and professional field that interprets and applies principles of engineering, science, and mathematics to food manufacturing and operations, including the processing, production, handling, storage, conservation, control, packaging and distribution of food products.
In the early 1990s the acronym STEM was used by a variety of educators. Charles E. Vela was the founder and director of the Center for the Advancement of Hispanics in Science and Engineering Education (CAHSEE) [6] [7] [8] and started a summer program for talented under-represented students in the Washington, D.C. area called the STEM Institute.
There is a general consensus among historians that the roots of the industrial engineering profession date back to the Industrial Revolution.The technologies that helped mechanize traditional manual operations in the textile industry including the flying shuttle, the spinning jenny, and perhaps most importantly the steam engine generated economies of scale that made mass production in ...
