Brief History
College of Engineering
The Charter of the University provided for the establishment of Colleges of Mechanics, Civil Engineering, and Mining, in addition
to Colleges of Agriculture and Letters. The present College of Engineering has evolved from the early technical colleges,
with the combination of the Colleges of Mechanics and of Civil Engineering into a College of Engineering in 1931 and with
the College of Mining becoming part of the College of Engineering in 1942. Separate disciplines were added as engineering
developed and expanded, giving the present form of the college structure in Departments of Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering,
Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mineral Technology, Naval Architecture, and Nuclear Engineering.
Early study in the technical colleges was a combination of the science and art of engineering with humanities and foreign
language. But the practice of engineering was not neglected. The staff and students installed most of the college's machinery
and facilities and contributed to the development of campus equipment. Joseph N. LeConte was appointed assistant professor
in the College of Mechanics in 1892 and later professor of mechanical engineering, serving until his retirement in 1937. He
wrote of the 1890-1900 period when the only local electrical power was generated in the engineering laboratory: “Our library
(Bacon Hall) had never been lighted at night....Authority was granted to set a line of poles from the Electrical Laboratory
to the Library and South Hall....On these were strung the wires of the `power circuit' and the single loop of wire for arc
lamps.... The lighting service on the grounds consisted of about 10 open arc lamps in series.... This string of antediluvian
arc lamps was the bane of Cory's (Professor Clarence L. Cory, for whom Cory Hall is named) and my existence, and we often
made nocturnal trips around the circuit to see if all were in operation. I remember one night when President Kellogg was giving
his annual reception, three lamps went out of action at critical locations, so that we in our dress suits climbed the poles
and got them going while on our way to the reception.”
Engineering has kept pace with the growth and development of the campus, having approximately 3,000 students now enrolled
in the college. About 1,200 are graduate students. The first engineering bachelor's degree was granted in 1873 in the College
of Civil Engineering, the first master's degree in 1896, and the first doctoral degree in 1894. Through June of 1965, the
college and its antecedents granted 17,187 bachelor's, 3,338 master's, and 506 doctoral degrees. Engineering alumni have made
a substantial contribution to the development of the state and the nation. The college staff continues to maintain leadership
in engineering instruction, in important research, and as consultants with government and private agencies in all areas of
engineering.
As a result of the increased research tasks during the early 1940's which were supported by off-campus agencies, the college
established the Institute of Engineering Research in 1948, which is now the Office of Research Services of the college. Expenditures
on presently sponsored research activities average over $6 million a year. These activities are directed by staff members,
manned largely by graduate students, administered by the Office of Research Services, and much of the work is done with facilities
located at the Richmond Field Station.
Engineering at Berkeley provides active staff participation and supervision in the Engineering Extension course and conference
programs of service to the people of the state. At present, approximately 2,500 extension students each year are continuing
their education through this service administered at Berkeley. Engineering Extension also assists with the administration
of other special technical conferences and meetings which are arranged by engineering staff members.
The present dean of the college, George Maslach, follows a long line of notable leaders in the field of engineering education,
application, development, and research: Deans Frank Soulé (civil, 1896-1907), Friedrich G. Hesse (mechanics, 1896-1901), Samuel
B. Christy (mining, 1896-1914), Clarence L. Cory (mechanics, 1901-29), Andrew C. Lawson (mining, 1914-18), Charles Derleth,
Jr. (civil, 1907-29 and engineering, 1929-42), Frank H. Probert (mining, 1918-40), Lester C. Uren (mining, acting, 1940-41),
Donald H. McLaughlin (mining, 1941-42, and engineering, 1942-43), Morrough P.O'Brien (engineering, 1943-59), and John R. Whinnery
(engineering, 1959-63). Each has added to the stature and eminence of the college.—H. W. Iversen
Electrical Engineering
In 1875, when President Daniel Coit Gilman appointed Frederick G. Hesse to head the College of Mechanics, only North Hall
and South Hall had been built. Hesse started his work in a single room in North Hall, giving lectures only, since no facilities
as yet existed for laboratory or shop work. The first student was graduated from the College of Mechanics in 1874. In 1878,
the first Mining and Mechanic Arts Building (later renamed the Civil Engineering Building) was completed. In 1893, Hesse selected
Clarence Linus Cory to be assistant professor of mechanical and electrical engineering. Immediately, Cory, Joseph A. Sladky,
superintendent of the machine shops, and Joseph Nisbet LeConte, instructor in mechanical engineering, concentrated on plans
for electrical laboratories in the new Mechanics Building, then under construction. Upon its completion in 1894, Cory and
LeConte, largely with student help, installed electrical equipment surpassed by few, if any, universities in the country.
Research started immediately.
In 1901, Cory was made dean of the College of Mechanics and for more than a generation was recognized as a farsighted and
vigorous leader in his profession. Cory Hall, which now houses the Department of Electrical Engineering, was named in his
honor. After his retirement in 1930, the Colleges of Mechanics and Civil Engineering were combined to form the College of
Engineering, containing the Department of Civil Engineering and the Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering. In
1931, the latter department was split into the separate Departments of Mechanical Engineering and Electrical Engineering.
In 1942, the Colleges of Engineering and Mining merged to form a single administrative unit, the College of Engineering, and
a single academic unit, the Department of Engineering, with the various fields, such as electrical engineering, known as divisions.
In 1958, the Division of Electrical Engineering again became the Department of Electrical Engineering.
The original electrical engineering curriculum was rigidly prescribed, including chemistry, physics, mathematics, English,
German, shop work in machine tools and pattern making, mechanical drawing, descriptive geometry, analytic mechanics, kinematics,
strength of materials, thermodynamics, hydraulics, surveying, and electrical machines. Until the middle 1920's, this curriculum
changed very little, except for the elimination of the language requirements and their replacement by free electives. Then
the growing importance of communications and electronics forced the elimination of the shop courses and surveying and the
establishment of power and communications options. Recent scientific and technological developments, such as automation, computers,
solid-state, quantum-electronic and micro-electronic devices, and the growing importance of bioelectronics, plasmas, magnetohydrodynamics,
and sophisticated systems for transmission and analysis of information and for optimal control, resulted in the establishment
of four options in electrical engineering, allowing the student to follow an integrated sequence of courses in his major field
of interest and still find time for cultural courses.
Approximately 3,800 B.S. degrees, 850 M.S. degrees, and more than 150 Ph.D. degrees have been granted in electrical engineering,
with 91 Ph.D. degrees awarded since 1960. Full-time graduate enrollment in electrical engineering is now 340, with undergraduates
(juniors and seniors) numbering 466. The electrical engineering faculty, excluding teaching fellows and research assistants,
numbers 76. The large increase in graduate study and research is largely due to the establishment of the Electronics Research
Laboratory, which handles research contracts with the federal and state governments and with private industry for the department.
Today, over 200 of the electrical engineering graduate students receive substantial financial aid from fellowships or teaching
or research assistantships.—Lester E. Reukema
Civil Engineering
Civil Engineering was one of the six original colleges of the University; its inclusion was in accordance with the University's
purposes as a land-grant institution. From 1869 to 1930, it operated as the College of Civil Engineering; in 1930, civil engineering
and irrigation (which had been established in 1901) became departments of a newly established College of Engineering. The
two then became separate divisions of the Department of Engineering in 1947, a combined Division of Civil Engineering and
Irrigation in 1951, and finally a combined Department of Civil Engineering in 1958. In 1958, Divisions of Hydraulic and Sanitary
Engineering, Structural Engineering and Structural Mechanics, and Transportation Engineering (recently created under separate
organization) were established in the department. Thus, the present (1965) organization of the Department of Civil Engineering
incorporates not only civil engineering as originally established, but also irrigation and transportation, as well as hydraulics
(which until 1958 had been administered by mechanical engineering). Closely associated with civil engineering is the Institute
of Transportation and Traffic Engineering, founded by legislative act in 1947.
Enrollment in civil engineering was fairly constant, averaging about 50 students a semester in the early decades of the University's
existence, but a few years after the turn of the century enrollment tripled. It then grew slowly to about 250 students in
1930, increased to 400 in 1940, and was 500 in 1957, just before the lower division was transferred to general engineering.
At that time there were about 300 upper division and 100 graduate students in civil engineering; now (1965) there are about
200 upper division and 300 graduate students. The faculty has grown correspondingly to its present number of about 40 professors
and ten lecturers, plus the necessary teaching assistants.
In the early years the principal instruction was in undergraduate courses in surveying, mapping, properties of materials,
structural design, and structures such as buildings, bridges, dams, and water-supply and sewerage systems. Now there are some
50 upper-division courses and a larger number of graduate courses, with elective groups in construction engineering, hydraulic
and water-resources engineering, sanitary engineering, soil mechanics and foundation engineering, structural engineering,
structural mechanics, and surveying-geodesy-photogrammetry.
As in other branches of engineering, laboratory work is an important feature of teaching and research in civil engineering.
There are organized laboratories with staff and facilities in the fields of bituminous materials and pavements, engineering
(construction) materials, hydraulics, photogrammetry, sanitary chemistry, soil mechanics, and structures. The facilities are
located on the Berkeley campus and at the Richmond Field Station, a large proportion of the six engineering buildings on the
campus being devoted to laboratories. For many years civil engineering conducted an annual summer surveying camp, essentially
a field laboratory, but in 1943 the camp was discontinued because of war conditions. It has not been reinstated, in large
part because of the shift in emphasis from manipulative skills to analysis, design, and research.—Joe W. Kelly
Mechanical Engineering
The Morrill Land Grant Act, passed by Congress in 1862, stipulated in part the establishment “...of at least one college where
the leading object shall be...to teach such branches of learning as are related to agriculture and mechanic arts....” Of the
four technical colleges established by the organic act of the University (1868), those of mechanics and agriculture were first
organized. The
Biennial report to the Regents of the University for 1873-75 states that the object of the College of Mechanics is to “educate mechanical engineers, machinists (as far as they are constructors
of machinery) and others who wish to devote their energies to such technical and industrial pursuits as involve a knowledge
of machinery.”
Instruction in electrical engineering was offered in 1892, and in 1903 the dean of the College of Mechanics served also as
the chairman of the Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering.
By 1913, the curriculum in mechanical engineering had eliminated, through matriculation requirement or by deletion, sociohumanistic
courses, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, freehand and mechanical drawing, and in their place added more mathematics and engineering.
Electrical and mechanical engineering were identical except for one course, in each of the junior and senior years. With the
industrial growth of California, attention was focused on hydraulics, electrical power, and hydroelectrical installations
with course offerings in these fields. During World War I interest in aviation grew and shipyards were established on the
Pacific coast. These developments created a demand for training for the war effort and establishing courses in aerodynamics,
marine engineering and naval architecture.
The change in classroom instruction during the 20 years between World Wars I and II was a gradual withdrawal from emphasis
on machine design, construction and performance evaluation to the application of the laws of nature to the evaluation of systems
and their components. An extension of this approach has expanded the number of courses and the fields of study offered to
such an area that several fields of study have split from the department to form other departments, while those remaining
have been established as divisions of the department. Chronologically, the Department of Mechanical Engineering was established
in 1931, designated as the Division of Mechanical Engineering in the Department of Engineering in 1946, and again returned
to the status of the Department of Mechanical Engineering in 1958. The Division of Engineering Design separated from the Division
of Mechanical Engineering in 1947. The Division of Industrial Engineering separated from mechanical engineering in 1956. The
Departments of Nuclear Engineering and Naval Architecture became separate in 1958. The divisions organized in 1958 and constituting
the Department of Mechanical Engineering are aeronautical sciences, applied mechanics, heat power systems (changed to thermal
systems, 1965), and mechanical design.
The enrollment in the College of Mechanics grew steadily from the beginning of the University until it reached a maximum of
10.85 per cent (293 students) of the University undergraduate enrollment in 1908. In 1964, the enrollment was less than two
per cent (299 students) of the University undergraduate enrollment.
The development of the laboratories paralleled the classroom instruction. The initial object was to demonstrate construction,
maintenance, and operation of machinery. The second step reduced the vocational aspect somewhat and stressed the performance
characteristics of the machine. In 1929, the woodshop and machine shop instruction was eliminated from the curriculum. The
junior and senior laboratories stressed a broad concept of system analysis and developed a pattern to introduce the student
to the critical approach desired in graduate research.
In December, 1940, a department-instituted survey in the San Diego, Los Angeles and San Francisco areas confirmed the desire
of industry for assistance in training and up-grading employees in their engineering departments. With the sponsorship of
the U.S. Office of Education instruction was begun in February, 1941, under the Engineering Defense Training program (EDT);
however, it was soon apparent that its utility would be greatly increased by inclusion of science and management courses in
production and supervision, hence instruction was given under Engineering Science Management Defense Training (ESMDT). From
1942 to 1945, the word “defense” was changed to “war,” and during this period a total of 151,202 men and women were trained
for industrial occupations by the University. In addition, courses were also given for the Armed Forces.—S. A. Schaaf
