Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a guide to the functions of engineering experiment stations under the auspices of a leading American university, the University of Illinois. Engineering experiment stations, a relatively new concept at the time of this book's publication in 1921, were viewed as a way to bring research opportunities and resources to faculty and students and connect academic knowledge more directly to the needs of industry. With chapters that explain the goals of industrial research, publication of scientific findings, training men for research, and more, the author anticipates many of the features that we now take for granted as part of a modern research university. The volume's historical perspective as well as its insights into the intellectual and industrial aspirations of the early twentieth century make it of continued interest to anyone curious about the historical relationships between academic research and the rise of modern industry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
