Series 2

Graduate studies and research, engineering [textual record and sound recordings]. -- 1961 - 1978 . -- 26 cm. of textual records and 1 sound recording

Scope and content: This series documents the development of the graduate studies programme in the faculty of engineering in general and in the department of electrical engineering in particular during the 1960s and 1970s. As well, it highlights the effort expended by Dr. R. J. Kavanagh and members of the engineering graduate committee, the electrical engineering graduate and research committee, and various sub-committees in that development.

This series contains incoming and outgoing correspondence, memos, agendas, minutes of meeting, thesis abstracts, reports, and briefs. It also contains statements of disposal of assistantship funds, lists of applicants and programme registrants, summaries of graduate applications, and a copy of the constitution of the Electrical Engineering Graduate Student Association. Also included are proposals for revising degree programme regulations, for graduate courses, and for establishing master of engineering degree programmes.

Of particular interest are copies of graduate study in electrical engineering reports for the years 1963-1966 and a recorded interview with Dr. A. Foster Baird, Professor Emeritus of Electrical Engineering.
