With prophetic vision of the prominent position that ceramic was destined to achieve in the professional and industrial life Naticm, Boothe C. Davis and John J. Merrill c..<:;tahlished at Alfred in 1900 the New York State School of Clay Working and With another ceramic school that was just getting under way at tin)e~ it became the function of the institution to pioneer in the field of ceramic education, leading the way to what is now a nation-wide S(;Ope of university education in ceramics, firmly established as an essential paft of higher education. The growth and development of the school under the direction of Charles Fergus Binns, exemplifies the extent to which these functions were fulfilled. He scrvcu as its director from the time of its founding until 1931 when age necessitated his retirement. Year by year the enrollment increased from nvc in 1900 to one hundred sixty-nine in 1931. The of the. courses of instrnction kept pace with the growth of the school so that the needs of the ceranl1c profession, as they developed from to year, were served at .tll times. During thjs period of the school's history the in~)titution became a guiding beacon for ceramic education everywhere. Th~ vision of its founders was fully realized. Emphasis was laid upon ccran)ic art and the school became distinguished particularly for training in the field of fine ceramics. The year 1932, however) marked a transition in the career of the institution. It is an ilnportant matter for prospective students and prospective employers of graduates to note that although no less attention is given to fine ceramics than forroerly) the school is now prima.rily an institution of cera.tnic technology and engineei'ing xaLher than ceramic art. Art is not neglected, hut technology and engineering are emphasized. This changed status of the institution was made possible by large increases in State appropriations which had been planned by the adminis­ tration.

Contribution of course to meeting the professional component - This is a 3 credit course. It provides 3 credits towards engineering sciences. 5. Relationship of course to program outcomes - This course addresses the following MSE Program outcomes: 1 Ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering to materials systems. (High Coverage) Assessment is done of the homework (use of software, spreadsheet calculations) and the three exams. 4 Ability to apply and integrate knowledge of structure, properties, processing, and performance to solve materials selection and design problems within realistic constraints. (Medium coverage) Student’s ability is measured in the exams. Students have to decide what processes they choose for what type of ceramic shape and material. They need to suggest alternative processes and materials. 7 Ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems. (Medium coverage) Questions in the exams address industrial problems that have occurred. These problems are described with everyday language that the students need to translate into engineering terminology to identify the potential engineering problems, formulate the problems and offer several solution pathways.

  • History of the Department of Ceramic Engineering the Department Was Founded Largely Due to the Efforts of Edward Orton, Jr
    History of the Department of Ceramic Engineering The department was founded largely due to the efforts of Edward Orton, Jr. who was the son of Dr. Edward Orton and Mary Jennings Orton and was born at Chester, N.Y., October 8, 1863. He was taken to Yellow Springs, Ohio, when his father became principal of the preparatory school of Antioch College in 1865. He doubtless learned geology at his father's knee, as "Dr. Orton's geological work at Antioch received official recognition in 1869 when he became one of the two principal assistants to the State Geologist of Ohio, Dr. J.S. Newberry." As a lad of nine years of age, he saw his father become President of Antioch College and a year later inducted as the first President of the newly established Ohio State Agricultural and Mechanical College, as well as its professor of geology, mining and metallurgy. It will thus be seen that geologic science and admin- istrative art entered early into his life. Boyhood and College Days From 1873 to 1877, he attended the public schools of the city of Columbus. At fourteen years of age he entered the Preparatory Depart- ment of the Ohio State Agricultural and Mechanical College, being the 238th matriculant, and was transferred to the Collegiate Department in 1881. Living with his father in the President's residence at the Fifteenth Avenue entrance to the campus, he had exceptional oppor- tunities to see the normal life of a gentleman, an educator, a scie~tist, and an administrator, and to meet many prominent men in those wa:~s of life.
