Department of Mineral Industries renamed

The Department of Mineral Industries was renamed the Department of Materials Engineering. Emphasis of the program changed from the exploitation of raw materials to discovering and applying fundamental relationships that exist between the hyperfine structures of solids and their engineering properties. William W. Austin was head of the department.

1962
First PhD awarded in civil engineering

The graduate program at NC State expanded in the 1960s alongside a growing emphasis on science and engineering education in the U.S. following the launch of the Sputnik satellite in the Soviet Union in 1957. Changes were gradually implemented in individual courses, and other areas of civil engineering expanded with graduate programs, including the first PhD granted in civil engineering at NC State.
