Establishment of a laboratory of mechanical metallurgy under supervision of Dr. John Wulff, promoted to the rank of professor, has been announced by Dr. Karl T. Compton, president, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge. ...
Administration of the new laboratory will be handled by the department of metallurgy; and present facilities developed by the department of mechanical engineering will be taken over by the center.
In direction of the laboratory Professor Wulff will have the counsel of an interdepartmental committee composed of Professor C. R. Soderberg, department of mechanical engineering, and Professor John Chipman, head of the department of metallurgy; and will include on his staff Professors F. R. Evans and E. L. Bartholomew, and M. S. Burton.
Professor Wulff joined the staff of M.I.T. in 1931 as an instructor, and until his new appointment was associate professor of metallurgy. He was awarded the degree of engineer of mines from the Colorado School of Mines, Golden, Colo., in 1924; the degree of master of science in metallurgy from Yale University, New Haven, Conn., in 1926; and the degree of doctor science in physics from the University of Tuebingen, Germany, in 1929. From 1925-1926, he was a Sterling teaching fellow at Yale, and from 1929- 1931 a National Research Fellow at the Universities of Tuebingen and Munich.
