...physics through Physics 12 as prerequisites. The courses offered (under the label engineering science) include all the undergraduate courses in applied mathematics as well as those related more closely to the applications of physics, chemistry, and biology, included are a wide diversity of topics such as computer sciences, fluid and solid mechanics, electronics, information theory, automatic control, the physics of solids, atmospheres, and oceans, water chemistry and biology.

...expert in fluid dynamics and aerodynamics, Chang has worked on nuclear reactors for space propulsion, plasma studies for controlled nuclear fusion reactions, and new structural techniques for aircraft. But ever since he saw an aircraft factory in Nanking destroyed by a sudden twister 35 years ago, he has been determined to unlock the secrets and tame the fury of tornadoes. His artificial storm has now given him his first hope of success...
...Division is also considering a course on fluid mechanics, and the HPC may circulate new questionnaires to test student reaction...
...varied uses of the encapsulation process seem limited only by the human imagination. Microcapsules of water have been incorporated in cigarette filters. Before a smoker lights up he pinches his cigarette, thus breaking the capsules and moistening the filter. Dry floor-scouring pads containing capsules of cleaning and polishing fluid are also being marketed. Aircraft companies are using rivets coated with microcapsules containing primer. When the rivet is forced into place, the capsules break, allowing the primer to flow over both the rivet and the adjoining metal to protect them from corrosion. Manufacturers are testing encapsulated flavors and fragrances...
...that preceded Wilson's brief 17 months in office. He was still coolly confident of victory as he made his way by train around the hustings. At one Labor rally, he was hit in the face by a stink bomb thrown by a 14-year-old boy. The fluid splashed into Wilson's right eye, and he retreated from the platform for emergency medical treatment. After two days the inflammation subsided, but the incident pointed up the campaign's most unlovely aspect: a surge of violent heckling by teen-age hoodlums...
