FORE\VORD

There are many job opportunities for technicians, and the number

of such opportunities is continuing to increase. Tn the 1960's the

United States will spend more money on research and development

in one year than we have previously spent in all the combined

years from the colonial days through \Vorld \Var II. In the near

future, as engineers and scientists deal with ever increasing amounts

of knowledge, from two to six technicians will be required for each

scientist or engineer.

Many technicians have the opportunity to work in research and

development where attention is concentrated upon the knowledge

and products of the future. Many fine opportunities for employ­

ment are available to those who can qualify and arc willing to work

hard as members of the scientist-engineer-technician-craftsman

team.

To provide the kind of training so necessary for future scientific

and industrial progress, the Spartanburg County Technical Educa­

tion Center offers a variety of curricula, both day and evening,

des'gned to meet the needs of youth and adults in Spartanburg County.

BACKGHOUND History

In 1961, the South Carolina General Asseillbly made possible a program of increased technical training through the formation of Technical Education Centers. It was felt that if South Carolina was to achieve its rightful position in the expanding industrial and tech­nological era, well-equipped training centers would be net'ded to prepare our people to meet the demands of present industry <md of industries anticipated in the futurt'.

After thorough surveys-both State and local-and a complete analysis of the present and future needs for technical centers, Spartanburg was selected as one of the locations for such a facility.

Location

The Spartanburg County Technical Education Center is located on a forty-two acre tract of land along U. S. 1-85 in the County Farm Industrial Park. The building is a modern structure, 50,470 square feet in area, contains well-lighted, air-conditioned classrooms, large modern shops, and laboratories equiplx.J with the most recent test and production type facilities.

Purpose

The purpose of the Center is to provide teclmical training for qualjfied students, both youth and adult. Training programs wiII be designed to impart profitable skills to the untrained and to in­crease the knowledge (and thus to increase productivity) of those already trained. In short, the Center will serve the principal ohjec­tive as already defined: to prepare students through practical train­ing to meet the demands of a modern indllstrial society.

OBJECTIVES

It has been said that technical education is knowledge in action. Objectives of the Spartanburg Technical Education Center embody the belief that the most meaningful knowledge is that which can be put to productive use.

Our objectives are envisioned as specific goals established for the purpose of preparing each student to meet the fundamental chal­lenges of life. The Center will provide instruction in numerous special fields to meet the demands of an industrial community, but will not ignore its responsibility to imbue each student with a more vivid concept of the American ideaL Thus certain courses which place emphasis upon individual initiative and achievement and which underscore the numerous benefits derived from our American system of free enterprise will be common to all areas of study.

Our aims reRect a fim) philosophy that education must serve the needs of the individual as linked to occupational requirements of the community and of the economic society. Physical and mental skills will be developed to the end that each student may apply to his own life and work the knowledge and experience thus acquired.

AREAS OF STUDY

Technical Division

Courses offered in the technical division are designed to meet an increasing demand for high level industrial skills in South Carolina. Students entering the technical division are required to meet educa­tional and aptitude standards appropriate to the course of study chosen. Such standards demand a firm educational base and a level of maturity expected of adults.

Students who successfully complete courses in this division will be prepared to offer prospective employers the training, knowledge, and skill approaching that of the professional engineer. Obviously more time is required to attain such a degree of proficiency than would be necessary in the less exacting trade courses. Applicants for the technical division will therefore be urged to enroll for the fnll-time program.

Trade Division

Courses in the trade division place emphasis on training in those manipulative and mental skills applicable to the particular interest and work of the student.

Extension Division

The term "extension" denotes an effort to project the training program beyond expected limits. The extension division therefore offers avenues of learning to those men and women who, though employed, seek to up-date, up-grade, and generally enhance their individual knowledge and performance.

Included in this division are supervisory-level courses designed to stimulate those individuals who aspire to advance their knowl­edge in the fields of management.

Special classes both day and night will be provided to accommo­date such students.

ADMISSION PROCEDURE AND REQUIREMENTS

General Requirements

Any person may enroll in a course if he meets the admission requirc>ments. Such requirements will necessarily depend upon the courses of study chosen. A regular full time shldent must be at least eighteen years of age or a high school graduate and possess certain basic aptitudes and interests. No person currently enrolled in public school may apply for admission without the consent of the principal of the school in which he is enrolled.

The applicant should be in reasonably good health with no im­pairment of vision or physical defc>ct which would restrict the free use of arms and hands. The applicant may under certain conditions be reqUired to furnish evidence of satisfactory health.

The Center is co-educational, and its program is not restricted to high school graduates. Technician level students should, however, possess the qualities and maturity of high school graduates. Such students must have completed two years of mathematics, including one year of algebra. Physics and chemistry are also desirable pre­requisites for students of technology.

Individual adults are accepted in areas of study for which they are deemed qualified by reason of background, experience, or aptitude.

Admission Procedure

An applicant meeting the above general requirements should first obtain application forms from the Center office and request his secondary school to forward a transcript of his high school record to the Center. Applicants should secure such forms in person, if possible. Otherwise, application forms will be mailed upon request.

While application for enrollment may be made at any time pre­ceding the anticipated date of entry, it is strongly recommended that this be done at least thirty days prior to such date. Sufficient time will thereby be allotted for necessary testing, counseling, and the proper evaluation of results.

[ 11]

Shldents may be promptly dismissed for conduct which is consid­ered incompatible with standards of propriety and good judgment.

Student Insurance

Certain risks are inh<:>rent in any work involving regular contact with mechanical and electrical equipment. \Vhile stringent precau­tions wiII be taken to insure safety, it is felt to be in thc best inter­ests of all students to providE' some measure of insurancE' protection.

A group policy providing the desired insurance protection wiII be maintained in effect by the Center and all students wiII be required to subscribe to such coverage. The cost of accident insurance to the student will always be kept as low as possible in relation to benefits available.

Grading System

Grades will be issued to students at the end of each term. The student will be graded on the acquirement of technical skills, promphless, ability to work under direction, interest in the work, initiative, and ability to apply related technical information.

Students emolled in the regular technology programs will be graded by the following letter-grade system.

A 93 - 100 Excellent B 86 - 92 Above average C 78 - 85 Average D 70 - 77 Passing F Below 70 Unsatisfactory I Incomplete WP Withdrawal passing WF Withdrawal failing

Incomplete: Assigned when the shldent is unable to completE' his work or take the final examination because of illness or for other reasons over which the student has no control. This grade is given only with the approval of the Associate Director. An "Incomplete" must be removed within the first six weeks of the next term in which the student is enrolled. Otherwise, the grade becomes an auto­matic "F".

Counseling and Testing

All applicants for admission will be given a series of aptitude tests prior to acceptance and registration. The counselor will sched­ule interviews with students concerning interpretation of their test s(;ores and he will advise them concerning course seledions. Appli­cants are not encouraged to enroll unless it is believed that tIlt' student has made a sound choice and that he will profit from his ~tudy.

Studt'nts may use the servil"es of the counseling offic(" at any time.

Also, many reference materials are made availahle to students during the training program.

Placement Service

The Center provides placement servi(;(:' through the EIllplovmellt Security Commission which ,lssists students and alumni in securing employment. The objective of this service is to guide and assist tht' student and graduate to ohtain the type of position for which he is hest suited.

Adivt' (;ontacts are maintained with industries throughout South Carolina. Informative booklets, bro(;hures, and industrial directories are available to students and alumni in the Center's librarv, and grollp and individual joh intt'rviews are arranged.

:\ refreshment area equipped with a variety of modern \(,Ildillg machines is provided for the convenience of students.

Interpretative Guide To Code Identification Of Courses

A simple code has been devised to designate each course offered by the Center. The principal purpose served by the code is to elim-

[ 16]

Page 19: Spartanburg TEC Course Catalog 1963-1964 · Resume Regular Schedule Last Day of Summer Quarter FALL QUARTER Registration .. Day Classes Begin Night Classes Begin Upgrading-Updating

inate confusion resulting from many courses with similar names, e.g. Electronics, Technical Electronics, Industrial Electronics, etc. In completing variolls forms, students will often be required to use the code symbols. The code serves a secondary purpose of provid­ing an abbreviation of the course title when recording such titles in small spaces. Jt will also facilitate the transcribing of information when the llse of data processing equipment is desired.

Certain courses are required of every student irrespective of the course of study. Such courses are called Basic Core Courses and are identified by the code symbol BsC. Other courses are common to all courses of study at the technical level. Such courses are desig­nated as Technical Core Courses and are identified with the symbol T({~. Those courses common to all programs within the trade divi­sion are coded as TrC.

In addition to the above, there are those few courses which are found in more than one course of study but are not common to more than two or three. The courses have been labeled Parallel Courses and carry the code PrL.

All other courses carry a code designation peculiar only to the cours(' of study in which the course is found.

C2 Qualitative Analy~is I

TIle classroom work in Qualitative Analysis offers the opportunity to review and practice the balancing of chemical equations, stoichiometric calculations, and equilibrium calculations while the laboratory work continues the emphasis on tedlllique by allowing the student practice in chemical reactions and ending with identifying unknowns.

C3, C4, C5 Chemical Calculations I, II, and III

These courses will be the backbone of the second year of Chemical Tech­nology. Since chemical and chemical engineering operations are almost entire­ly mathematical in nature, the calculations taught in these courses will fit closely with the Unit Operations course. Calculations to be included are those of material balance, heat balance, equilibrium calculations, reae-'Hon rate cal­culations, fluid mechanics, mechanical separation, heat transfer, combustion, correlating data, and economic calculations.

C6, C7 Organic Chemistry I, II

These courses provide a basic research type understanding uf Organic Chemistry by bringing out the well established reactions for synthesis of the different organic structures. The classes of organic compounds are studied separately with both their synthesis and typical reactions. The laboratory work continues to give practice in the handling of laboratory equipment with rea­sonable skill being attained in handling organic reactions studied in the class­room.

CB, C9 Quantitative Analysis I and II

These courses will equip the student to be proficient in the analytical field of wet chemistry. He will practice analytical laboratory methods requiring precise attention to detail as he works on gravimetric techniques such as weighing, sampling, precipitating, filtering, washing, ignition, etc.

C 10, C 11 U nit Operation I, II

Study of industrial applications and plaut operatiou,. Desiglled to COver the unit operations of chemical engineering from theoretical and practical stand­points. A study of fluid mechanics, transportation of fluids, measuring devices, size reduction, handling of solids, mixiIlg, mechanical separations, measure­ment, filtration, heat exchange, evaporation, diffusion processes, distillation, absorption, extraction, crystallization, filtration, and industrial process equip­ment.

Cl2 Qualitative Organic Analysis

Trains the student to think in terms of the fundamental organic reaction, and particularly to the reactions of the functional groups. He is also trained to search the literature on Organic Chemistry to obtain information, physical properties and derivations. The student is left to his own initiative in identify­ing unknown organic compounds.

Cl3 Instrumental Analysis

CIVIL TECHNOLOGY

Civil technology is one of the oldest and broadest fields of engi­neering. The civil technologist is a builder. He changes the course of rivers, builds dams, roads, and buildings and transforms a wilder­ness into a thriving city. His work is coordinated with many other fields of engineering. He may help build airports and buildings for the aviation industry; pipe lines to carry oil or gas for the chemical technicians; and dams and power stations to produce electricity for till' electrical engineer.

The civil technologist today has an almost endless choice of mate­rials and efficient equipment with which to build his highways, hridges, and buildings. He is limited only by his ingenuity and his ability to create. His is a continually challenging job offering a number of specialties. His interest may lie in structural design-the df'sign of steel, wood, or concrete framing for buildings or bridges; or he may prefer hydraulics, flood control, and irrigation. On the other hand he may specialize in surveying, construction, or the de­siIQ1ing and building of highways.

TECHNICAL DRAFTING AND DESIGN

The courses outlined in this curriculum have been arranged to provide optimum specialized technician instruction in a two year program.

The courses are arranged in a sequence that gives the student the required technological and specialized courses as they are needed to coordinate his laboratory experiences.

The curriculum is designed to qualify the graduate for perform­ance of duties in the field of mechanical drafting and design tech­nology requiring the application of engineering principles, but as applied to the technical rather than the engineering field. Since the technician is called upon to design as well as to perform, emphasis is placed upon both knowledge and skill. As the student develops in drafting skills, mathematics, and related sciences, a gradual shift is made in the curriculum applying these skills to practical problems in design.
