COLLECTION SUMMARY Title: College of Engineering, Engineering Resource Center records Dates: 1963-1965, 1967, 1970-1982, 1988-2000, 2004-2005, 2008, [n.d.] Creator: Engineering Resource Center, College of Engineering, South Dakota State University Physical description: 1 linear feet—1 container Collection number: UA 8.5 Language: Collection material in English. Repository: South Dakota State University Archives, Hilton M. Briggs Library, South Dakota State University, Brookings, S.D. Abstract: Collection is composed of material generated by programs within the Engineering Resource Center: Office of Remote Sensing, South Dakota Space Grant Consortium, South Dakota Local Transportation Assistance Program, University/Industry Technology Service, Publications, and Essential Networking and Training for Entrepreneurship. ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION Provenance: This collection was found in the Archives in 1997. There is no indication of where they came from or how they came to be here. Dr. Suzette Burckhard of the College of Engineering transferred the Photogrammetry images and pocket stereoscopes that are found in the remote sensing portion of this collection to the Archives during the fall of 2003. This is an on-going collection with material arriving through departmental records transfers, the university campus mail, or random donation by various individuals. Access Restrictions: This collection is open to research without restriction. Items in this collection do not circulate and may be used in-house only.

BACKGROUND NOTE The Engineering Resource Center, established in 1986, exists to serve the university, citizens, and industry in South Dakota. Complementary outreach and/or technology transfer programs combine to make up the center. Thus, the knowledge gained from one program often supports or strengthens another program. The programs are: 1) Engineering Extension; 2) Office of Remote Sensing; 3) South Dakota Space Grant Consortium; 4) South Dakota Local Transportation Assistance Program; 5) University/Industry Technology Service; 6) Manufacturing Extension Partnership; and 7.) Essential Networking and Training for Entrepreneurship. The Engineering Resource Center may undertake projects directly or use project teams composed of students, university faculty, and non-university experts. These teams may be discipline-specific or interdisciplinary. The center has an on-line expertise database to identify potential faculty and industrial consultants. Another database contains information on the manufacturers and processors in South Dakota. Related Material: Helder, Dennis Lynn, Image processing, Brookings, S.D., The University, 1993.
