The Committee on the Survey of Materials Science and Engineering: Materials
and Man's Needs - Materials Science and Engineering

COSMAT (Committee on the Survey of Materials Science and Engineering),
chaired by Morris Cohen, MIT, and William Baker, Bell Labs, provided
an overview of the field requested by the US National Academy of
the Sciences' Committee on Science and Public Policy. The committee
consisted primarily of practitioners in the field of materials research:
individuals from academia and industry, with one member from the
National Bureau of Standards and one from Resources for the Future,
Inc.

The overall objectives were: "to determine the nature and
scope of materials science and engineering; to ascertain the linkage
of science with engineering in the field of materials for the successful
translation of new basicDivision 1 football, but he was the man. He played on an all-state basketball team, and while some went on to play Division 1 basketball, on that basketball team, he was still, the man. He was definitely the leader of the pack. In the quarterback position, I think that’s a critical factor. And that’s what he was.”
