Show S.L. airport has major economic impact on the area The Salt Lake International has a major economic impact on Utah and specifit ally the Salt Lake area. The economic impact not only comes from the 4,000 employees Engineering Week activities planned at USU The annual Engineering Week at Utah State University, Feb will feature a variety of activities involving both students and faculty. 18-2- Including will be displays and product demonstrations from industry and from student groups representing various academic departments in the College. Engineering design contests will be sponsored by each student organi I zation in the College. Contests include model bridge building and computer truss design (American Society of Civil Engineers), designing a windmill (Society of Manufack climbturing Engineers), a er (American Society of Mechanical Engineers), a magnetic cannon (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers), a water cannon (Society of Agricultural Engineers), paper airplanes and balsa wood airplanes cat-wal- (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics), and design contest sponsored by the Engineering Honor Society, Tau Beta Pi. Culmination of the weeks activities will be the Engineering Banquet, which will honor outstanding seniors from each of the departments in the College, distinguished alumni, and the years outstanding teacher and researcher. working at the airport and the millions of passengers that fly in or out of the city each year, but also from a major construction program. Lou Miller, airport director, said construction has average about $20 million a year for the last four or five years. Construction expenditures this year at the airport will reach about $15 million, explained the director, with $4 million going for maintenance facilities, $4.5 million on a runway rehabilitation program, $2.5 million for a cargo building, and $1 million for a cargo aircraft parking apron. A neering schools are indispensable to state economic development. As a state builds its economic base, engineering schools must broaden their indispensable roles of providing the necessary services to enhance the industrial climate, reported Andrade. To attract new industry the state must be able to show prospective newcomers that Utahs engineering schools are producing adequate number of graduates in scifields. ence and engineering-relate- d Andrade appointed a special advisory board of top Utah industrial leaders in January 1985 to assist the college in improving its interaction with industry. The board meets peri11 odically to discuss and plan how the goals of the college and the econom-Z- , ic needs of the state can be meshed, A 1985 study by the University of g s Utah Bureau of Economic and Business Research found that current research and development in universities, government agencies and private firms in Utah generate $700 million to $D"0 million a year, making research and development a major industry. Activities in science, engineering and medicine account for 90 percent of R&D, and for most research with commercial potential. In the study, R. Thayne Robson, BEBR director, and his associates used various sources to compile a list of 100 firms likely to be doing research and developing new prodof the ucts and processes. Eighty-si- x firms reported that R&D was, in fact, one of their major business activities. According to the study, these firms had cumulative revenues of $1.36 billion and employed 21,000. The R&D portion of their work accounted for about $550 million of their cumulative revenue and 12 per non-prof- For Well-funde- The Salt Lake Section of the American Society, for Quality Control presents the 2nd Annual Quality Symposium.
