The Harvard Engineering School was established with its own faculty in 1918, offering both graduate and undergraduate instruction. The Graduate and Undergraduate Schools of Engineering were created in 1932 although after 1935 undergraduate engineering students were registered in the College. In 1946, this became the Division of Engineering Sciences and Applied Physics. The Graduate School of Engineering merged with FAS in 1949; the Division of Engineering Sciences was created, comprising the Dep...
