Oblad Silver Medal of Excellence
The Alex G. Oblad Silver Medal of Excellence in Metallurgical Engineering is awarded yearly to the senior student with the highest cumulative g.p.a. in the Metallurgical Engineering program. As you can see, there are gaps in our records. If you know who won the medal in any of the late seventies or early eighties, please let us know. | Acad. Year | Oblad Medal | | 1970-71 | Don A.

Thin Film Deposition
Many modern technologies rely on the properties of surfaces rather than the bulk materials. In this image, an undergraduate student loads a sample into a vacuum chamber where a thin film of magnetic materials will be deposited.
