Technology and management of large-scale programs: Semiannual progress report
30 Jun 1969
Abstract
The history of this Grant begins at least as far back as June of 1967. At that time, Mr. James M. Webb, then Administrator of NASA, was Commencement speaker at Drexel. He expressed to me and several members of the Drexel Board of Trustees his strong conviction that the technology and management methods developed during the space program could be used to help solve many other challenges facing the nation, in particular, the problems of the urban environment. He asked u ps why universities were not doing more to bridge the gap between the practice of advanced technology and management, and the education and research programs needed to solve real problems. The present study is our response to that question, and we believe that the approach developed during the first six months will enable us to make a contribution during the three-year period of the Grant.
