In 1915, the three departments were organized into the Engineering Division. Dr. T.H. Taliaferro was appointed dean of the Engineering Division upon its creation. 1915-1944 In 1917, the University reorganized, creating the College of Engineering and Mechanic Arts. In 1921, the college changed its name to the College of Engineering and appointed Arthur N. Johnson as dean. In 1926, the college developed its first master's program in the electrical engineering department. The remaining departments established master's programs shortly after that. In 1936, the College of Engineering appointed S. Sidney Steinberg as dean. The first Ph.D. was granted in 1939 by the Department of Chemical Engineering. In 1932, Evelyn B. Harrison became the first woman to graduate from the College of Engineering. She graduated with a B.S. in Civil Engineering. When the United States joined World War II in 1941, the College of Engineering faced many changes. The College of Engineering instituted several specialized training programs to aid the war effort. In 1943, the college created an Army Specialized Training Program to provide students with language and advanced engineering skills. The college also instituted a Civil Aeronautics Pilot Training Program, training students to be pilots for the Military Air Transport Service. The College of Engineering also shortened the duration of its academic programs to accelerate training for technical branches of the Army. Enrollment dropped significantly during World War II but accelerated quickly following the war as students returned to the University of Maryland on the G.I. Bill. During the war, the College of Engineering moved from its original home in Taliaferro Hall to what is now H.J. Patterson Hall. 1944-1975 In 1944, aeronautical entrepreneur Glenn L. Martin, president of the Glenn L. Martin Company, donated funds to the College of Engineering to construct new engineering buildings. Martin's gift to the college resulted in the construction of four new engineering buildings, including the Glenn L. Martin Wind Tunnel. Martin also donated funds designated for aeronautical research. Named for Martin's mother, the Minta Martin Fund for Aeronautical Research was created in 1954. The college renamed itself the Glenn L. Martin College of Engineering and Aeronautical Sciences in 1949 to recognize Martin's gifts. Also, in 1949, the Department of Aerospace Engineering was established. The Department of Fire Protection Engineering was established in 1956. Following World War II, the College of Engineering developed into a strong research institution, with more emphasis placed on research by
