The key question that seems to arise from these figures is Do university departments put too much emphasis on research And yet before we conclude that they do we must remember that it is widely agreed that research is what keeps university faculty alert and able to teach in an up-to-date way. It may well be that what students currently want and what the health and progress of MSE demands are two distinct things. 506 The Coming of Materials Science A danger in the increasing mergers of MSE departments with departments of mechanical engineering and chemical engineering in particular is that engineers are in general wedded to a continuum approach to matter while MSE people are concerned with atomic crystallographic and microstructures. the last of these particularly. If that aspect of materials science is sidelined or abolished then its practitioners lose their souls. The key justification of the whole concept of MSE from the beginning has been the mutual illumination resulting from research on different categories of materials. The way I worded this recognition in my editorial capacity writing the Series Preface for the
