Description

Written by Dr. Larry Gragg, Curators' Distinguished Teaching Professor Emeritus of History at Missouri University of Science and Technology, Forged in Gold tells the tale of our university's 150-year history, from its hardscrabble "country academy" origins in the 1870s to its position today as one of the nation's top STEM-focused research universities

The coffee-table style book weaves iconic campus events and historical photos into a deeper appreciation for the way the campus has shaped the world, from the post-Civil War Industrial Age to the space race and beyond. Explore the rich backstories and little-known history of Missouri S&T as you get to know this land-grant institution on an entirely new level.
