Werner F. Auerbacher, an oral history conducted in 1996 by Frederik Nebeker, IEEE History Center, Hoboken, NJ, USA.

 

They talk about Research division; separation of engineering and manufacturing at Emerson 

Auerbacher talks about engineering a  manufacturing... Then "eventually it grew so big, that in 1955 or so Emerson opened up a research lab in Washington D.C. and separated engineering from manufacturing."

He  goes on to talk about  the research lab being  headed by Dr. Harold Goldberg, who was a  Fellow of IEEE.

Jerome E. Levy, BS, MA majored in mathematics. He was elected to Phi Beta
Kappa in 1937 and after graduating magna cum laude in 1938, he began his
professional career as a teacher of mathematics and physics at the
Preparatory School of the College of the City of New York. With a mandate to
teach struggling students at DeWitt Clinton, Jerome created innovative teaching
techniques that ultimately inspired his students to love the subject of mathematics.
Awarded a Hayden scholarship, he graduated in 1940 from the New York
University School of Education with a master’s degree in education and mathematics.
During World War II, Jerome served as an officer-in-charge of the Pacific Fleet
Radar School. Under his leadership, more than 6,500 electronic technicians in
the Army, Navy and Marines were trained for assignments as radar-repair technicians.
Jerome was awarded the Legion of Merit with the following presidential
citation: “Lieutenant Commander Levy established a curriculum and training
technique which facilitated the technical training of radar personnel of the Pacific
Fleet and, by his contribution in the field of electronics, greatly furthered the
progress of radar development.” In 1957, after serving an additional five years as
a civilian training expert and fire-control analyst with the Navy Department
Bureau of Ordinance, Jerome took a position as a consultant to the
Instrumentation Laboratory at MIT. He managed the preparation and control of
the design documentation being created for the Polaris and Apollo guidance systems.
He is the creator and developer of the MSEM Program curriculum; he and
Harold Goldberg worked together to prepare the school for its first accreditation
by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges.
Jerome is the founder and former president of Washington Engineering Services,
Inc. (WESCO) and is now a semi-retired consultant at Northeastern University in
Massachusetts. He holds the 2007 Bernard M. Gordon Prize for Innovation in
Engineering and Technology Education, presented by the National Academy of
Engineering (NAE). He is a former member of the Association of Computing
Machinery (ACM), the IRE, IEEE and ASEE, and has published many articles and
presentations in ASEE publications. He once served as a member of the Arlington
County, Virginia PTA and currently chairs the Brooksby Village Resident Advisory
Council and is the president of the Massachusetts Life Care Association.
Jerome is the widower of Freda Levy and has two children, Ellen and Richard,
and one grandchild.
