The Navy’s first formal advanced education program, and predecessor of today’s Naval Postgraduate School, was the School of Marine Engineering at Annapolis, established by a Secretary of the Navy General Order in 1909.
The first civilian professor, Dr. Ralph Root, was hired in 1913. A mathematician and namesake of Root Hall, Prof. Root provided a first-hand account of the institution’s evolution from its origins to the first year of World War II in a paper titled, “Mathematics and Mechanics in the Postgraduate School at Annapolis,” which was presented in September 1942 and then published in the April 1943 issue of The American Mathematical Monthly.
