Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Education in Engineering, Vol. 18 Without question, engineering and industrial expansion must go hand in hand. Engineering is also indispensable to normal national growth. It is not surprising, therefore, to find that engineers are playing a large part in the present period of unprecedented industrial development. It seems likely that the nation will enjoy a healthy growth for many years to come and that during this period the engineer will do an important work in constructing the facilities necessary for national life. For many years there has been a steady growth in the engineering schools, and their graduates have readily found places in the industrial world. Undoubtedly there will continue to be opportunities in the engineering field for ambitious young men who have a taste for the exact sciences that are the basis of engineering education, who possess imagination and initiative, and who are willing to subject themselves to the rigorous training necessary before they can gain a foothold in the engineering profession. As in many other professions there is always room at the top, altho there is at times an oversupply of mediocre engineers who are temperamentally unfitted for the engineering profession or who have been unwilling to apply themselves unremittingly to their work. It is not surprising that there should be a demand for engineers when one considers that the practice of engineering is so closely related to economic progress. Engineering is an ancient profession, but its modern development began with the invention of gunpowder and the great mechanical inventions, the compass and the printing press.
