Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Engineer His Work and His Education This book is dedicated to those who are considering engineering as a life work. Over fifty thousand students are now studying engineering in colleges and universities of the United States, and about fifteen thousand are each year entering such training courses. They should know something about engineering as a profession and about the college course which helps them to prepare for it. The recent investigation of engineering education carried out with the support of the Carnegie Corporation through the initiative of the Society for the Promotion of Engineering Education has disclosed that too frequently the applicant for an engineering course has an erroneous or a very vague notion of the nature of engineering practice. This investigation showed that something should be done to guide the boy to make a wise decision in choosing a life work. A number of valuable pamphlets have been prepared by various institutions for the use of high-school boys, their parents, teachers, principals, and superintendents. The writer edited one of these and found a large demand for it. Other institutions have had similar experience.
