Abstract
What is the structure of the electrical engineering profession? What are the chief branches of the profession recognized today, and relatively how many engineers are engaged primarily in each branch? What are the relationships of each branch to the other special branches? In an effort to clarify these questions, a quantitative study has been made of the membership of the A.I.E.E. and is reported herewith. On the basis of his findings, Dean Hoover makes several recommendations for improving the nomenclature of electrical engineers. Discussion is invited.
