Abstract :
An engineering education will Fail in its purpose if it gives mere formulaic information; it must build a man who can accept the responsibilities a modern world thrusts upon him, says this engineering-college dean who describes the program established at one university to give the young engineer not only the technical knowledge his profession demands, but also that broader education required to enable him to meet the demands of this modern world.
