  • Abstract
    This paper offers the author´s personal reflections on the past 50 years of research in engineering management. I suggest that the most important development in this field has been the continuing broadening of the relevant bodies of knowledge and the increased attention paid by scholars in the pertinent social science and systems disciplines to issues involving technology and its management. The paper concludes with a brief speculation on the future of the field.
