Abstract :
Engineering education today is being examined from within as well as from without, with the object of adapting it to meet more adequately the changing demands of a profession broad and diverse although relatively young. With no precedent or past experience to serve as a guide, engineering education necessarily has developed by its own efforts through trial and experiment. This paper describes the educational methods adopted at Harvard Engineering School in an effort to solve the problem of training engineering graduates for the varied responsibilities that they may be called upon to assume.
