  • Abstract
    An educator gives a first-hand account of the decades that shaped EE education. Following a brief look at the period from 1900 to 1930, the author then considers the electronic revolution that began during the 1930s, the curriculum during World War II, the challenge of the computer, and the liberal education of the engineering student.
