  • Abstract
    The Professional Development Degree adds a new dimension to continuing education possibilities for graduate engineers. It is a program developed for the purpose of allowing individual engineers to take better advantage of the wide variety of available educational opportunities by deliberately reducing the obstacles between him and those opportunities. The program is discussed from the viewpoint of these obstacles and the ideas and concepts introduced to minimize them.
