- Summary:
-
This report forms an integral part of a study conducted by the Committee on the Education and Utilization of the Engineer, under the auspices of the National Research Council. Five major tasks undertaken by the panel were: (1) defining engineering; (2) determining influences on the engineering community, including external influences and internal factors; (3) developing schematic flow diagrams that include the major sources, flows, and activities of the engineering community; (4) developing and describing a first-order model of the engineering community; and (5) providing an overview and assessment of 14 data bases used in the development of the diagram and model. "The Definition of Engineering and of Engineers in Historical Context"; "Trends in Engineering Enrollments and Degrees Granted"; and "Flow Diagrams" are provided in the appendices. (YP)
