Engineering Education and Global Impact Engineering Education and Curriculum Development Historical Studies and Socio-cultural Analysis

Abstract

Engineering artefacts play major roles in the evolution of mankind and culture. Engineering artefacts have evolved. Their natures have changed as Man has changed. Today, the engineering profession and the education of engineers are challenged by the rapidly changing nature of those engineering systems which determine what is meant by `modern technology' and which make possible new industries of global importance. Analysis of the latest generation of strategic innovations requires an analytical history of technology, and a practically useful philosophy to interpret the changing nature of engineering. The advent of `technoscience' will probably make engineering the exemplary science in the next century.
