| dc.description | Engineering education is of paramount importance in creating technical manpower for the industrial development of a country. It is believed that technology can indeed resolve many of our problems. The technologies which may have greatest impact upon the society in the next 20 years may be : fuel cells, coal conversion, solar photovoitics, microprocessors, optics, lasers and robotics. In industry the search would be for productivity - improving technologies including quality and innovation in the broadest sense, that lead to more competitive products in domestic and world market. Computerization will, of course, bring in more output but also will bring in a more thorough basis for what the engineer is accomplishing - a more accurate performance, which allows new products to be brought on more rapidly. There will be need for Computer Science and Electronic Engineers for the high technology thrusts of the future. But there is always the need for the fundamental technologies which lack the glamour and publicity of the spectacular achievements. We should see that we do not wind up with a shortage of Engineers and Technicians to do the so-called mundane tasks. Integrating these basic knowledge with high technology inputs and applying them to manufacturing problems will be a formidable challenge. Engineering Education system will have to be preparing students with threshold knowledge, but continuing to maintain that which has proven to be valuable. Curriculum reviews and restructuring relevant courses will be a constant challenge. Manufacturing and productivity will be gaining importance - and all engineering disciplines - Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics, Industrial, Civil, etc. will have to be marshalled to meet our productivity challenges. With the existing and added facilities and in conjuction with a core of key courses involving areas such as : Production and Control, Data Management,Communications, and General Software Developments, Engineering Education system should be able to produce manufacturing oriented engineer which is an absolute requirement to meet the challenges ahead of us. | - |
