Spectral lines: The ASEE “goals” report

The American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) recently issued the preliminary report of its “Goals of Engineering Education” study. This study, which has been under way for the last three years, has focused on the current practices in engineering education in the United States. The presently available report
^∗
is a preliminary one which has been distributed for comment before the final report is issued in the spring of 1966. Although the report relates only to engineering education in the United States, it will be of considerable interest to all engineers and in particular, to engineering educators. The “Recommendations” section of the preliminary report appears on pages 84 and 85 of this issue.
