The impertinence of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers

Abstract

It appears reasonable to assume that the legitimate functions in the field of education of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers on the one hand, and the mechanical engineering departments of our Universities and Technical Colleges on the other, are for the Institution to decide what shall be taught and for the engineering departments to provide the physical means (i.e. buildings, staff and equipment) and the educational know‐how (i.e. teaching methods) for giving young engineers the kind of knowledge the Institution requires.
