Editorial Notes

Engineering Education:

Great attention has recently been focussed on the needs of and facilities for Engineering Education. Several proposals are under consideration as to the manner in which such education should be provided.

Emphasis is laid on the need of certain standards of technical education to qualify one for selection to certain posts in public or private service. But the standards imposed are often much higher than is necessary for the posts, or was required formerly. To provide those standards of education several institutions have recently arisen. Stringent requirements are imposed for entry into those institutions which have official recognition.
