Abstract

So much has been said in the past four or five years of the need for Great Britain to increase the numbers of her trained scientists and engineers, and so much emphasis has been put on training by industry, that the country as a whole is aware, if somewhat vaguely, of the urgency of the present national need. Whether there is a real awareness of the continuing nature of the need, is, however, far less certain; and I make this my apologia for attempting some further discussion of a position which, to engineers at least, is at present patently and painfully obvious. It must be remembered that only a few short years ago, engineering skill was at a discount and the engineer something of a social pariah; moreover, the higher his academic training, the further he was beyond the pale.
