The Panel on Technology Education was one of four panels established by the Committee on the Education and Utilization of the Engineer of the National Research Council. This panel's task was to investigate the technology aspects of the preparation of engineers in the United States. This report deals with: (1) "The History of Technical Institutes"; (2) "Engineering Technology and Industrial Technology"; (3) "Engineering Technology and Engineering"; (4) "Engineering Technology Education"; (5) "Cooperative Education and Engineering Technology"; (6) "Accreditation, Certification, and Licensing"; (7) "Manpower Considerations"; (8) "The Impact of High Technology"; and (9) "Allocating Resources for Engineering Technology." An executive summary provides a set of recommendations developed as a part of the panel's work. (TW)
The vitality of the innovation economy in the United States depends on the availability of a highly educated technical workforce. A key component of this workforce consists of engineers, engineering technicians, and engineering technologists. However, unlike the much better-known field of engineering, engineering technology (ET) is unfamiliar to most Americans and goes unmentioned in most policy discussions about the US technical workforce. Engineering Technology Education in the United States seeks to shed light on the status, role, and needs of ET education in the United States.
