Engineering Education: From Apprenticeship to Degree
Four milestones in the institutional answer to applied science: if engineering rests on theory, apprenticeship alone can no longer produce an engineer.

Four milestones in the institutional answer to applied science: if engineering rests on theory, apprenticeship alone can no longer produce an engineer.
Nine milestones over a century and a half, at the end of which a complete engineering discipline could be built from results none of whose discoverers were engineers.
A structured reference series covering fifty-eight engineering milestones from the first engineered cities to the Rainhill trials, organised by engineering problem rather than b…
A structured reference series covering twenty-six engineering milestones between 1845 and 1910, organised by engineering problem rather than by date.
Seven milestones in roughly a century, after which an engineer could calculate in advance what had previously only been learned by building.
Four milestones in the first industry assembled deliberately out of laboratory physics, and the first to design against a transmission medium that could not be inspected.
A structured reference series tracing how engineering stopped learning only from experience and began deriving results from science, with electrical engineering as the paradigm …
Six milestones including the single most consequential idea in the whole set: that there are general laws and that they can be known.
Six milestones that together constitute the largest single change in this set: the replacement of human muscle as the primary source of mechanical power.
