Proceedings of the Eighth Annual Meeting of the Society for the Promotion of Engineering Education held in New York City, July 2–3, 1900

WHEN technical education is so much in the air, and so many consider that it is a cure for all our industrial troubles, it is interesting to see what another nation thinks of its own system of education. In America there exists a society for the promotion of engineering education, and we have the pleasure of reading their eighth volume of Proceedings—that of last year. The members of this association are those who are, or have been, engaged in responsible positions in the work of engineering instruction. There is a regular meeting for several days once every year, the whole of the papers which are read dealing with education as applied to industry. Proceedings of the Eighth Annual Meeting of the Society for the Promotion of Engineering Education held in New York City, July 2–3, 1900.. Vol. viii. Pp. xxviii + 377. (New York: Engineering News Publishing Company, 1900.) Price 2.50 dollars.
