| Research Abstract |
1. Education and Training of Engineers
I published three articles on the Education and Training of Engineers in the United Kingdom, two are in the cases of the members of the Institution of Civil Engineers, and one is in the case of the members of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. I used the copies of the proposition papers of Candidates seeking election into these Institutions as sources.
2. Engineering Education in Higher Technical Institutions
I inquired into the Calendars of and the Reports and Returns from Universities and University Colleges, and the Reports of the Board of Education on Technical Institutions. I compiled the Statistics of Engineering Education in Higher Technical Institutions as the Report of this Research Project.
3. Training Systems of Engineers in Engineering Works
I could find a good source on the Training Systems of Engineers in Engineering Works in the early 20th Century, and I am analyzing this source now.
4. Science Education in Secondary Schools
I am inquiring into the introduction of Science Education in Public Schools after the middle of 19th Century, and the impact of the Technical Instruction Act, 1889 and the Local Taxation (Customs and Excise) Act, 1890 on Science Education in Secondary Schools.
