Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolution of engineering education, specifically within the mining sector, from the 19th century to current times. The author argues that in recent decades, engineering courses have become increasingly shaped by technical vocational training at the expense of foundational sciences. The shift is described as occurring when the author notes that in his day, it was possible for engineering students to graduate without ever having seen a mine. This has led to graduates entering the workforce with limited problem-solving capabilities and a lack of the high-level thinking skills necessary for innovation in engineering. To counter this, the author calls for a return to a more science-focused engineering education, one that emphasizes core principles over merely imparting technical knowledge. The author supports his argument by providing historical context on the development of engineering education and by drawing on his own experience as a professor of mining engineering. The book concludes that by revisiting the educational models of the past and balancing them with the needs of the present, we can pave the way for a new generation of well-rounded engineers capable of tackling complex challenges and driving meaningful progress in the field. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781528540759_0
