WG1 had good integration with 2.01 MHCLG. The scope of WG1 was the competence required by engineering professionals engaged in design, build, test and maintenance of the fixed engineering assets that constitute life safety systems within 2.02 a Higher-Risk Residential Building (HRRB) and proposals for the Safety Case process. Engineering life safety systems are critical to the safety of occupants and fire and rescue services, and buildings must be seen as an integrated solution if the integrity of the life safety strategy is to be maintained. The choice, specification and performance of each individual element of the system or 2.03 collection of systems is critical to the overall safety of occupants. WG1 set out to define how the competence and professionalism to undertake these tasks could be better recognised and this included the need for improving the integration of systems and approaches. For residents to be safe and feel safe, WG1 identified a need to integrate the currently disparate engineering practices in HRRBs and provide a new coherence to

Dr. Evan is Associate Professor of Sociology and Industrial Management. He was formerly at Bell Telephone Laboratories and Columbia University. / ' 73 >t^ , Dewey ABSTRACT The engineering technician occupies a position in the occupational hierarchy intermediate between that of the engineer and that of the craftsman. His ambivalence regarding his status and the ambivalence of others towards him contribute to his marginal position. The marginality of the engineering techni- cian is also reflected in the heterogeneous nature of his work, the multiplicity of titles used to designate his work, his education and training, the rate and method of compensation, his self-image and the public images of his occupation. Various adapta- tions to the built-in role strains of his occupation are analyzed. The ratio of engineering technicians to engineers is markedly lower in the United States than it is in Great Britain, France, the Soviet Union, and West Germany, The cultural values placed on achievement and the college-centered character of the American educational system contribute to this shortage.

    ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT CAREER INFORMATION ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING & ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY: From the book: “Engineering Education and Practice in the United States - Engineering Infrastructure Diagramming and Modeling” Prepared by: Panel on Engineering Infrastructure Diagramming and Modeling, Committee on the Education and Utilization of the Engineer, Commission on Engineering and Technical Systems, National Research Council. Published by National Academy Press; Washington, D.C.; 1986; ISBN: 0-309-03639-9; Pages 74 - 75. Background: In the late 1970’s under the umbrella of what was then the Engineers’ Council for Professional Development (ECPD), now Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET), many of the engineering societies participated in a comprehensive review of definitions including that of engineering, the engineer, and the engineering technologist and technician. Their report entitled “The Engineering Team” was approved by the ECPD Board of Directors in 1979, and contained the following definitions and explanatory notes: ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING: Electrical Engineering is the profession in which a knowledge of the mathematical and natural sciences gained by study, experience and practice is applied with judgment to develop ways to utilize, economically, the materials and forces of nature for the benefit of mankind. Electrical Engineer: With a strong background in mathematics, the basic physical sciences, and the engineering sciences, the engineer must be able to interrelate engineering principles with economic, social, legal, aesthetic, environmental and ethical issues, extrapolating beyond the technical domain. The engineer must be a conceptualizer, a designer, a developer, a formulator of new techniques, a producer of standards - all to help meet societal needs. The engineer must plan and predict, systematize and evaluate - must be able to judge systems and components with respect to their relation to health, safety and welfare of people, and to loss of property.

  • A Review of Engineering Technician Education in Australia
    AC 2011-2740: A REVIEW OF ENGINEERING TECHNICIAN EDUCA- TION IN AUSTRALIA: David Dowling, University of Southern Queensland Professor David Dowling is passionate about helping engineering students learn and achieve their ca- reer goals. As Professor of Engineering Education at the University of Southern Queensland (USQ) his research and development activities are focused on enhancing curricula, and teaching and learning envi- ronments. Professor Dowling was Associate Dean (Learning and Teaching) from 1995 to until January 2009. He was a President of the Australasian Association for Engineering Education in 2005-2006, and was awarded an Australian Learning and Teaching Council (ALTC) Citation in 2008. David was the lead author of the recently published first year text: Engineering Your Future: An Australasian Guide. Professor Dowling is currently leading two major research projects: A study of engineering technician education in Australia, which was funded by a USQ Senior Fellowship; and The Define Your Discipline Project, an ALTC funded project that aims to develop a process that can be used by a discipline to de- velop detailed graduate outcomes for that discipline. During 2010 the project team has been working with industry and university stakeholders across Australia to develop a national set of graduate outcomes for environmental engineering programs. Page 22.95.1 Page c American Society for Engineering Education, 2011 A review of engineering technician education in Australia: Programs, pathways and perspectives Introduction The Dublin Accord1,2,3 is an international agreement that defines the educational base for Engineering Technicians and is used for the recognition of equivalence of those qualifications.

  • Chartered Status
    Chartered Status The chartered title can be held by those eligible people in the Member and Fellowship categories of Institute membership. The title Chartered Physicist is exclusive to the Institute of Physics. Chartered Engineer is maintained by the Engineering Council UK and Chartered Scientist by the Science Council. Chartered status stands for the highest standards of professionalism, up-to-date expertise, quality and safety, and for capacity to undertake independent practice and exercise leadership. As well as competence, the title denotes commitment to keep pace with advancing knowledge and with the increasing expectations and requirements for which any profession must take responsibility. Chartered status is the aspiration of members engaged at the leading edge of all fields of physics and its applications. Why Become Chartered? Physics is an integral part of our culture, providing the foundations for many scientific disciplines including chemistry, biology, the geo-sciences and engineering. The increase in wealth, economic globalisation, living standards and the quality of life in the 20th century was largely based on technological progress which in turn relied heavily on innovative research in physics. These trends are anticipated to continue and, indeed, strengthen in the 21st Century. As part of this the Institute has strengthened the standard for Chartered Physicist and made it a valuable tool for all employers (whether major multinationals on a recruitment cycle, SMEs or start- ups.). Chartered Physicists agree to be bound by a Code of Conduct that reflects best practice. The Code requires our members not only to show a high level of professionalism, but also to continually advance their competence through continuing professional development.

  • Who Speaks for Engineering Technology the Role of The
    Session 2546 Who Speaks for Engineering Technology - The Role of the Engineering Technology Council Walter W. Buchanan, Willard D. Bostwick Middle Tennessee State University/ Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis Abstract The national engineering technology community needs a voice. This article explores the role of the Engineering Technology Council (ETC) of the American Society for Engineering Education (A SEE) in providing a voice for the national engineering technology community. The article gives a brief history of the ETC and looks into what the ETC might do to enhance the position of engineering technology in the engineering spectrum, Introduction In 1970 Winston D. Purvine became the first chair of the Engineering Technology Council. The ETC was created to assess and recommend policies affecting the overall administration of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) accredited technical colleges and schools. The ETC can also be used to provide forums for discussion and an information exchange concerning problems and experiences of technical colleges and institutions, to represent and to speak on behalf of member technical colleges, and to cooperate with other segments of the Society on matters of common interest. 1 Although the ETC and the Engineering Technology Division (ETD) represent and are the voice of the engineering technology community within ASEE, it is generally recognized that the ETC has not become an effective voice for engineering technology the way the Engineering Dean’s Council has become for the engineering community. This is unfortunate since the first guiding principle of the ETC in performing its mission of promoting quality education in engineering technology is to speak collectively for engineering technology institutions.2 ABET Engineering technology has especially lacked an effective voice within the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology.
