Professional Societies Working for Engineering Educations, across the Globe

Abstract

There has been an exponential growth in the capacity and dimensions of technical education system, not only in India, but throughout the world. It is a well-known fact that Engineering Education forms the foundation upon which future of a nation is shaped. It is increasingly recognized that in the context of major economic and technological changes and with knowledge occupying center stage in human development, the system of higher education and technical education, in particular, should equip its products with adequate skills, values and attitudes, enabling its full participation in the emerging social, economic and cultural environment. It is apparent that many nations are conforming new policy and determining a process of Higher Education reforms in relation to WTO-GATS requirements.
