The Executive
Director of SPE dealing with thousands of letters from previously
disadvantaged learners wishing to enter the engineering profession.
Unfortunately most of them have not had guidance as to what subjects
are needed and the correct standards or grades required for university
entrance.
Various articles and
letters of appeal to Captains of Industry, have not brought forth the
anticipated support.
Foreign governments
appear to be disinterested in giving bursaries for engineering and
science students and concentrate on giving help to students studying
the social sciences.
We continually try
to educate the powers that be to realise that engineers are creators
of wealth and that the successful countries around the world have
reached their positions because of the powerful influence of
engineering.
