Engineering Education: The Objective in Engineering Education
The ultimate aim of education, especially in a democracy, must be the advancement of the moral, intellectual, and physical standard of all the people for the benefit of all the people. The Greek philosopher, Plato, formulated the general concept by stating: "Good education is that which gives to the body and to the soul all the perfections of which they are capable." Modern democracy, however, makes even this formulation broader by emphasizing service to society as the basis of Plato's conception.
