EXTRACTED TEXT FROM PAGE:
countries as we advance, if we are to establish global communications and mutual understanding in the world of tomorrow. Now, what of the type of engineers? The vast bulk of engineers and scientists needed now differ little from their prewar forebears except that they would be required to operate in more specialized or functional fields in common with other strata of society. They require a higher standard of academic qualifications, higher mathematics, specialized knowledge of computer programming, data processing and other techniques. Outstanding intellects among the younger professionals will require experience in several fields to equip them for senior positions with an overall appreciation of the facets of network or systems engineering which I have not mentioned very much. All these will be essential. The lowest specialist levels will become increasingly concerned with precision engineering, while executive levels would be concerned with problems of coordination and balance of activities as a whole. That is the communications situation as I see it. IH-63
