Why Engineer?

Obey the speech of Scientist

“Too long have our schools of applied science and technology been regarded as affording an inferior substitute for classical colleges. Too long have the graduates of such schools been spoken of as though they had acquired the arts of livelihood at some sacrifice of mental, intellectual culture, and grace of life”
- Francis A. Walker
President, MIT, 1891

“It must be considered that there is nothing more difficult to carry out, nor more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to handle, than to initiate a new order of things.”
- Machiavelli

“The mind is not a receptacle; information is not education. Education is what remains after the information that has been taught has been forgotten.”
- Robert M. Hutchins

…and science, history, and literature are but means used to accomplish this desired end. True education seeks to make men and women not only good mathematicians, proficient linguists, profound scientists, or brilliant literary lights, but also honest people with virtue, temperance, and brotherly love. It seeks to make men and women who prize truth, justice, wisdom, benevolence, and self-control as the choicest acquisitions of a successful life.”
- David O. McKay

“Before I came here I was confused about this subject. Having listened to your lecture I am still confused, but on a higher level.”
- Enrico Fermi

“The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function. One should, for example, be able to see that things are hopeless and yet be determined to make them otherwise.”
- F. Scott Fitzgerald

“The object of a liberal education is not to teach the young all they will ever need to know. It is to give them the habits, ideas, and techniques that they need to continue to educate themselves. Thus, the object of formal institutional liberal education in youth is to prepare the young to educate themselves throughout their lives.”
- Robert M. Hutchins
