Graduates from the College of Engineering serve Tennessee, the South, the nation, and other countries. They participate in industrial production, transportation, communications, and many governmental services, they do design, construction, and operational and research Work. The cultural and disciplinary values of an engineering educa- tion give the graduate an excellent preparation for life, whether he finds his career in engineering or in some other field. The need for well-qualified engineering graduates is great, and they are in strong demand. Present indications are that this will al- ways be the case, in View of the increasing importance of en- gineering in the national economy. The opportunities for a ca- pable graduate in any field of engineering appear to be almost unlimited. 35
