As a debate over theengineering curriculum grew, S.C. Hollister, president of ASEE, commissioned a review ofengineering education, which would become known as the Grinter Report.A primary recommendation of the Grinter Report was for engineering programs to increase themathematics, physics, and engineering sciences content of the curriculum (Grinter, 1955). Adraft of the report also recommended that engineering be bifurcated (Seely, 1995). One formwould focus more on the scientific and theoretical aspects of engineering and educate engineersworking in research and design for the
