He was also the leading German proponent of reform of engineering educationaway from overly abstract and theoretical instruction, equal standing for newer technicaluniversities with traditional institutions of higher learning, and improvement in theprofessional and social standing of the engineer in German society.Riedler’s report singled out programs at Cornell University, Massachusetts
