country’s ability to develop competitive quantitiesof engineers, equipped to tackle the complex challenges of the future, has come under question.These challenges are wicked and unknown and will force engineers to use collaborate and usetechnical skills to solve social problems. With this in mind, the National Academies ofEngineering launched the Engineer of 2020 project and charged its Committee on EngineeringEducation to develop a vision for engineering in 2020 and beyond. The Engineer of 2020 will becharacterized by 10 attributes.

The hopewas that this project would provide a less expensive approach to navigating through daily life,since this type of technology can be prohibitively expensive for many people, and can requiremore technological knowledge than many people possess.
