how engineeringeducation became science-based. By learning from that example, perhaps we can speed up theadoption of appropriate foundational studies in software engineering programs, allowing us tomove more rapidly from a craft to a profession.Traditional engineering moved from what is called the “shop culture” to the “school culture”over a period of 200 years. Today “shop” engineering is relegated to trade schools, andprofessional engineering is the province of the colleges and universities. We will trace themathematical advances that supported this change of perspective, and outline the correspondingshift in the educational environment as well as the sometimes-reactionary resistance to thischange.
