As the immediate past Chairman of CEI, your President asked me to say something about the engineering profession and about CEI itself. I have chosen the rather pompous title of “The Engineer in British Society Today”, but I hope I will cover the subject in a manner which will be of some interest and at least provoke a little discussion. You will find I make little direct reference to aerospace, because this evening I am concerning myself with the engineer in all his disciplines. Incidentally, when I talk of the engineer or the profession, I am not talking of the Chartered Engineer alone. The Engineering profession includes both Chartered and Technician Engineers, who must work together as a team, each supporting the other. Indeed their functions often overlap and may be interchangeable.
