Abstract

Professional engineers in Australia in the 1990s have to cope with technological and social change that involves different ways of thinking about their roles as members of a profession, and with great social change in the organisation of engineering work. Engineering-based organisations and the professional engineering occupation are systems in transition. The decade of the 1990s is leading the engineering profession into a new era that is likely to exhibit many differences from the past. The knee of the curve of change was about 1980. From that time professional engineering work organisation changed drastically, especially in managerial and leadership roles as rationalist ideologies have wrought many changes that impact adversely upon the ability of engineers to practise effectively.
