Abstract:

For structural engineers to be leaders in helping society meet its future global challenges, our profession must respond to developments by changing more rapidly and meaningfully that we can today. Our profession should be in a constant state of advancement, creativity, and self-improvement. We must shorten the innovation cycle. Key to achieving this state is to re-examine the relationship between practice, education, and research. The three must be thoroughly integrated.
