Essentially, Engineering training sucks all throughout the world even if American universities and colleges seem okay.

Do you have $700 to access the IEEE 802 standard that sets forth what over a hundred PhD Electrical Engineers decided would be important for the Ethernet which runs most of the Internet? IEEE 802.11 is Wireless. And then there's another IEEE standard regarding transmission lines.

How can we possibly expect our engineering students to be anything but helpless babies after schooling if they don't even see a Standard until 5 years in "the real world"?

It is an absolute sham that ABET and other accrediting organizations do not force universities to require that Engineering students spend SOME time in their many courses seeing actual industry standards, among other things.

This is no longer just a proposal for an engineering club.

It is a proposal for disrupting the whole idea of learning "engineering" for the "21st century". As if it matters what century it is when Roman engineers would still out-engineer us, any day of the week.
