The large number and known career pa terns of engineers make them an important target population for the use of videotechnology in programs of continuing professional education. Currently, universities use videobased instruction with engineering students OD and off camvus. A variety of signal delivery systems are used to link job sites to campuses. Projections of video course enrollment in engineering shows continuing steady growth even with present technology. New developments including videocassettes, videodisc, cable television, satellite distribution, interactive linking of input/receiving stations and computer control of cable delivered systems can accelerate this growth. Expansion could also he facilitated by cooperative development of curricula by engineering colleges, expanded participation of engineering faculty and increased capital investment in video publishing.
