ENGINEERING: ART OR SCIENCE
1. Engineers, particularly in the older age, like to think of their work as more of an art than a science: Their motives are not difficult to understand. Until recently, the Arts had a great deal more social status than science. And the description of one’s work as an art leaves the impression that it depends more on one’s personal talents than on anything to be learnt from others. This has a special attraction for the self-made man. What is more, the dictionary supports this interpretation, for it defines art as human skill. In this sense, engineering is certainly an art; but so is chemistry or riding a bicycle. Skill, after all, is needed for practically everything. Thus we have a spectrum of human activities. An activity can produce extremely gratifying results without using any systematic knowledge. But science, which is systematic, enables each scientist to build directly upon the work of others. Science is essentially a social activity while art is based on individual talent. This is not to say that science excludes talent. Newton and Einstein must be granted as much personal genius as any artist. However, the inestimable value of science is that the systematic combination of many individual contributions adds up to a great deal more than their arithmetic sum.
2. This, then, is a background against which we must decide whether today engineering is an

2. This, then, is a background against which we must decide whether today engineering is an art or a science. It is necessary to admit that a century ago it would have been foolish to call it anything but an art or craft. Though scientific revolution had preceded an industrial one, the early engineers knew little and cared less about formal science.
3. But by 1860 physics and chemistry, at least, were beginning to catch up with engineering, as biology was catching up with medicine. The German chemical industry was perhaps the first to introduce science-based engineering, with well-known results. Since then advances in many branches of engineering without a sound base in science have become almost unthinkable.
