.... There is also an inherent difference in objectives here. In the late 1960s, I asked one of my better EE professors why they taught us so much theory and so little of what was actually being used in industry at the time. His answer was quite succinct - the stuff actually used today would be obsolete in a few years, but the theory would endure for an entire career. So, the companies wanted short-term knowledge (so the new employee could "hit the ground running"), but the theory is the better investment from the employee's perspective. .... It's also by far the better investment for the company as well. -- |
