SUMMARY:The Rise of Engineering
DESCRIPTION:We think of engineering as a story of national progress. India’s engineers: products of post-colonial ambition\, symbols of a modernising nation. \nThe story is far older\, and more global. \nRecent scholarship has found that engineering grew into a formal profession across the world through empire\, transnational corporations\, and the movement of experts\, artefacts\, and know-how across borders. The colonial infrastructure projects that shaped India were not local achievements\, but nodes in a global network. \nIn this talk\, Professor Aparajith Ramnath traces that global history and asks what it means for the way we imagine engineering\, and engineers\, in society today. \nThis lecture is a part of Azim Premji University’s Public Lecture Series. \nPresented by: \n \n
