Our age is seen as being characterized by the dominance of various advanced technologies and their related innovations in the fields of microelectronics, new materials and biotechnology. This paper examines how high-technology innovations will change the structure of industries and that of the technologies themselves as well as the related resources that will be needed, and discusses steps to cope with this need. High-technology innovations shorten the path from science to technology with software technology playing a large note in facilitating the transition. To cope with the need for human resources in order to meet the ongoing and foreseen technology changes, the following measures are suggested:(1) continuous re-education; (2) accruing the specialization of the organizations devoted to the education of engineers and diversifying the contents of this education; (3) employing mid-career staff on a regular basis, encouraging the training of women engineers, and resorting to foreign staff; (4) improving personnel administration and the treatment given to engineers.
