UNIVERSAL HUMAN VALUES FOR CONSCIOUSNESS DEVELOPMENT AS VALUES EDUCATION IN TECHNICAL EDUCATION

Abstract

The engineers and technologists are involved in various tasks during their work which can be considered the work for society. Whilst their task directly impacts the people and nature, as well as they are the part of family and nature. It is so important to have human values within engineers so that they can fruitfully contribute for the society and nature and live happily within family. There is need to incorporate these aspects in the curriculum of the technical education. The involvement of the engineering profession in general progress is linked with ethics and accountability. But there are some initial issues of integrating education in human values with professional engineering education. The paper proposes the values education along with technical education in the light of MadhysthDarshan. The current education is able to provide information & skills via the method of memorization & analysis; it fails to touch upon the basic aspects of human living. The objective of this paper is to bring the context of human living into the Technical education.
