OK - So I've hit a stumbling block with my book. *hates research hate hate
hate*

I have a boy who wants to go to Oxbridge - this is 1960...

He's got an engineering kind of mind, but I don't think degrees in
"Engineering" were actually offered until the 1990's - so what sort of
carreer path would he have? anyone know?

Degree in Maths? or Physics? Then what? Not an apprentice?

Well, we're not British, but my mom's cousin's husband is an engineer, and he's around the same age as my parents, so he was out of college by 1970. It seems highly plausible to me that your boy could do it ;) Even computer engineering should have been around then.

Thank you! I shall look into that - that's a good idea...
