dc.description.abstract Selection of fields in graduate and technician courses in engineering is a problem, specially found in Sri Lanka • There is probably no research work reported on issues and strategies to overcome this problem • Issues of field selection in Sri Lanka for engineering courses of degree and technician levels are discussed in this thesis • Statistical data available and collected for the work are analysed and evaluated • Recommendations are made for modalities of field selection for category mentioned The entry criteria, methods used and performance will be studied by relating the input and output data. Analysis will be done taking into account the restrictions imposed by delays in results, district quota etc. and their effect on the individuals and society as a whole. Personality factors of the students such as home background, financial problems and temperament have not been considered. In addition, the standard of each institution, the quality of teaching, training and methods of evaluation were not taken into account. Even though these factors bear an effect on the outcome, they are not easily measurable in quantitative terms and as such they have been left out. en_US
