Abstract
Lens design is one of the most basic activities in optical engineering. The subject requires an active working knowledge of all aspects of optics, and is a profession changing with the rise of new techniques in modern optics. The approach to teaching the subject is discussed, and the changes that have taken place over the past few decades are described.
