Summary This publication is composed of the summary of discussion and the papers prepared for the Nuffield Canadian Seminar. The seminar, entitled "The Costs of Post-Secondary Education in a Technological Society," was held at Cap-Rouge, near Quebec City, 25-27 June 1971. The seminar reviewed the response of developed nations to the important and difficult challenges confronting post-secondary education in this technological age. It brought together heads of post-secondary institutions and educational advisory bodies, financial and educational government officials, educational researchers, and businessmen. Approximately fifty per cent of the participants were from Canada with the remainder from Australia, Belgium, France, Great Britain, Norway, United States, West Germany, and from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. La présente publication comprend les exposés présentés lors du colloque canadien Nuffield ainsi qu'un résumé des discussions. Le colloque intitulé "Le cout de l'enseignement post-secondaire dans une société technologique" s'est tenu à Cap-Rouge, près de Québec, les 25, 26, et 27 juin, 1971. Le colloque a étudié la façon dont les nations industrialisées ont abordé les solutions aux problèmes de l'enseignement post-secondaire à notre époque technologique. II a réuni des responsables d'institutions d'enseignement post-secondaire, des conseillers en éducation, des hauts fonctionnaires des finances et de l'éducation, des spécialistes de la recherche dans le domaine de l'éducation et des hommes d'affaires. Environ la moitié des participants étaient du Canada; les autres étaient venus de l'Australie, la Belgique, la France, la Grande-Bretagne, la Norvège, les États-Unis, l'Allemagne de l'Ouest, ainsi que de l'Organisation de coopération et de développement économiques
