BOOK
Round out your technical engineering abilities with the business
know-how you need to succeed
Technical competency, the "hard side" of engineering and other
technical professions, is necessary but not sufficient for
success in business. Young engineers must also develop
nontechnical or "soft-side" competencies like communication
marketing, ethics, business accounting, and law and management in
order to fully realize their potential in the workplace
This updated edition of Engineering Your Future is the go-to
resource on the nontechnical aspects of professional practice for
engineering students and young technical professionals alike. The
content is explicitly linked to current efforts in the reform of
engineering education including ABET's Engineering Criteria 2000
ASCE's Body of Knowledge, and those being undertaken by AAEE
AIChE and ASME. The book treats essential nontechnical topics
you'll encounter in your career, like self-management
interpersonal relationships, teamwork, project and total quality
management, design, construction, manufacturing, engineering
economics, organizational structures, business accounting, and
much more. Features new to this revised edition include:
*
A stronger emphasis on management and leadership
*
A focus on personal growth and developing relationships
*
Expanded treatment of project management
*
Coverage of how to develop a quality culture and ways to
encourage creative and innovative thinking
*
A discussion of how the results of design, the root of
engineering, come to fruition in constructing and manufacturing
the fruit of engineering
*
New information on accounting principles that can be used in your
career-long financial planning
*
An in-depth treatment of how engineering students and young
practitioners can and should anticipate, participate in, and
ultimately effect change
If you're a student or young practitioner starting your
engineering career, Engineering Your Future is essential reading
