It introduces the fundamental physical, chemical and material bases for all engineering work and presents the engineering design process using examples and hands-on projects.
- Organized in two parts to cover both the concepts and practice of engineering: Part I, Minds On, introduces the , fundamental physical, chemical and material bases for all engineering work while Part II, Hands On, provides opportunity to do design projects
- An Engineering Ethics Decision Matrix is introduced in Chapter 1 and used throughout the book to pose ethical challenges and explore ethical decision-making in an engineering context
- Lists of Top Engineering Achievements and Top Engineering Challenges help put the material in context and show engineering as a vibrant discipline involved in solving societal problems New to this edition:
- Additional discussions on what engineers do, and the distinctions between engineers, technicians, and managers (Chapter 1)
- ,New coverage of Renewable Energy and Environmental Engineering helps emphasize the emerging interest in Sustainable Engineering
- New discussions of Six Sigma in the Design section, and expanded material on writing technical reports
- Re-organized and updated chapters in Part I to more closely align with specific engineering disciplines
