Uniting the basic concepts of engineering design, project evaluation techniques, and accounting methods, Engineering Money delivers an approachable view of finance that gives engineers at all levels the resourcefulness to account for every dollar--and make every cent count. --Book Jacket

Text of Note

When starting out on their careers, most engineers are unaware that successful engineering projects depend as much on money as they do on technology and that the two are inextricably linked. They eventually learn on the job that money is the only common measure we have for labor, materials, and energy, and it is therefore essential to managing any project. Traditional engineering education generally ignores financial matters. This book fills the gap by preparing young engineers on the role finance plays in their projects before they embark on their careers
