Riassunto

This small volume is meant to provide a basis for a ten week seminar course on professional issues of interest to undergraduate engineering students. The topics raised are not fully explored, leaving an opportunity for further discussion and discovery in class. Outside readings and research topics are suggested in the Essay Questions at the end of each chapter. A course based on this book can easily be used to assess students on several program outcomes required by ABET for accreditation purposes. These outcomes include: professional and ethical responsibilities an ability to communicate effectively the global, economic, environmental and societal impact of engineering solutions life-long learning contemporary issues Chapter topics include: Will You be Ready to Graduate? Your Earnings Potential Societal Expectations of the Engineering Professional The Corporate Enterprise The Employment Contract Patents Outsourcing and the Global Marketplace *****Unsolicited reviews***** "We have no textbook at present for our Senior Seminar course. It seems to be a very fine book and it appears that it would be of significant value to graduating seniors. May I congratulate you for your contribution in helping to educate our engineering students." William E. Simon, Ph.D., P.E. Professor of Mechanical Engineering University of Louisiana at Lafayette "I'm really happy to see a book like this made available to better inform and prepare engineering students on the non-technical aspects of beginning a career in engineering." James McNames Professor, ECE Portland State University ***************************
