Fundamental Competencies for Engineers is an innovative and accessible textbook that introduces first year engineering students to the practice of engineering. It focuses on the development of a broad range of skills―from the 'soft' skills of teamwork and communication to the 'hard' skills of engineering design and mathematical modelling―and presents these as 'fundamental competencies' that all engineers must master in order to be successful. By using a fictious company, Brunel Group, students are exposed to situations that will likely arise in their careers as engineers.
