State University (TSU) were asked to participate in a mass casualty simulation. Becauseof the courses we teach, the Engineering Technology Department was interested in thesimulation and in performing a cost analysis of the simulation. In this particular simulation, thestudents evaluated the likelihood of different types of injuries that would occur and costsassociated with the different types of treatments. What we found was that the students had a hardtime understanding how they could account for the different types of injuries and costs. Thiscaused this part of the project to be protracted while the students were retaught materials theywere presumed to have already known.As stated before, cost analysis is an important element of engineering

In fact, it has been reported that visual aids can improvelearning by up to 400%.4 Also, published literature reports that as much as 65% of the generalpopulation of the world are visual learners5. By visual, it is not only meant actual graphics, butalso descriptions or analogies that can be easily pictured or imagined. According to Jonassen andGrabowski6, visual learners prefer graphs

On the other hand, the topic of aseparate course in engineering economics is not seriously considered for inclusion ascurricula are revised.Only a few engineering discipline curricula include formal training in project costing andeconomic analysis; usually, industrial, manufacturing, civil, petroleum, and engineeringmanagement. Commonly, other curricula, such as, mechanical, chemical, nuclear, andelectrical usually include some of the concepts and

The course, Capital Project and Cost Analysis forTechnology, covers the essentials of engineering economics focused to meet the needs ofworking technology managers. The paper reviews distance graduate student opinion on learningobjectives and course content. It also examines the use of various distance educationmethodologies employed to deliver this course to online students.IntroductionEngineering economics is an essential tool for undergraduate engineering and technologystudents, but is even more essential

Each of these topics cover issues associated with making a decision. Forexample, within many public policy projects there are difficulties in quantifying the benefits andcosts (which can be more subjective than quantitative), they often have long life horizons (e.g.,parks, bridges, roads) which make it

This model for the first time provided a completeworking model of the economy that could be used to explain how changes in one sector of theeconomy (e.g. growth in output or changes in productivity) would impact other sectors. To fitwith the analysis technique he was using, Leontief used linear relationships between inputs andoutputs (“production functions”) in each industry.Chenery, part of Leontief’s Harvard Economic Research Project created in 1948 to extend thework of his earlier input-output efforts, took on the task of producing better empirical productionfunctions using an engineering understanding of how inputs are transformed into outputs.

In this way, students can connect theirengineering training and skills to the challenges of creating a sustainable infrastructure fortomorrow.During the second portion of the course, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), students learn the theoryof LCA as well as obtain some hands on experience by applying this approach to compare twosimilar products using Gabi software.

It is helpful for students to see how much diversity exists even within a restricted content area, and it is easier for the professor to manage the discussion in a way that promotes understanding of specific course material or assignments. However, student enthusiasm noticeably diminishes as content restrictions increase. • Occasionally, students are instructed to find an article in a technical journal (in print) rather than on the internet.
