The field of engineering economy provides these tools. In order to make asound decision, a three-phase approach to evaluate the risk of a project is necessary: 1. Identify the risk, or risks, of an investment project. 2. Analyze the identified risk(s) of the project. 3. Assess how the identified risks

As a practice oriented teaching school, GVSU highly emphasizes the culmination of thelearning process by the realistic execution of the principles and techniques taught in a course. Inthat tradition, this course employed a semester ending project as an important tool to develop theproper understanding of the course materials.This particular project idea involved improving the efficiency, performance and workenvironment at the Science, Technology, and Engineering Preview Summer (STEPS) camp heldat Grand Valley State University.

The primarycommonalities to all majors are a set of math, physics, chemistry, writing, and technology andsociety courses.
