have pushed for curricular changes inthe integration and teaching of engineering economy for graduates to be adequately prepared forindustry [1][4]. In particular, Rogers [1] summarizes the outcome of the ABET and ASEE studies.The ABET study found that there were inadequate levels of preparation for graduates in problemsolving, communicating and working in teams, and understanding the culture in which they work.Furthermore, the ASEE study noted inadequacy in knowledge, skills, and abilities in engineeringpractice for graduates in areas such as project management, economics and business, teamwork,decision-making, and critical thinking. As such, different teaching approaches of engineeringeconomy are being applied to help with the preparation of

While producing graduates ready to fill the role of a systems engineeris not realistic, it is feasible to train mechanical engineering graduates that can successfullyparticipate
