Associations with the design process,which is closely related, are also addressed in this paper.In addition to a re-emphasis of the decision process, it is also argued that engineering economyeducators must integrate research advances into the curriculum. While a variety ofbreakthroughs have occurred with relevant applications in replacement analysis and capitalbudgeting, it appears that these advances do not make it into the classroom. College anduniversity educators have the responsibility to disseminate the important advances of our field.The goal of this paper is to provide both motivation

The paper also discusses the study methodology, and theresults from the initial data collection. One goal is to present the methodology for comment thatwill help us improve it. A second goal is to identify colleagues who are interested in workingwith us to expand the range and number of engineers and organizations that are observed.Engineers defined.
