Engineering Economics provides an excellent venue for students to learn aboutthe social and economic benefits of technology. Internet enabled microfinance is one example.The concept of a class making microenterprise loans was inspired by university finance classesthe author heard about in which students invested $1000 (many years ago) in the stock marketand managed a portfolio.The initial goal for this project was for the students to gain a good understanding ofmicrofinance, especially as an example of a business activity that alleviates poverty.

reporting of fields of study andprogram completions. “Engineering/Industrial Management” was moved in 2000 from CIP 14(Engineering) to CIP 15 (Engineering-related Technologies/Technicians). In so doing, the federalgovernment changed engineering management from an Engineering field of study to anEngineering Technology field.The fact that this change occurred in 2000 is well documented. What is not available is why thechange was made. There are several important reasons that the engineering managementcommunity should attempt to reverse this change. This paper explores a strategy for how torequest and influence a return to CIP 14. Making the change will not be easy.We recommend the return of most engineering management programs to CIP 14.3001, the pre

economy is not a requiredcourse for any engineering major at this university, but a junior level engineering economy courseis offered as an elective by a graduate program in the engineering management and systemsengineering department. This project is a part of a two credit-hour course in exploration ofengineering and technology, and it, through this project, provides the only exposure to engineeringeconomy for most of the graduates. Students used an imaginary sum of $10,000 in making short-term investments in a mixture of stocks and a savings account. They learned how to calculateeffective annual return using three methods: manual calculation, programing with MS Excel, andan on-line rate of return calculator.IntroductionTime value of money (TVM

Diversescenarios are analyzed, requiring students to identify key issues, evaluate solutions, and considerconsequences, while structured discussions promote debate and challenge assumptions. In thiscourse, students analyze scenarios and explore the intersection between product development,project management, and the lifecycle and societal impact of technology. Real-world case studiesdemand in-depth analysis of technology-related dilemmas, challenging students to considerethical dimensions and balance economic, social, and technological factors.To reinforce engineering economic concepts, weekly activities in project management topicsallow the students to analyze engineering economics and integrate answers

Additionally, Harris and Kittur [2]emphasize the need forundergraduate engineering students to leverage generative AI, such as large language models, tostay competitive in the rapidly evolving technological landscape. However, concerns about theethical use and accuracy of AI-generated content persist, suggesting that AI's integration intocurricula must be carefully managed to avoid undermining academic integrity [3], [4].

Programs such as civil engineering include an explanation of concepts andprinciples in project management and engineering economics in student outcomes [1]. Thecurriculum must explain some, but not necessarily all, of the key concepts and principles, andthere is no obligation to assess students’ ability to explain the key concepts and principles.Most undergraduate engineering programs introduce economics through a complete course
