Engineering and Public Policy

Sarah Bouazzaoui Charles B Daniels, PhD Engineering Management and Systems Engineering Old Dominion University AbstractIn the United States of America, public policies and public decision making associated with theengineering field are set by individuals who does not possess expertise and knowledge to carry outthese tasks [1]. Most of decision makers are lawyers and social scientists, not engineers [2]. Thepurpose of this paper is to analyze the various factors which either encourage or inhibit engineersfrom influencing and participating in public policy. In this study, a grounded theory approach willbe followed, data will be collected
