The latter includes bothnatural resources and the environment. Technology affects all three and a broad, integrativeunderstanding is necessary in support of the public interest. Beyond that, special competence isrequired in the scientific understanding of natural resources and the environment, which are thefoundation of all human activity; and the integration of this knowledge into practical designs thatsupport and sustain human development.

The group size for eachproject ranged from 5-6 students and was purposely multi-disciplinary in their organization. Theprojects were chosen to fit into the following four tracks: education outreach, communityservice, appropriate technology for overseas, and assistive technologies. There were two facultyadvisers: one responsible for three groups and the other for four groups.In order to track the progress of a groups’ effort, documentation from EPICS was used withlimited editing.

This researchdoes not propose to advance the body of knowledge in the field of engineering economic analysis,rather it proposes to advance the awareness of the topic in other engineering disciplines and tomore carefully integrate the material into the engineering curriculum. In the first phase, anengineering economic analysis needs assessment in the eight engineering disciplines on theUniversity’s main campus (Oakland) and the engineering technology program at the Johnstownbranch campus was done.
