The engineering core curriculum typically represents those engineering science courses that are commonly laken by most engineering undergraduates. This project is intended to investigale whether improved learning is realized when studentd arc taughl engineering science from a design perspective. The design perspective requires thal studentd undersland how the ullimale product or service musl achieve itd engineering objective while satisfying certain economic goals.

provided the important bridge between the pioneering effort of Arthur Wellington in his engineering economy work of the 1870's and the first publication of the Principles of Engineering Economy in 1930 by Eugene L. Grant. The development of the field of engineering economy over this 50 year period was pivotal to the integration of economic analysis as a necessary element in engineering education. Eventually, the need for an economic perspective has become a routine part of the day-today engineering analysis utilized in today's competitive world.
