Management for Engineers Technologists and Scientist
Management for Engineers Technologists and Scientist
Description
Management for Engineering Practitioners has been updated to reflect the latest approach by the engineering fraternity and the Engineering Council of South Africa (ECSA). The aim is to expose engineering practitioners to include the expanded context in which engineering is actually practiced in the world, expanding the boundaries of the hard-core engineering design aspects as the focus of the major part of their training. Engineering practitioners can then understand the multitude of additional aspects in the workplace with a contextual understanding of the different managerial processes and the role(s) engineering practitioners need to play in these processes. This edition has been substantially revised with several new specialist authors contributing on the latest developments, practices and regulations in industry. The content of the book covers different aspects influencing the way businesses operate to be profitable and sustainable and covers topics such as the environment in which technical people work, managing technology and innovation, sustainability and ethics. Resources for prescribing lecturers include comprehensive PowerPoint slides and additional questions and solutions.
