In
successful companies, the professional staff includes
not only experts in engineering and experts in management,
but also experts in the integration of those disciplines.
Engineers entrusted with leadership roles will require
the knowledge of tools not found in many undergraduate
curricula. These include analytical and quantitative
tools for decision making, including statistical and
operations research techniques. Linked with these topics
are issues such as marketing, organizational behavior,
and quality. They are ultimately integrated in the study
of project management and the management of technological
innovation. |
