摘要
This article presents a summary of an audience-panel member open discussion session conducted at the 2010 ASEE Annual Conference in Louisville, Kentucky. The discussion centered around three topics: concepts and techniques to include in all undergraduate engineering economy courses; current and future delivery systems most helpful in discipline-specific and service courses; and, some action items to move forward. After the conference, each panel member developed a brief statement on a related topic of his or her choice. Included in the article following the discussion summary, the statements focus on several current engineering economy topics: how we teach and should teach engineering economy; use of spreadsheets and web-based materials in teaching; and, ABET guidelines concerning coverage of economic principles.
