Material Detail

This engineering communication overview, created by Greg Heitkamp and published by the Engineering Technology Pathways project, gives students background in the "ability to express what is going on to different parts of a project" in engineering so that the project goes smoothly. A number of different approaches are discussed, including concurrent engineering and integrated product development (IPD), along with the benefits and disadvantages of each. This is a helpful introduction for engineering students to become acquainted with the communication fundamentals in the field.
