Overview

This course provides an overview of the Engineering Department’s function in the context of a company’s business. It explores the particular business connections the Engineering Department has with other departments in the organization (whether it is a small or large company) and with outside business entities, such as suppliers, clients, outside professional organizations, etc. And it recommends best approaches to develop and maintain these connections. The course shows how the activities of the Engineering Department help a company's overall business.

As technical people, engineers need to be able to interact successfully with other technical and non-technical personnel, both those within the company and those belonging to outside organizations. A successful rapport with these business partners will increase the Engineering Department's efficiency and contribute to the overall success of the company.

A few examples are provided that help illustrate the main ideas of the course.

This course is useful for new engineers who need to understand how the Engineering Department fits in the overall organization of the company and for engineers who would like to acquire additional organizational skills that can help them progress their career into Engineering Management. It also helps new engineering managers navigate their work challenges.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of ten (10) questions at the end of this course to earn PDH credits.
