Abstract
The Challenge: “Globalization has collapsed time and distance and raised the notion that someone anywhere on earth can do your job more cheaply. Can Americans rise to the challenge on this leveled playing field?” --Thomas Friedman
A Response: Strategic engineering, namely, the realization of complex engineered systems for changing markets in a collaborative, globally disturbed environment.
Question: Are you interested in exploring how we could educate engineers who are effective at creating value in an interconnected world?
Invitation: If the answer to the preceding question is “yes,” please join me in exploring Strategic Engineering: Educating Engineers to Create Value in an Interconnected World.
