Basic Engineering Science

This textbook is based on a different paradigm for organizing an engineering science core - a systems, accounting and modeling approach - that emphasizes the common, underlying concepts of engineering science. By focusing on the underlying concepts and stressing the similarities between subjects that are often perceived by students (and taught by faculty) as unconnected topics, this approach provides engineering students a foundational framework for recognizing and building connections.
