Synopsis "Introduction to Basic Concepts in Engineering: for adept high school students"
Explore the profession of engineering, and learn the tools you need to start strong in college. This book will introduce you to the engineering profession and give you an idea of what it will be like to major in engineering in college. It covers the wide range of engineering specialties, various career pathways, and the overall benefits of the earning an engineering degree. Yet this book aims to do more than simply build your excitement about studying engineering. It also means to provide an introduction to the tools that you will need to start strong once you begin college. This text provides a very basic introduction and overview of what we call 'engineering fundamentals' - the concepts that every engineer needs to know. Topics are presented in a straightforward manner that avoids the need for complicated mathematics, allowing for a focus on understanding and applying the concepts, rather than getting bogged down in the technical solution.
