Principles of Applied Engineering places your students in the driver’s seat
as they explore the diverse fields of engineering through scenarios and
group projects that engage them in the problem-solving process.

• Beginning with the first chapter, an engaging opening scenario
and design task introduce critical problem-solving concepts and
hands-on activities.
• the chapters that follow help students explore and interact
with the discipline, professional concepts, and various fields of
engineering, including a broad range of associated technology.
• a final chapter brings it all together with a scenario and engineering Applied Engineering
design task to help students demonstrate their learning and make
informed career decisions.
Design Activities and Projects throughout the text engage students in
hands-on practice with problem-solving, critical thinking, and application
of chapter content, including robotic design, windmill power, chemical
technology, and more.
chapter design is streamlined to help make studying easier:

• clear presentation of academic language throughout each chapter.
• highly visual design, including color photos, line drawings, and
bulleted lists, creates a clear, easy-to-read presentation.

• one-column design and chunked content help students assess
chapter content and grasp the scope of the chapter.
• end-of-chapter review and assessment activities, such as vocabulary
building, content review, knowledge application, and critical
thinking questions, guide student learning and provide assessment
opportunities.
