The complete, up-to-date guide to project management for
engineering and technology that fully reflects the latest PMBOK
standards. Project Management for Engineering and Technology is the
up-to-date guide to engineering and technology-specific project
management that fully reflects the latest standards in the "Project
Management Body of Knowledge" (PMBOK). Unlike competitive texts, it
covers not just project management process skills, but also crucial
people skills such as negotiation, personal time management, change
management, diversity, and overcoming adversity. Topics covered
include: scheduling, cost estimating, budgets, human resources,
communication, procurement, quality plans, risk management, team
building, project monitoring/control, and closeout. Readers will
find up-to-date case studies related to the full spectrum of
engineering and technology projects, including design,
manufacturing, quality improvement, and process development. They
will master skills they can apply in assignments ranging from the
design and manufacture of the largest jetliner to the smallest
circuit board. Every chapter contains a case study that illustrates
the complexities and challenges of real-world engineering and
technology projects, and shows why effective project management is
so critical. Teaching and Learning Experience This book will help
engineering and technology professionals quickly master project
management best practices. It provides: Comprehensive engineering
and technology-specific coverage fully aligned to the Project
Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK): Thoroughly in accordance with
the latest standards in the "Project Management Body of Knowledge"
(PMBOK), and focused entirely on engineering and technology
Up-to-date coverage of realistic engineering and technology
projects and project management challenges: Illuminates the
specific realities of engineering and technology project
management, with realistic case studies of complex, challenging
projects throughout Hands-on focus, comprehensive pedagogical
tools, and support for flexible approaches to teaching and
learning: Supported by comprehensive pedagogical tools, and
