Engineers search options to issues, and together with the technical elements, the financial viability of every potential resolution is generally thought-about from a particular viewpoint that displays its financial utility to a constituency. Essentially, engineering economics entails formulating, estimating, and evaluating the financial outcomes when alternate options to perform an outlined function can be found.

Since engineering is a vital a part of the manufacturing sector of the economic system, engineering industrial economics is a vital a part of industrial or enterprise economics. For that reason, the foremost programs which are lined on this course are:

• The economics of the administration, operation, and development and profitability of engineering companies;
• Macro-level engineering financial tendencies and points;
• Engineering product markets and demand influences; and
• The event, advertising, and financing of latest engineering applied sciences and merchandise.
