The second question is often more difficult for engineers to answer affirmatively. This may be true because economic principles were addressed only as an afterthought in their engineering coursework, or possibly not at all Those students who were fortunate enough to have taken a course in engineering economy have little difficulty answering the Will it pay...? question, which is frequently just as important a question as Will it work? This statement strikes many engineering students as unbelievable; yet later on, their professional careers will be significantly affected by their ability to deal competently with the economic aspects of engineering.
