商品描述
This book explains engineering practice, what engineers actually do in their work. The first part explains how to find paid engineering work and prepare for an engineering career. The second part explains the fundamentals of engineering practice, including how to gain access to technical knowledge, how to gain the willing collaboration of other people to make things happen, and how to work safely in hazardous environments. Other chapters explain engineering aspects of project management missed in most courses, how to create commercial value from engineering work and estimate costs, and how to navigate cultural complexities successfully. Later chapters provide guidance on sustainability, time management and avoiding the most common frustrations encountered by engineers at work. This book has been written for engineering students, graduates and novice engineers. Supervisors, mentors and human resources professionals will also find the book helpful to guide early-career engineers and assess their progress. Engineering schools will find the book helpful to help students prepare for professional internships and also for creating authentic practice and assessment exercises.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書解釋了工程實踐,工程師在工作中實際上做了什麼。第一部分說明了如何找到有薪的工程工作以及如何為工程職業做好準備。第二部分解釋了工程實踐的基本原則,包括如何獲取技術知識、如何獲得他人的合作以促成事情的發生,以及如何在危險環境中安全工作。其他章節則解釋了大多數課程中未提及的專案管理的工程方面,如何從工程工作中創造商業價值和估算成本,以及如何成功應對文化複雜性。後面的章節提供了有關可持續性、時間管理以及避免工程師在工作中遇到的最常見挫折的指導。這本書是為工程學生、畢業生和初學工程的工程師撰寫的。主管、導師和人力資源專業人士也會發現這本書對於指導早期職業生涯的工程師和評估他們的進展非常有幫助。工程學校會發現這本書對於幫助學生準備專業實習以及創建真實的實踐和評估練習也非常有用。
作者簡介
Emeritus Professor James Trevelyan is an engineer, educator, researcher and recently became a start-up entrepreneur.
He is CEO of Close Comfort, a tech start-up introducing new energy saving, low emissions air conditioning technology to Australia, Indonesia, Pakistan, and other countries with a large potential global market.
His research on engineering practice helped define Engineers Australia professional competencies for chartered engineers. His book "The Making of an Expert Engineer" and advances in understanding how engineers contribute commercial value are influencing the future of engineering education in universities and workplaces. Another book, "30 Second Engineering", is helping to build greater awareness of the key importance of engineering and will reach a global audience.
He is best known internationally for pioneering research that resulted in sheep shearing robots from 1975 till 1993 and for the first industrial robot that could be remotely operated via the internet in 1994. He received the leading international award for robotics research, equivalent to the Fields medal in mathematics.
In 2018 he was awarded West Australian of the Year in the professions category in recognition of his achievements.
作者簡介(中文翻譯)
榮譽教授詹姆斯·特雷維利安(James Trevelyan)是一位工程師、教育家、研究者,最近成為了一名創業家。他是Close Comfort的首席執行官,這是一家科技初創公司,向澳大利亞、印尼、巴基斯坦及其他擁有巨大潛在全球市場的國家引入新的節能、低排放空調技術。他在工程實踐方面的研究幫助定義了澳大利亞工程師協會(Engineers Australia)對特許工程師的專業能力要求。他的著作《專家工程師的形成》(The Making of an Expert Engineer)以及對工程師如何貢獻商業價值的理解進展,正在影響大學和工作場所的工程教育未來。另一部著作《30秒工程》(30 Second Engineering)則有助於提高對工程關鍵重要性的認識,並將觸及全球受眾。他在國際上最為人知的是他在1975年至1993年間開創性的研究,開發出羊毛剪毛機器人,以及在1994年研發出首個可通過互聯網遠程操作的工業機器人。他因在機器人研究方面的卓越成就獲得了國際領先的獎項,該獎項相當於數學界的菲爾茲獎(Fields medal)。2018年,他因其成就被授予西澳大利亞年度專業人士獎。
