RCEL 505: LEADING ENGINEERING ECONOMICS
Fall 2026 · Section 901 · CRN 12726
This course will explore economic analysis of capital expenditure decisions, financial mathematics, microeconomics, and decision-making under risk and uncertainty. Topics covered in this course include time value of money, analysis of alternatives using net present value and internal rate of return, depreciation, taxes, and inflation. Computational approaches, such as probabilistic design in engineering designs, which connect randomly varying design parameters to economic impact, will sometimes be considered based on course composition. Engineering ethics case studies that involve engineering economics will be explored as well. Mutually Exclusive: Cannot register for RCEL 505 if student has credit for CEVE 322/CEVE 528/ENGI 303/ENGI 528.
