Historically, most energy models were reasonably equipped to assess the impact of classical policies, such as a subsidy or change in taxation. However, these tools are often insufficient to assess the impact of alternative policy instruments. We evalu- ate the so-called engineering economic models used to assess future industrial en- ergy use. Engineering economic models include the level of detail commonly needed to model the new types of policies considered. We explore approaches to improve the realism and policy relevance of engineering economic modeling frameworks. We also explore solutions to strengthen the policy usefulness of engineering eco- nomic analysis that can be built from a framework of multidisciplinary coopera- tion. The review discusses the main modeling approaches currently used and eval- uates the weaknesses in current models.

  • Engineering Economy for Economists
    AC 2008-2866: ENGINEERING ECONOMY FOR ECONOMISTS Peter Boerger, Engineering Economic Associates, LLC Peter Boerger is an independent consultant specializing in solving problems that incorporate both technological and economic aspects. He has worked and published for over 20 years on the interface between engineering, economics and public policy. His education began with an undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, adding a Master of Science degree in a program of Technology and Public Policy from Purdue University and a Ph.D. in Engineering Economics from the School of Industrial Engineering at Purdue University. His firm, Engineering Economic Associates, is located in Indianapolis, IN. Page 13.503.1 Page © American Society for Engineering Education, 2008 Engineering Economy for Economists 1. Abstract The purpose of engineering economics is generally accepted to be helping engineers (and others) to make decisions regarding capital investment decisions. A less recognized but potentially fruitful purpose is to help economists better understand the workings of the economy by providing an engineering (as opposed to econometric) view of the underlying workings of the economy. This paper provides a review of some literature related to this topic and some thoughts on moving forward in this area. 2. Introduction Engineering economy is inherently an interdisciplinary field, sitting, as the name implies, between engineering and some aspect of economics. One has only to look at the range of academic departments represented by contributors to The Engineering Economist to see the many fields with which engineering economy already relates. As with other interdisciplinary fields, engineering economy has the promise of huge advancements and the risk of not having a well-defined “home base”—the risk of losing resources during hard times in competition with other academic departments/specialties within the same department.

  • Economics and Engineering” Pedro Garcia Duarte and Yann Giraud
    Introduction: From “Economics as Engineering” to “Economics and Engineering” Pedro Garcia Duarte and Yann Giraud The Transformation of Economics into an Engineering Science: From Analogies to Interactions In recent years, economists, who in the past had mostly insisted on their discipline’s strength as a rigorous social science, have turned to its larger role in transforming society. As early as 2002, Alvin Roth, the Stan- ford-educated economist who received the Nobel memorial prize in 2012, has claimed that members of his community should think of themselves as engineers rather than scientists. By this he meant that they should not be interested solely in the making of theoretical models but also in con- fronting these models with the complexities of real-life situations, which is what engineering is allegedly about. He pointed to the rise of the new sub eld of market design, which he had helped develop, as characteristic of an engineer’s stance and provided several examples of engineering practices applied to economics: the design of labor clearinghouses—such as the entry-level labor market for American physicians—and that of the Federal Communications Commission spectrum auctions (Roth 2002). We want to thank the Center for the History of Political Economy and Duke University Press for their support, as well as the many referees who helped us during the editorial process. Yann Giraud wishes to point out that his research has been supported by the project Labex MME-DII (ANR11–LBX-0023–01). Pedro Duarte acknowledges the nancial support of the Institute for Advanced Studies, at the Université de Cergy-Pontoise, for visiting professorships (2016, 2018) that were critical for the shaping of this joint project.

  • Engineering Economics and the Law
    Session 1339 Engineering Economics and the Law J. Timothy Cromley BANK ONE CORPORATION Abstract Patent and Trade Secret Law is an area of the Law that is very important to engineering and the economy, but it is not among the topics prominently covered (if at all) in a typical course in Engineering Economy (or “Engineering Economics”). To help remedy this apparent deficiency in course coverage, the author presents: a rationale for inclusion of this topic in such a course, an overview of patent and trade secret law, classroom suggestions, and steps for valuing a patent. 1. Why Patent & Trade Secret Law is an Apt Topic for Courses in Engineering Economics It is widely recognized that relationships exist between law and economics . The University of Chicago, for example, has had a Journal of Law and Economics since 1958. 1 The Encyclopedia of Law and Economics , which is published in the Netherlands, has two Nobel Laureates in Economics on its Editorial Board. 2 Because important relationships exist between law and economics , it is appropriate to inquire: What area(s) of the law (if any) are most relevant to a course in engineering economics? Environmental law might be a candidate, as it is relevant to environmental engineers, but it is too specialized to be of general interest in a course on engineering economics. Contract law is a possibility, but its appeal is too broad to properly fit into a focused course like engineering economics. Many other areas of the law are not good fits for similar reasons. Patent law and product liability law are good candidates, but as between these two areas of law, patent law is more highly relevant to both engineering and economics because of its unique links to both technology and monopoly .

    Engineering Economics Overview and Application in Process Engineering Industry 10.490 ICE Kangyi MAO 02 OCT 2006 WHAT IS ECONOMICS? “Economics is the study of how people and society choose to employ scarce resources that could have alternative uses in order to produce various commodities and to distribute them for consumption, now or in the future, …” from Paul Samuelson and William Nordhaus, Economics, 12th Ed., McGraw- Hill, New York, 1985. WHAT IS ENGINEERING ECONOMICS? The application of economic principles to engineering problems, for example in comparing the comparative costs of two alternative capital projects or in determining the optimum engineering course from the cost aspect. 1 WHY DO WE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS?! • Optimal cost-effectiveness • Alternative possibilities (Cal Tech Industries!) WHAT DO WE NEED TO KNOW? • Time value of money • Estimation of cash flows • Quantitative measurements of profitability • Systematic comparison of alternatives Time Value of Money The fundamentals underlying all financial activities! 2 TIME VALUE OF MONEY • Why does money have time value? – The owner of the money must defer its use. Thus, the person using the money must pay for deferring the benefits. – An alternative use of the money could have generated other benefits, e.g. interests. • How do we characterize time value? –We use an interest rate, so that the effect of time is proportional to the total amount of money involved and positively related with the length of time.

  • Engineering Microeconomics Fall 2017 (3 Credits)
    Ferraro, 570.334 Syllabus Syllabus Environmental Health and Engineering 570.334 Engineering Microeconomics Fall 2017 (3 credits) Description The Official Boring Description: The course introduces the principles of microeconomics and engineering economics, and applications of those principles to environmental engineering and public policy analysis. The financial and economic implications of engineering designs and control policies are critical to their success. We introduce principles of engineering economics and microeconomics (demand and production theory) and their uses in engineering decision making. The Professor’s Long-winded Description: No matter what line of work you ultimately choose, you will bring no more useful skill to most tasks than an ability to understand the incentives people face and how they are likely to respond to them. A well taught introductory course in microeconomics can teach you more about human behavior in a single term than virtually any other course in the university. Throughout the course, I will try to develop economic intuition by means of examples and applications drawn from everyday experience. My aim is to encourage you to see features of the human-made social and physical landscape as a reflection of an implicit or explicit cost-benefit calculation. Many introductory microeconomics courses (including the one I took as an undergraduate) attempt to present students with far too many concepts in a far too mathematical and mechanical manner. The unfortunate result is that, when the dust settles, most students leave these courses never having fully grasped the essence of economics. For example, the opportunity cost concept, which is central to our understanding of what it means to think like an economist, is just one among hundreds of concepts that go by in a blur.
