Talk:Applied engineering (field)

Redundancy[edit]

The first 4 pages of google hits are company web sites. is this really a recognized academic field, or marketing-speak? --Wtshymanski (talk) 22:13, 12 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There are several new applied engineering programs coming on line and being accredited by ATMAE: http://atmae.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=227&Itemid=48

Applied Engineering positions had typically been filled by technologists and traditional engineers, but industry prefers to give engineering titles for this critical role. The need for this type of education is there. Traditional engineers are not trained with formal management/leadership experiences and lack the hands on process training to make them as effective straight out of college for these applied positions. We historically have not produced nearly as many technologists as we do traditional engineers even though the need in industry is present.

This page is not redundant - you are watching an emerging new field or perhaps a rebirth of the technologist with a more contemporary name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.54.218.167 (talk) 00:52, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder if there's a Department of Theoretical Engineering out there, some where? What's the difference between this and "engineering management"? Is this just another manifestation of title inflation? --Wtshymanski (talk) 16:26, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Formal definitions of Applied Engineering and Engineering Management may be found on the ATMAE website. Here is the direct link: http://atmae.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=227&Itemid=48 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.235.158.225 (talk) 17:22, 30 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Engineering Management is usually studied (MS) after obtaining a traditional engineering degree first and thus uses calculus as the primary mathematical engine. Applied Engineering is emerging at the undergraduate level (although some are popping up at the graduate level too) and these programs blend practical hand-on process skills with statistical methods and algebra/trig/geometry as their mathematical focus. Applied Engineers often have one level of calculus, but they are not design engineers and are more concerned with the implementation of the design and the management of that said process. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.152.127.1 (talk) 17:58, 30 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
