Description
Together with the 'Engineering Applications' student text, this pack provides a complete resource for undergraduate EA courses. To enable lecturers to have control over the information available to students all the project briefs for the course, and supporting handouts appear in the Tutor's Resource Pack, but not in the textbook. Guidance on running the projects is also provided. The whole pack is freely photocopiable within the purchasing institution, making the course both economical and highly flexible.

Audience
Lecturers and course coordinators for Engineering Applications courses within BSc, BEng and HNC/D programmes.
