An Introduction to Engineering: What it takes to make it - Bernard Smith

This is a specialized textbook intended to help the beginning college student manage the transition to college engineering. Whether you are fresh out of high school or have been in industry for years, entering an engineering program can be a bit crazy. Mathematics, engineering, and science professors are notorious for throwing equations on the board, and then, staring at a bleak-looking classroom full of terrified students, stamping on the floor, getting red in the face, and yelling, You should already know this! This is where this book comes in. From trigonometry to circuits, from career planning to professional ethics, the authors cover a little of everything, to make sure you have just what you need to succeed.
