<br/><br/> Cornerstone Engineering Designcombines a wide range of topics such as design, engineering design, project management, team dynamics and project-based learning into a single introductory work. The text focuses particularly on conceptual design, providing a brief and yet comprehensive introduction to design methodology and project management tools to students early on in their careers.
