I have exciting news to share this week! My very first book, Is There an Engineer Inside You? Is being released in an updated and completely revised edition. To be exact, this is the third edition. It now covers 32 different types of engineering, how to succeed in engineering school, women and minorities in engineering, engineering careers that make you say “wow!”, how much money engineers make and much more. This book is the best reference on engineering careers in the marketplace (I may be a little biased but it’s better than everything else that I have seen).
I wrote the first edition when I was in engineering school. It was the book I wished I’d had when making the decision to go to school. I wrote it because I wanted my fellow students to know what they were getting into and have a clear idea about all the amazing pathways that engineers could follow. Making a lot of money was such a popular reason to go to engineering school that I worried my friends would drop out when things got hard (technically and emotionally). I thought that my reference book would help provide a stronger foundation and offer more compelling reasons for choosing an engineering education. Given the popularity of the first two editions, I like to think that it's helping thousands of students.
To celebrate this momentous occasion I have several opportunities:
- Sitting here are stacks of 40% off coupons for this new third edition. If you want to give them out to your clubs, teams or students; slip them inside conference bags or include with giveaways, just let me know and I’ll send you a stack.
- For every educator that orders this new edition, you will also receive a PowerPoint presentation that you can use in class to explain about engineering careers. It’s colorful, engaging, and designed to save you time.
- Last but not least, I will provide a free presentation or workshop at your conference, meeting, or event for every group or organization that orders at least 160 of these books.
Please join my celebration – Is There an Engineer Inside You? was the start of it all. Without this book, the Engineering Education Service Center wouldn’t exist and I would be doing something else with my life. It makes a great gift for the future engineer in your life and should be included in every classroom or school library. You can't go wrong, every student will find something useful within the pages.
Check it out - you can read the reviews, see the table of contents and preview part of chapter one online. Stay tuned, more opportunities are coming soon....
