This paper describes an effort to enrich the Engineering Economics course by adding readings, class discussion topics and a research paper. The goal is to help students understand the nonquantitative side of engineering economics. In particular, students are exposed to examples of using engineering or business techniques to benefit people in need, and to introduce notions of risk and the quality movement.
