About this title

From the Publisher

One of the first steps an engineer takes in his transition from student to practicing engineer is to take and pass the Engineer-in-Training examination (sometimes called the EIT or Engineering Fundamentals exam). Written by two renowned engineering educators and professionals, this is a comprehensive source of information relevant to this examination and its contents. Outlines the examination, its structure and technical content. Each examination subject area is methodically reviewed; problems and step-by-step solutions follow. Will assist engineers in preparing for careers as productive engineering professionals.

From the Inside Flap

This book was designed to serve one very important, primary function: to help you prepare for and pass the EIT exam. Modeled on the format of the 1991 revised EIT exam and including more solved problems than any other manual in the field, it puts every possible resource at your disposal. Its authors are registered engineers and educators with years of experience in preparing students for the EIT exam, and they have made every effort to produce the most straightforward, concise and, above all, user-friendly guide possible, without skimping on important information. Engineer-In-Training Examination Review begins with a thorough discussion of the structure and technical content of the exam. Each of the subsequent eleven chapters focuses on one major topic covered in the exam and begins with a short review of the fundamental principles that are both conceptually important and practical. Principles are presented compactly and directly—detailed derivations are avoided—and each is supported by examples of its practical applications. The remainder of each chapter comprises multiple choice problems (generously complemented with diagrams and illustrations) modeled on those found in recent EIT exams. And, unlike other review manuals, Engineer-in-Training Examination Review provides the solutions to all of the 550 problems given-that means you avoid the added expense of a separate solution manual. Acknowledged as a standard in the field for over 20 years, this new Third Edition has been completely updated and expanded to provide you with a full arsenal of information and test-taking strategies. Now including chapters on computer programming, structure of matter and materials science, and including more problems and their solutions than any other manual available, Engineer-In-Training Examination Review is the best, most economical resource for anyone preparing for the EIT exam.
