Rattan and Klingbeil s Introductory Mathematics for Engineering Applications is designed to help improve engineering student success through application-driven, just-in-time engineering math instruction. Intended to be taught by engineering faculty rather than math faculty, the text emphasizes using math to solve engineering problems instead of focusing on derivations and theory. This text implements an applied approach to teaching math concepts that are essential to introductory engineering courses that has been proven to improve the retention of students in engineering majors from the first to second year and beyond.
Kuldip Rattan is a Professor of Electrical Engineering at Wright State University. He holds a Ph.D from the University of Kentucky. Nathan Klingbeil is an Associate Professor of Mechanical and Materials Engineering at Wright State University. He received his Ph. D from Carnegie Mellon in 1998.
