Material Detail

These open textbooks are being utilized in an Engineering Management course for undergraduate Marine/Facilities Engineering Technology students by Ryan Storz, M.S., at California State University Maritime Academy.  The open textbooks provide a foundation overview to the manager's job, as well as planning, organizing and leading within an organization.  The main motivation to adopt open textbooks was that this is the only management related course taught to Engineering Technology students and the original textbook was expensive. It felt a bit overpriced for an introductory course textbook considering all of the free textbooks available online and access to industry journals through the Cal Maritime Library. Most students accessed the textbooks via a PDF supplied on the course learning management system, Moodle.
