economics for engineering essay

You will submit your Expert Report to this assignment.

In your final communication assignment for this course, you will make a recommendation regarding where a new wind turbine manufacturing facility should be built: The United States (Iowa), or Denmark?  Your recommendation will be based on the research, analysis, comparison, and decision making that you and your team conduct throughout the semester.

For this assignment, you will take a deep dive into one of the following areas, becoming your team's expert in that area  (you will have already decided each team member's focus in the first workshop): Politics or Environment. You will research the various aspects of your area for both the United States and Denmark, and make comparisons and conduct analysis that will be key in your team's final recommendation.

The research and analysis you conduct for this assignment will contribute to your official facility location recommendation at the end of the semester.

Please note: This is NOT a team assignment. Students will conduct independent research and analysis, and will synthesize information and write their own individual reports, using their own brains and thoughts.

In your first meeting, your team will have decided which team members will focus on which topic: Political or Environmental. Every team must have at least two team members focusing on each topic.
