MARCH SYMPOSIUM
professional and product liability
The Minnesota section of ASME is offering a full day
symposium focusing on professional and product liability. We
are drawing upon the experience of local attorneys and
professional engineers for this presentation.
Professional and product
liability applies to all engineers, no matter what
industrial sector they practice in and without regard to
their specified responsibilities. The material to be
presented will be totally practical and not likely found in
any text book anywhere. (more)
