The Importance of communication skills for engineers

 “Without clear lines of communication, our ideas would stay within our own small development teams instead of becoming mature products. While this is obvious to those of us who have become experienced engineers, the real question is: Why is it lost to us when we are engineering students?” Dr. Akbar R Khan, Software Systems Engineer, USA, “Good Communication Is Essential...” (2014)


As engineering students, we tend to work harder on our specialised module rather than the interest of English and other communication modules. Communication is certainly important to ensure that our engineering projects/ideas are correctly proposed. Hence, students should be equipped with the right communication skills before they started working in the real world. For example, students could train for good presentation skills, and learn how to interpret different ideas to link up with the audience.
