Goal(s)

Refine professional written and oral communication skills through group project work to prepare engineering students for their professional responsibilities.

  • Know how to communicate and argue about a process or project; know how to respond thoughtfully and constructively to general or professional questions.
  • Know how to participate in a round table discussion and negotiate with professional partners.
  • Master the appropriate use of common professional visual aids and know how to adapt your speech to your audience.
  • Know how to take notes and write an abstract-type document.
  • Share general, scientific, and technical knowledge and know how to discuss it.
  • Open up to the international scene thanks to a new teacher from a different background who will also stimulate the group's creativity through their personal approach.
