Engineers need communication skills in order to transfer precise information and messages to their colleagues, clients and suppliers in written and oral form; to present themselves, their work and results; to learn and teach effectively. During the course, students learn how to effectively find relevant information and learn; to transmit information and messages with lectures, presentation materials, text and graphics; how to create effective soundtrack, photography and video. Meetings and negotiations are used daily in group work and collaboration, so students learn to recognize them in time, prepare for them well and execute them effectively. Through the exercises, they learn listening and talk actively; to perceive causes of misunderstanding and conflicts between people and learn how to avoid and resolve them. An important part of engineers’ education is to introduce themselves via the curriculum vitae and to understand, appreciate and respect cultural differences and norms.
