Self-introduction and interest in engineering

-
Subject: Self-introduction Dear Prof Blackstone, I hope this email finds you well. My name is Treven Fong and I am currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering. Prior to this, I completed a diploma in Digital and Precision Engineering, where I gained fundamental knowledge in the field of engineering. I am particularly interested in developing infrastructure solutions that enhance urban living while tackling challenges such as climate change and sustainable development. Hands-on lab experiments and projects have allowed me to experience the practical applications of engineering, which further fuel my passion for the field. Beyond academics, I enjoy playing team strategy games like League of Legends and Counter-Strike. These games require effective collaboration and communication, and I often take the initiative to voice strategies and adapt to dynamic situations. Additionally, I enjoy single-player games that involve critical thinking, such as puzzle-solving games, which ...

Why having good communication skills is important in the field of engineering?

-
  “Employers identify communication as one of the basic competencies every graduate  should have, asserting that the ability to communicate is valuable for obtaining employment and maintaining successful job performance.” Sherwyn Morreale, Michael Osborn & Judy Pearson, Professors of Communication (2000) This quote made by professors emphasizes the critical role having good communication skills play a part in securing a job for engineers. Employers value communication skills as it displays your ability to work as a team and meeting objectives. These skills will increase overall productivity and efficiency, and eliminating risks and errors at the same time. The ability to communicate as a team also allows you to convey difficult and complex project ideas to those who do not have a technical background. Thus, strong communication skills play a vital part for engineers to work efficiently, avoids mistakes, and achieve desired outcomes in their field of work.
