Task 3: The Importance of communication skills for engineers

“Communication skills are an essential component in the education of engineering students to facilitate not just students’ education but also to prepare them for their future careers.”

Marc Riemer, Faculty of Engineering, Monash University (2007)


The quote explains that communication skills are a key part of an engineering student’s education. It’s not just about learning technical knowledge; students also need to be able to explain their ideas clearly and work well with others. Good communication helps them understand what they are learning and makes it easier to solve problems with their classmates and teachers.


In the future, when they become engineers, these skills will be just as important. Engineers often work in teams, and they need to communicate their ideas to other engineers, clients, or managers who may not understand the technical details. Being able to explain their work clearly can make a big difference in their careers, helping them to be more successful in their projects and collaborations. Communication is not just an extra skill, but a necessary part of being a good engineer.

Initially, I considered pursuing physiotherapy due to my love for sports, but I ultimately chose engineering. My passion for travel and exploration has driven my interest in the aviation industry. I am particularly motivated to challenge gender norms in engineering, showing that women can succeed in this field just as much as men. Engineering allows me to apply my hands-on skills to solve real-world problems and make a meaningful impact on people’s lives, which I find deeply fulfilling. In terms of communication, one of my strengths is being an attentive listener, particularly in group settings. I tend to listen car
