Industry has broadened the job scope for engineers. Engineers have to perform multiple projects in terms of technical and non-technical. Technical skills require integration of communication skills in modern industry. This research attempted to discover communication skills significance for novice engineers. Also, it explored communication skill training needed for novice engineers. A purposive sampling research design was employed to draw the results. Twenty (20) final year engineering students participated in this qualitative study. The study research instrument was focus group interviews.Findings described that communication skills play a significant role for engineers in the work environment of modern industry. Moreover, inadequate communication skills training are provided to engineering students during study time. Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) should emphasize upon engineering universities of Pakistan to train engineering students in hard and soft skills.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
